Toggle sprint

[Khyron]

A keyboard shortcut for 'auto-run'. Which is to say, just the same as holding down 'W' only you don't have to hold down the key. Press the key to start running, press it again (Or forward/back) to stop.

I agree it would be handy. In fact, I use AutoHotkey to let Alt-R signal W is down. Then when I press W, the key coming up stops it. It makes cross-country driving more enjoyable and you're not wearing out a finger holding down a key for 20 minutes.

I don´t mind holding down W for longer, but my pinky would love auto sprint. I would rather have an extra key for it though, don´t need it when on foot. T key for example.

I bound my Q key for sprinting. So much easier. The way I bound my keys I barely if ever have to take my hands off of the keyboard when playing.

 

Tab = Inventory (Pinky)

Q = Sprint (Ring)

W = Forward (Middle)

E = Use (Pointy one)

R = Reload (Pointy One)

F = Light (Pointy One)

Spacebar = Jump (Thumb)

V = Toggle crouch (Thumb)

C = Crouch (Thumb)

Can we finally have a toggle sprint option please.

 

We have toggle aim now. I really don´t see why we can´t have toggle sprint aswell. Same as with the aim it shouldn´t be default ofc.

Can´t see any argument that wouldn´t also be true for the toggle aim option, that would speak against a toggle sprint option.

 

It really is a problem on longer drives and flights and with T5 POI´s beeing super rare and big maps you really can´t avoid those long travels.

 

And no, a 3rd party isn´t a viable option.
