Assign an item/quest to a keyboard's key button.

[HueHue 0]

Hi.

Is there a way to assign an item or a quest to a button on the keyboard?

For example I have an item 50053 and I want to use it by pressing TAB key on my keyboard.

Or I have a quest and I want to open the quest by pressing ~ key on my keyboard.

yes you can do this go to game.py create a function with your key send this to the server check if you have this item id in your inventory and if you have it do what you want and send it back to the client

Ok that's great but could you or someone help me to write the code for this as I have never done something like this before.
All i know is that i need to use this command in game.py

onPressKeyDict[app.DIK_TAB]	= lambda : self?????

So basically what I want to have is when i press Tab key an item 50053 is being used.
Thank you in advance.

you have to know C++ to do this there is no magic button for the pc to know what you think

Although I'm not entirely sure why you would want something like this, I will leave you an example for items.

Just one more thing the "Python Method Only" works only on the 1st inventory page.
How to change it so that it will work on all 4 inventory pages.

for i in xrange(player.INVENTORY_PAGE_SIZE * 4):
	if getItemVNum(i) == itemVNum:
		self.UseItemSlot(i)

I've tried this before with different combinations but it doesn't really want to work.
Anyway thank you
