    You might have bound something to it not taking notice to it.

    Like the others have said. If you use enter for any key whatsoever for controls you are no longer able to use chat.
    I’ve had this problem for well over a year as I use the enter key to jump.

    Sadly arrow users are left with no options because of the way double binds work, though one could argue that the enter key being a double action key bind is wack!

    @TheTots

    Is there any way to configure a way to allow the enter key to be an action bound key and be able to execute a chat message in game. Surely there has got to be something that can be done that is simple.

    I will have to check.

    The game wasn't made exactly to my specifications, so I feel it's broken.

    Remember when you used to be able to bind 2 things to 1 key lol. Then it was removed. I used to use it for fire and spot E.

    I have the same problem since the last update

    I am sure that was taken out to bind like that venom. Unless your using a hotkey outside from the game like how I use one for my WoW rotations? Guys I would check your binding on you AAInput. It should say <<<<Bindings=(Name="SpaceBar",Command="GBA_Jump")>>>>. This is located here C:\Users\owner\Documents\My Games\America's Army Proving Grounds\AAGame\Config

    It is, I made my mouse press and release 3 keys at the same time. With in the game it's not possible anymore, why they removed it I've no idea since you can do it anyway.

    Why games incorporate AC I've no idea since you can cheat anyway. Just to put this into perspective.

    Not being able to entirely restrict something isn't a valid reason to not limit something as good as you can if you feel like it needs to be limited.

    I'm not sure about the timeline and I won't make the effort to check but since the game used to have that stupid 3d spotting and no cooldown for the spotting mechanic it seems rather fair to limit the keybinds abusing those. Who knows which change was made first but as of now I'd argue the keybind restriction indeed is not needed (anymore) but that's because of those 2 changes mentioned not because "you can do it anyway".

    Has the "ENTER" key changed in today's update? Can anyone test and give feedback on this please?

    I can check tonight but can I ask a silly question.
    Why would it change now?
    It wasn’t in the release notes and last I checked Tots said “he would have to check”, so with nothing in the release notes and no response from Tots in this thread why would anything change.

    Well....uh....I can't tell you. :)

    It's not a silly question though. You're right, it's not in the notes.

    However, I just bound the "ENTER" key to my nightvision just for a test. So it seems to work but I always like others to verify. :+1:

    The issue has never been whether or not you can bind the enter. The issue is that once you bind the enter key to any type of action it will no longer allow you to chat in game via text.

    The enter key will no longer execute what you typed in chat.

    Oh. Sorry! Now I need to check a few things. Thanks, bud. I TOTALLY misread the public side of this.... :(

    just went in game to test. You still cannot execute a text message in chat
  • Keebler750Keebler750 Posts: 3,621Player
    I seem to remember a bind fix that was done a long time ago that addressed the "text box ENTER key priority" thing.

    So, it doesn't work now, but re-binding the Send Text thingy to another key DOES work, so if you use Enter for something, you use another key to send the chat. HOWEVER, if it's a normal alphanumeric key, it will append that with the text chat, before sending.

    I tested "Right-ALT" to send the text and it worked.

    Soon.

    Just as a curious lurker, what else do you want to bind Enter to? Unless you still play FPS's with the arrow keys
