What's Your Keyboard Layout?

How does this work? The only way I can do this is using individual binds for each character.

It's like this:
bind x shadow
alias sonic "bind z tails ; bind x shadow; skin FSonic; color blue"
alias shadow "bind z sonic; bind x silver; skin Shadow; color black"

Basically, the alias command allows you to make sub-commands sort of. For example, when you press the X key, it runs the shadow command, changing your character to Shadow, coloured black. But along with that, it binds the z key to the sonic command (where it switches you to Sonic) and the x key binded to the silver command. So when I switch to the sonic command, the z key gets binded to a tails command, while the x key gets binded to the shadow command.
 
Oh I know how to do that (I have a look backwards bind that works like that, as you do), but I was under the impression that yours worked regardless of what custom characters you had loaded. I guess not, heh. Sorry!
 
Movement (Strafing, I turn with the mouse.) - WASD
Jump - Space
Spin - Left Shift
Ringtoss/Ringtoss Normal - Left/Right mouse buttons, respectively.
Weapon Change - Mousewheel
Custom 1 - Q
Custom 2 - 2
Custom 3 - E
Tossflag - Middle mouse button (Clicking the wheel)

And the rest of it is set to their defaults.

Basically I've just mapped my Keyboard buttons onto my controller, except for the analog stick. The bindings on the topmost buttons (LB, RB, LT, RT) vary from gamemode and/or character. When I pick sylveon as my character I map RT to Custom 1 to make moonblasts comfortably, as an example.

Here is a little demonstration of my controller bindings. It works extremly well and I tend to use my Steam Controller more often than my kbd+mouse. With that said I do still use my mouse and keyboard for accuracies sake.

I use a standard WASD for movement and Space for jumping and control for spin.

The custom keys are scattered around my keyboard in a random fashion.
 
  • Forward - Up arrow, W
  • Reverse - Down arrow, S
  • Look Left - Left arrow
  • Look Right - Right arrow
  • Spin - Z
  • Jump - Space
  • Strafe Left - A
  • Strafe Right - D

And thats it
 
Forward - Up arrow, W
Reverse - Down arrow, S
Look Left - Left arrow
Look Right - Right arrow
Strafe Left - A
Strafe Right - D
Jump - Space, X
Spin - Mouse 2, Z
Ring toss - Mouse 1, Q
Toss flag - Wheel 1 Up
Change Camera - Mouse 3 ( Mouse's scroll button ) , C
Custom 1 - F
Custom 2 - G
Custom 3 - H

I just normally play with arrow buttons, but if I play shooting gamemode (match, tag, H&S, CTF), I use the mouse and WASD.

Standard WASD, but from there things get unconventional.

Shift - Spin
Space - Center View
Mouse 1 - Jump
Mouse 2 - Ring Toss
L - Toss Flag
Q and E and scroll wheel - Next and Previous Weapon

Everything else is default I think.
 
I'm a bit of a strange player, or at least that's what some people told me when they asked about my keyboard layout.
When I'm not using a controller, WASD is my go-to for movement, arrow keys for camera controls, with LShift and space for spin and jump respectively.
not sure if anyone else uses this control scheme, but it works well for me!
 
WASD - Movement
Space - Jump
Left Shift - Spin
Home - Centre view
Left Mouse - Ring Toss
Right Mouse - Normal Ring Toss
Middle Mouse - Toss Flag
V - Chasecam Toggle
Forward Slash - Talk
Tilde - Console
Pause - Pause (duh)
1-9 - Ring Select
Scroll Up/Down - Next/Previous Ring
E/R/T - Custom 1/2/3
 
Mine is
WASD = mouvement
Left click = jump
Right click = spin dash
Middle Mouse = Normal Ring Toss
Wheel up and wheel Down = Ring Toss
T = Talk key
Y = Team-Talk key
Z,X and C = Custom 1,2 and 3
V = Chasecam Toggle
Left Shift = Centre view
P = Pause key
(I know this is a old thread)
 
Since this thread is kinda just here, I figure I might as well post my configuration.


WASD - Move+Strafe
Arrow keys - Move+Turn
Space - Jump
E - Spin
Mouse1 - Ring Toss
Mouse2 - Ring Toss (Normal)
Mouse3 / ' - Toss Flag
LShift - Center View
V - Toggle Chasecam
T/Y - Chat/Team chat respectively
Pause - Pause
Z/X/C - Custom 1/2/3


It's pretty conventional, yeah.
 
Here's my binds, with the kicker here being that I don't use a mouse :>

ARROWUP&ARROWDOWN - Move Forward/Backward
ARROWLEFT&ARROWRIGHT - Turn Left/Right
Z - Jump
X - Spin
C - Fire
A - Strafe Left
D - Strafe Right
LShift - CUSTOM1
LCtrl - CUSTOM2
LAlt - CUSTOM3
(For Kart:
Q - CUSTOM1
E - CUSTOM2
W - CUSTOM3)
P (PrtScr for Kart) - Pause
Esc - Pause Menu

I also have controller binds, on the off-chance that I use a controller :v
Also, whenever I use a controller, I use directionchar, which feels like it was m a d e for a controller



LStick - Move Forwards/Backwards, Strafe Left/Right
RStick - Turn Left/Right, Look Around
LT - Spin
RT - Jump
LB/RB - Fire
A/X/Y - Custom Buttons
START - Pause
SELECT - Menu
 
Mine is similar to 2.1.19 SRB2.

Arrow keys: Forward, Backwards, Turn
X: Spin
': Toss Flag

Already posted my controls for vanilla SRB2 which I think are still the same as they were (edit~ exactly 4 years ago), so here, take a gander at my current layout for Kart since I happen to play it with a keyboard.

Accelerate - Keypad 7
Turn Left/Right - A/D
Drift - Keypad 0
Brake - RCtrl
Use/Throw Item - S
Aim Forward/Backward - Up/Down Arrow
Look Backward - LShift
Chat - Spacebar
Become Spectator - L
Custom Action 1 - Left Arrow
Custom Action 2 - Right Arrow
Custom Action 3 - nothing ("---")
