Confusion with Combo Alliasing — Beta Discussion — Armageddon Games Forums Archive

You can make as many combo allliases as you want (well, up to 255, i think). However, there's no way of getting to all of them for use in Combo Allias mode. You can only see the first page of them, the first 40 thumbnails. When you press ctrl + pg down, it scrolls through to an empty page of thumbnails. So its like skipping pages or something so allias 40 and beyond can't be used. Plus, mouse-scrolling is not available in combo allias mode. Not sure if this is all bugs or if i just don't know how to do this.

Also, how do you change where the allias is placed relative to the mouse? I thought i read somewhere when this was first being implemented, that you could change the little 'x' on the thumbnail to change how the allias is placed. Can/how do you do this?

Hit Spacebar to change the Alias's position relative to the mouse. 😛

And kudos on having the patience to fill up that many Aliases. 😛

I'm pretty sure ctlr+arrow keys work as they should. Besides, I think ctrl+pgdown goes to the end of the list (and it is indeed 255).

As for the alias placing, you're looking for the space bar.

Thanks!

Also, you know how when you edit a combo allias, when picking one combo after another, the next combo you pick will start where you placed the last one. (It remembers your last selection) I think this would be very convenient for all secret combos and 'next' combos! Perhaps it could be an option in the 'misc->options' menu.
