More in the planning stage at the moment.
When we enter vehicles, by default follow and focus breaks.
Most IS Boxer users take advantage of the auto FTL for assist/follow.
But only /Follow Focus seems reliable...
I'm interested in either a two step Keymap, or two individual Keymaps.
Step 1, or Keymap 1 will:
a) /Focus <Current Toon's Name>. The format has to be /Focus Name.
b) /Follow Focus (all windows, without current).
c) Enable alternate DPS Keys.
d) Disable the FTL DPS Keys.
e) Announce (Pop Up Text), "Vehicle Mode".
Step 2, or Keymap 2 will:
a) Clear Focus
b) Enable the FTL DPS Keys.
c) Disable the alternate DPS Keys.
d) Announce (Pop Up Text), "Normal Mode".
The advantage of two keymaps, is the option to re-click the first Keymap on a leader change.
This then has the other toons follow the new leader, as well as set the new leader to their Focus.
A single keymap with two steps, has only one hotkey to learn.
If we can use the new timing feature, to not advance to step 2 unless the hotkey is pressed in fairly quick succession, then we can press the keymap to change leaders, without ending vehicle mode.
Rather then several Keymaps within General, I'd think a new Keymap category would be the way to go.
That way, we can enable/disable the entire Keymap for FTL DPS Keys and the entire Alternate DPS Keys with two actions.
The alternate DPS Keys will use this syntax:
/assist Focus
/click [target=vehicle,exists] VehicleMenuBarActionButton1
Naturally the hotkey for this Keymap will be 1.
We need to as many Keymaps within the Alternate Keymaps group, as there are possible buttons on vehicles.
Each will basically be the same, except for the action button.
In practice:
a) we get into our vehicles.
b) hit our vehicle hotkey.
c) everyone focuses and follows the active character.
d) any vehicle button pressed, has all the others press the same and auto assist, as we're used to.
Suggestions or comments?
