Key binds

Post by Jenny »

Hi...I'm a new player and would like to know how do you set binds for quick 180 degree turns? And is this acceptable or considered cheating?

I'm getting frustrated with these quick turns ppl do that I can't!

This is acheived by binding two keys to the same movement. Then, pressing both keys in rapid sucession causes the quick turn.

Incase you didnt understand because you dont read english well because your from a different country not trying to be mean,

So if you wanted to do that you would make like example j and k both right turns and n and m both left turns.
When you wanted to do a 180 you hit eaither both right or left keys at the same time.

ok ,,,So you don't have to fiddle with files in default.cfg?

I was wondering if one key could be bound to have two left of right turns in rapid succession to execute a 180 degree turn.

I appreciate your help, I'm so not a computer person person.

No, you cant get one key unless you use a macro recorder, its too much work, I wouldnt worry about it Jenny, just play the game and have fun :)
