Title: Can F12 be disabled?
Post by: majic28 on May 02, 2007, 08:03:49 am
i  use ventrillo often and have hot key set to F12,  when playing super melee with a friend i changed it to F11 but find myself hitting F12 constantly by mistake, is there a way to disable F12 from shutting down the game?

Which version of UQM are you using? As far as I can tell from how UQM works for me and the documentation, the emergency exit (F12) was removed from UQM in May 2005.

It seems there's still a hidden option in UQM to abort the game immediately (although it's disabled on all the machines I've tried it on). Your UQM key configuration file (keys.cfg, see the FAQ (http://uqm.stack.nl/wiki/The_Ur-Quan_Masters_Technical_FAQ#Where_are_my_settings_stored.3F) for info on how to find it) should contain a line:

Code:
Abort: key F12

Remove it or change the key to something less intrusive.
