"huh" i think? then i realize: i remapped the space bar to be jump (like many games i've played, so it's just reflex/habit for me). but in the old version (i'm using the same configuration) the space bar was only registered as a "space" in the message window, not as a "jump" in game play. so essentially, in the e2 version whenever messaging, the keyboard was disabled (in regards to game play / tank action), but in e4 the alpha(numeric?) keys are disabled, but not the space bar. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: David Trowbridge (davidtrowbridge) Date: 2003-06-02 04:59 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=66583 this is a feature, not a bug :) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: alan derk (duffman916) Date: 2002-06-23 23:20 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=351517 LOL. The first time i played i made space bar jump, But i thought i was jumping because the program makes you jump when you are messaging so you don't get shot. haha. I like jumping when i am typing something ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: undefined (undefined) Date: 2002-01-14 04:10 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=16258 my apologies on all the duplicates. somewhere between sf.net, the web proxy, and my browser, sf.net's acknowledgement of my posting was getting lost (or not sent at all) so my browser (mozilla) just kept resending my comment. sf.net was responsive with me visiting any other web page at the site, but it just couldn't ever get an acknowledgement of receipt of my post back to me, for whatever reason. wierd. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: undefined (undefined) Date: 2002-01-12 21:13 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=16258 that works fine for when a user uses the default key-bindings of "jump = tab", but for the majority of possible key-bindings for jumping (alphanumeric keys and punctuation), this produces undesirable behavior while messaging (jumping while messaging; though i'm sure it gives other players a good laugh should they notice it ;-). anyways, still something that i would like to see addressed, but i am very grateful for the development of bzflag and am happy sticking with e2 right now, and, if i feel compelled to upgrade in the future, i can always remap jump to some infrequently used puntuation key located near the right-hand home-row (as i play with my left hand on the mouse and my right hand on the right-hand home row keys). thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: undefined (undefined) Date: 2002-01-12 21:11 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=16258 that works fine for when a user uses the default key-bindings of "jump = tab", but for the majority of possible key-bindings for jumping (alphanumeric keys and punctuation), this produces undesirable behavior while messaging (jumping while messaging;

This was definitely intentional. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=103248&aid=502495&group_id=3248 |
