Hopefully it is as simple as adding

Code: Select all

unbind shift+enter
to your uikeys.txt file in your spring folder.

Yes and i hate it with my whole soul. Shift is the button you hold in 90% of the game so having to try 4-5 times before you finaly can type something to your ally is very very annoying in a stressy situation.

Also, it seems to be hardcoded, LordMatt. Even if you unbindall and then "unbind enter chat" and bind chat to something like "k", it will still be the same. Oh sure "K" will work as the old chat thing but with the reflex set to enter it wont matter much really.

Avoid wearing out your shift key, try setting InvQueueKey=1
in your registry (or bind 'invqueuekey' to a keyset, and change
it in-game). ;-)

P.S. And do read the instructions in the default uikeys.txt before
trying that which LordMatt has suggested.
