Remap Open-Door Key

Steele1925 · April 23, 2023

Is there any way to remap the "Open-Door" key? I have another plugin (Stop the Ped) and every time I try to get a suspect out of the vehicle, it forces me to sprint at the door and open it for no reason. I checked the "Keys" file but couldn't find anything for simple interactions such as this. Any help would be appreciated.

Default is 'F' in native GTAV as you know.
I have not 'remapped' that as in 'F' has been replaced by ...
But i have added another key as secondary key in NATIVE- GTAV Basegame, (because i always uses that key (Page-UP) in all pc-games for getting in/out of vehicles)
With that setup i can use either 'F' or Page-UP for getting in out.
The setup 'costs' a key, because there now are 2 keys used for one feature, but i accept that.
( I have even added a programmed feature on vehicle-In/Out so the avatar always has a pistol in his hand, when he leaves a vehicle, but that is plugin based.
Will be in my plugin when i have ironed the crinkles out... -See signature (for a rather old demo)

Not "F" as in GTA V. But "E" or "DPadRight" as in LSPDFR. When you press E near a vehicle, your character sprints toward the door to open it. That's my issue. I'm just trying to grab a ped, or have them step out and my character just keeps opening doors.

What plugins have you added to your installation?
I think that 'E' thing is from a plugin (STP?)
You incidently get the same 'sprint-for your car-door' if you hold down default-F, but your character must be ~<10 from the car.
Grapping in default LSPD is a bit tricky.
* You must be behind the surrendering Ped
* You cant be more than one step from the surrendering Ped
That position is fiddely to achieve. Ofhen you 'bump' into the Ped, and they reacts with an annoying posture change, so you have to start positioning yourself again -That can be tedious..
IF you are in the correct position, and then tab TAB!! on 'E', then you MUST wait for a 'ding' sound, then your character will 'slide' in (no animation) and grab the surrendering Ped.
But dont move imediately!
Wait like a secd or so. If you move to early your character's arm is going into a 'break-off' error, and you have to re-release the Ped, and re-grab with all the tediousness from above
First when the Ped has its idle-animatyion canceled, it will be able to move with your movements, and you can 'drag' it with you -Even run!
When at position where you want to let go of the Ped tab TAB!! on 'E',
If you hold E you will remove the handcuffs and full-release the Ped.
-Yes DEFAULT Ped-handling IS tricky, and is also why that STP plugin is so popular, but you can definitely do without -in the arrest-sequence!
sadly there is no option for getting your arrested Ped into your car. You do need to call a transport unit.

"sadly there is no option for getting your arrested Ped into your car. You do need to call a transport unit."

Umm... What? Both standard LSPDFR and STP support putting arrested peds into your car. Anywho that's still not the issue I'm having.

Default LSPDFR, not including any plugins, has E or DPadRight set to open your rear doors. I'm trying to see if I can rebind this key because I have another plugin that ALSO does this, which leads to the annoying "sprinting toward door for no reason" action.
