Hotkeynet help with PiP script

[Khatovar]

Ok, first thing is you don't have a hole punched for your PiP, you've just forced your slave windows on top, which is not how you want to do things. It puts your master window as a background window, which means it's going to get crappy performance.

The "Empty Hotkeys" messages are because you already defined F1 as a hotkey for your PiP. Removing F1 from the Hotkey definition will clear all of the errors. I'd also suggest using a Keylist instead of defining all those keys separately with a shift modifier.

Don't define Space as a hotkey. It should be defined as a movement key, otherwise the key won't be sustained, which means it won't work for moving up in the air while flying or while swimming.

On the same note, you have A-Z except WASD being sent. Q, E and X should also be excluded with at least X moved to the Movement keys. Q and E are strafe left and right, you will still want that ability on your master {I also use it on my slaves, so I define them as movement keys as well}. X is down, which you may need for swimming and flying on occasion.

I would also add Esc as a key so you can access the game menu, cancel casting, clear targets, clear windows and whatever else you can use Esc for in the game.


I'd also add a stop broadcasting toggle in there, just to make things easier. I use Pause.
