I recently learned that the INSERT key, when held, will change the TURN keys to act like MOVE keys, which makes you strafe (move sideways) with the arrow or numpad keys. I thought this was great, but what I really wanted was it to toggle between strafe and move mode so I don't have to hold the INSERT key down all the time. So I created a couple of keybind files to make it work as a toggle. It really is just 2 simple files you need to create and one line added to the autorun file. To do this simply go to your Steam game directory (default is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common" but you may have installed it somewhere else). Then go to "Wurm Unlimited\WurmLauncher\PlayerFiles\configs\default" and create the following 2 files: strafe.txt: // This file replaces the normal STRAFE key functionality to // effectively make it a toggle rather than having to hold // the INSERT key down to strafe. It does it by swapping // the binding of the TURN_LEFT and MOVE_LEFT keys and the // TURN_RIGHT and MOVE_RIGHT keys. (It assumes you start // with the default keybinds. You will need to change // the keys here if you wish to use other keys.) // SETUP: You need to add the following line to the // autorun.txt file (go to your game directory and then // Wurm Unlimited\WurmLauncher\PlayerFiles\configs\default): // // bind Insert "exec nostrafe.txt" // To uninstall remove the above line from autorun.txt // and rebind INSERT with: bind Insert "toggle strafe" // NOTES: // 1. You can start in "strafe" mode using "exec strafe.txt" // NOTES: // 1. You can start in "nostrafe" mode using "exec nostrafe.txt" // autorun.txt instead. // 2. You should make the above change while game is not // running (or you at least need to restart game). // 3. In "strafe" mode you can turn mounts, carts and other // vehicles which use the MOVE_ rather than TURN_ keys. bind Q TURN_LEFT bind E TURN_RIGHT bind A MOVE_LEFT bind D MOVE_RIGHT bind Left TURN_LEFT bind Right TURN_RIGHT bind Insert "exec nostrafe.txt" nostrafe.txt: // This file replaces the normal STRAFE key functionality to // effectively make it a toggle rather than having to hold // the INSERT key down to strafe. It does it by swapping // the binding of the TURN_LEFT and MOVE_LEFT keys and the // TURN_RIGHT and MOVE_RIGHT keys. (It assumes you start // with the default keybinds. You will need to change // the keys here if you wish to use other keys.) // SETUP: You need to add the following line to the // autorun.txt file (go to your game directory and then // Wurm Unlimited\WurmLauncher\PlayerFiles\configs\default): // // bind Insert "exec nostrafe.txt" // To uninstall remove the above line from autorun.txt // and rebind INSERT with: bind Insert "toggle strafe" // NOTES: // 1. You can start in "strafe" mode using "exec strafe.txt" // autorun.txt instead. // 2. You should make the above change while game is not // running (or you at least need to restart game). // 3. In "strafe" mode you can turn mounts, carts and other // vehicles which use the MOVE_ rather than TURN_ keys. bind Q MOVE_LEFT bind E MOVE_RIGHT bind A TURN_LEFT bind D TURN_RIGHT bind Left MOVE_LEFT bind Right MOVE_RIGHT bind Insert "exec strafe.txt" Then edit autorun.txt to add the following: // Added the following to make INSERT act like a toggle for strafing // rather than having to hold it down. bind Insert "exec nostrafe.txt" Pretty simple method. When you press the Insert key now it will rebind the keys to the other mode and change Insert to call to other mode next time it is pressed. Note that if you have configured your movement keys differently then you will need to modify the files as needed. You could also use a different key as the toggle.
