Tip - Emergency Stop

Recommended Posts

Hey, all.  You all probably already do this, but I thought I would post it here for any new folks...

 

A fantastic hotkey to have is "stop", which I have bound to the "o" key.  (That's the letter "o", not the number zero.)

 

There have been so many times when I started the wrong action on something and want to abort.  But you only have a few seconds to do that, and trying to find the right item in your inventory and then right clicking to get the menu and then finding stop might take more time than you have to stop the action.  That's when pressing one key really comes in handy... "o" which is really easy to remember because it's the closest key to a stop sign.

Yeah, I use escape key until the settings menu pops up.

esc is bound to stop_mainmenu (combined keybind of stop if action ongoing else open menu) and it does not stop all actions like using training doll but stop key bind works.

I've done some dumb things on accident since I couldn't press ESC multiple times fast enough.  Having ESC key do a "stop all" would be nice.
