Arma 3 - Custom Controls / Keybinds

Recommended Posts

Hey there,

Can anyone tell me if it is possible to bind a key to a special action such as looting an inventory or entering a car? In some situations for example when you are under fire its way to slow to use the scroll menu to enter a car. I often died when beeing in such a situation :/.

Another question I have is, when you look into your controls options you can find a menu called custom actions or so. With custom action 1 to 20. Can anyone tell me how to use that correctly and what it is for?

Thanks for your help :)

When you run up to a vehicle you will get an icon to enter the vehicle.All you need to do is press use default key,usually the middle mouse button,and you will enter vehicle.As for looting inventory I have assigned T as inventory key and when I need to loot a body I walk up to it and press T.Custom controls I have no idea what they are for.

I think custom controls are for auto-selecting number 1, number 2 and so on in the action menu but since they jump around all the time they're pretty useless and no keyboard in the world has enough keys to use them well.

I have to say I just use the standard control settings and there's nothing wrong with them (:

I always thought it was a bit much to scroll through the weapons selection (by pressing F repeatedly) to use the M203 grenade launcher. There is no need to scroll from single shot to automatic to fire the grenade launcher, then scroll through your hand grenades to get back to your primary weapon. If there is a way to go straight to grenade launcher and back to primary weapon I'd appreciate it.

I know this is off topic but could not start my own thread but does anyone know how to make a custom key commands. I have been using tanks/vehicles recently and i found a key command for swapping from driver to commander/gunner but there is no key command to go from gunner to driver.I found this page ( https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Arma_3_Actions#MoveToDriver) and it works in editor but i need it to work in multiplayer. any suggestions? also this would be nice for other kinds of stuff like detonating bombs.
