User:Digger

Hi, I'm Digger, usually I go by a nick of Meat_Grinder, however in case of digging a fortress I had to assume this one. Usually I'm adding some minor stuff and just being nitpicky, feel free to remind me of that when you think I go overboard. These are my first wiki-contributions after all :)

BEHOLD THE MOUSE SCRIPT 1.1

I dedicate this script to ignir, who, unable to use mouse in DF, left this awesome game long ago.

[UPDATE] Added some minor tweaks/comments/explanations, simplified some hotkeys, fixed 1(omg) typo. The script now starts suspended, you have to "Alt + s" to enable it. LCtrl + z/x will navigate you horizontally, and LCtrl + mouse wheel vertically in a no-cursor mode.

Note:The script has been created for maximum comfort of a "left hand on a keyboard & right hand on a mouse" position. If you are left handed, you probably might want to switch any left hotkey combo to a right one, Find>Replace>LCtrl/LShift/LWin/LAlt with RCtrl/RShift/RWin/RAlt, also you might want to change F1/tilda/x/z/a keys to something else that's closer to the right side.

;This is a script that enables basic mouse controls in DF. The precision of the scipt is ~1 tile for me.
;Feel free to modify it, however remember that DF cannot tell where your mouse is, and AutoHotKey cannot tell where the DF's cursor is, so it is your job to synchronize them :)
;Alright, I did everything to KILL that Numpad control setup >:) Laptop users could probably easily play with this one.
;The only problem with this control is that it takes 2 mouseclicks to navigate, so it will probably kill your mouse(instead of your keyboard, what DF inevitably does) in the long run.

;Recommendations: 12x12 tileset, Windowed mode, wide/large screen, 3-button wheeled mouse, brains.
;Once you get a hand of it, you will realize that you can navigate to the places you can't even see on the screen.

Suspend			;This one suspends the script in the beginning.
