Possible Bug - Keybinds Save


HawaiiMike

Recommended Posts

I'm new to the game and didn't see any reporting so I figured I'd put the issue in here.  I've notice that after setting up keybinds for a hero character and then choosing "Save Options to File" that it doesn't work using "Load Options from File" on a new character.  It shows a write message when loading or savings but doesn't seem to actually work.  Not a major issue but just thought I'd list it.

 

Thanks,

In the meantime, if you want to transfer keybinds between characters you can use:

/bindsavefile my_keys.txt (you can call the file whatever you want)

and

/bindloadfile my_keys.txt

I figured this one out!

choosing "Save Options to File" that it doesn't work using "Load Options from File" on a new character.

 

So that's the wrong command. The "options" are things like profanity filter on or off (but apparently not windowscale 120% grrrrr). The keybinds are a separate save/load. When you're on the keybinds window the options save/load dialog is at the very bottom, but at the TOP there's another save/load button area and that's for your keybinds.

That was so obvious but I missed it completely.  My eyes stuck to the bottom of the dialog.  Thanks for the help.

Happy to help! It took me making 8 characters before I realized what I was doing wrong too!

 

I love this game but holy shit I have serious complaints about some of the UI elements it does in a nonstandard way now that I'm looking at it with fresh eyes. This is absolutely not our fault the commands are essentially buried above our eyeline.

Yeah, there's like 4-6 "Save File" buttons in the options menu. It took me a few alts to realize the game was also auto-loading them onto a new alt once I'd successfully saved them at one point as well.

Yeah and the windows options were in a separate file too (which I thankfully found).

That (everything above) said, I still think the save/load isn't working 100% as I find myself having to manually retype binds (until I make my own files to import) across characters.

Camera controls are not saving correctly using the UI save/load options.  Easy to test, just edit the keys, hit save a bunch, then make a new character and your keys will not be loading 100%.

 

Perhaps you'll indulge me, and provide some additional detail?

Which specific options/binds are you editing/doing, and how are you saving/loading them?
