how to set hotkey "Z+left-click" in controls

Post by VINT64 »

So I have that Asus RoG with keyboard that deteriorates over time and my "ctrl" doesn't function properly anymore. I need an alternative to "ctrl+left/right click" inventory commands, and I want to configure "Z+left/right click", but I can't set it. After right click, when prompt says "waiting" and I hold Z and do a left-click, the hotkey is saved as simply "left-click".

Is there any solution to do what I need?

The control settings in Factorio do not support mixed key and mouse controls. It only supports modifier-keys (ctrl, shift, alt, and so on) + 1 mouse button OR 1 keyboard key (non modifier).
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Some keyboard key is deteriorated over time. I don't want to switch keyboard to a new one. I don't mind if I will hit other key instead of deteriorated one.
