DEFBINDS

DEFBINDS is a cumulative, text-based lump that sets the default key binds for the game. The syntax is as follows:

<bind_command> <key> <command>

• bind_command: the bind command to use. They are bind, doublebind, mapbind and unbind with unbind only working if the lump is placed in an IWAD. Specifying no bind command defaults to bind.
• key: the key to bind.
• command: the command to bind the key to.

The key binds from this lump are only set if their corresponding sections are absent from the configuration file, with the sections being: [<game>.Bindings], [<game>.DoubleBindings] and [<game>.AutomapBindings]. The engine will create and populate these sections with the defaults upon being run for the first time with each game. If placed in an IWAD, default key binds can be overwritten.

Examples

This binds tab to togglemap; double-binds r to +reload; map-binds c to am_clearmarks and removes the default binding for crouching.

bind tab togglemap
doublebind r +reload
mapbind c am_clearmarks
unbind x

For commands that take arguments, quotation marks are required around the command and passed arguments:

bind t "summon plasmarifle"
