Recently, I remembered one of the main reasons that I used to be so engrossed in the world of Dying Light 1. I used to spend a lot of time walking through the streets of Harran, whether it was to loot or simply sneak around the hordes of infected. At first, Dying Light 2 lacked the ability to truly let the players slow down and navigate Villedor at a calmer pace. Techland added a toggle walk option for keyboard and mouse, however I couldn't help but notice they didn't include this option for controllers. Now obviously, most controller players can just ease up a little on the analog stick if they want to walk. However, if you're like me and have a fairly old controller, those precious analogs are no longer as precise as they used to be.
TLDR: This mod implements a toggle input on controller which allows players to walk smoothly, without old analog sticks causing funky dead-zone reactions.
HOW TO USE
To toggle walking on/off, simply press the right analog stick (R3).
In case you're wondering, no, this will not clash with survivor sense.
To use survivor sense, simply hold down R3 for a short period. This will not mess with the walk toggle.
HOW TO INSTALL
Find your Dying Light 2 folder and navigate through the following folders: "ph" > "source".
In the source folder, you should see data0 and data1. Drop the data2 file in the same spot and you're good to go.
If you already have a data2 file, rename my mod to data3 or 4...and so on, depending on how many mods you have.
The technical stuff
Essentially how I got these two inputs to co-exist on the same button is all thanks to a couple of input parameters.
"Tap Time" and "Hold Time".
Tap Time: A window of time in which a command will activate provided the button is pressed and let go of within the time frame.
Hold Time: A window of time in which a button needs to be held before a command is activated.
In relation to toggle walk and survivor sense...
THE TAP TIME FOR TOGGLE WALK IS [0.21 SECS] - the default window for all button presses.
THE HOLD TIME FOR SURVIVOR SENSE IS [0.26 SECS]
So, by the time you activate SS, you wont accidentally trigger the walk toggle.
I hope you enjoy!
