Hi Mike, it also kind of depends a bit on what particular kind of script you want to run.

There are 2 basic types of scripts - plug-in commands, and "inline scripts".

A plug-in has files that have to be copied into the \commands sub-folder. That then makes a new command available and you can set up a shortcut key with that command name as the thing to execute.

For an inline script generally those are smaller snippets of script code for doing stuff like hiding or selecting things, basically things that trigger instantly and don't have any UI controls. Those you paste directly into the command part of the shortcut key editor.

You don't need to edit moi.ini directly for shortcut keys, at one point very early on in MoI that's how you had to set up shortcut keys but you can just go to Options > Shortcut keys for it now.

There are a lot of Keys that can be used for shortcuts.
Some of them:
0 or 1 or2 or ... 9
A or B or C or ... Z
Most of F1, ... F12
Alt+___ ,(one of the above)
Ctrl+___
Shift+___
Ctrl+Alt+___
Ctrl+Shift+___
DownArrow,UpArrow...PageDown...,Delete

I have not tried every combination...

Keys not allowed: ??????

Hi Brian,

> Keys not allowed: ??????

Just Tab and Escape I guess, those already do different things.

Although you can put in number keys like 1, 2, 3, 4, etc... as shortcut keys if you do that it will interfere with typing that same number to do the quick auto focus behavior for filling in numeric input fields.

Gents,
Just a note to say thank you - lots of very useful info here for a MoI newby like myself.
