Default Re: Wish-List for Dominions 4

Are you windows? This is pretty easy in linux. Not sure in Mac. I thought there was a keymap program in windows. On my WinXP I use AHK.

There are macro programs which can be used to define your own actions to a hotkey. Some will let you override a keypress's default action. Ive gotten AutoHotKey to override the "e" in Dominions. It basically says "when e is pressed send E". It keeps me from using it to do things like name my pretender or rename units to anything with an "e" in it. Im sure there is a way in AutoHotKey to tell it "when e is pressed then just send e" but I havent bothered to find out. Its just as easy to turn the macro on and off.

Its also great for late-game micromanagement, or for setting automatic go-to for build queues, or for automating build queues.
