[Mac] Use command instead of Control for key bindings

[vlczero]

As stated in the title i would like to be able to use the command (⌘) key on my keyboard because the placement of the control key is not really that great on mac keyboards.

No it does not see that i am pressing the command key.

I would like to rebind these:

Code: Select all

clear-filter=CONTROL + mouse-button-3
fast-entity-split=CONTROL + mouse-button-2
inventory-split=CONTROL + mouse-button-2

fast-entity-transfer=CONTROL + mouse-button-1
inventory-transfer=CONTROL + mouse-button-1

To further explain the issue:

In the key reassign menu i cannot combine the command key + left mouse button ( Inventory transfer ), but the key registers fine when no mouse option is needed ( Next weapon for example ) It then displays KEY106.

Just to get this out of the way, one can't assume that Control+LMB can be entered on a Mac, since IIRC that gets mapped to RMB by the OS.

Since Command is being identified as KEY106, I don't think the game knows that much about it, and it is probably treating it as an action (non-modifier) key.
22404 dictates that commands which relate to doing something with a cursor-specified inventory slot need a mouse button as the keybinding's action key. If Command is being treated as an action key, it can not be used at all in such a keybinding.
Making Command act as a modifier key might have additional issues come up, however. 20149 states that a keystroke that involves the Command key will not issue any keyup events.
