List of Possible Keybinds


Possible Keybindings (not exhaustive!):

Keyboard Keybinds:
Note: All single keys must be CAPITALIZED.

Single Keys
e.g. Z, T, G, B, etc.

Key Modifiers + Single Keys
e.g. Shift-1, Shift-2, Alt-1, Ctrl-1, etc.

Multiple Key Modifiers + Single Keys
Order of modifiers is important - use them in this order: Shift, Ctrl, Alt.
e.g. Shift-Ctrl-1, Shift-Alt-B, Ctrl-Alt-T, Shift-Ctrl-Alt-H

Numpad
Note the capitalization of NumPad.
e.g. NumPad0, NumPad1 to NumPad9, NumPad*, NumPad+, NumPad-, etc.

Special Keys:
e.g. R Ctrl (with a space), R Alt, PgUp, PgDn, Home, End, ScrlLock, NumLock, Backspace, Insert, Delete, Caps Lock

Mouse Keybinds:
Mouse1
Mouse2
Mouse3
Mouse4/5/6/7/8
MouseWheelUp
MouseWheelDown

Controller Keybinds:
Xenon_A / Xenon_B / Xenon_X / Xenon_Y
Xenon_Select / Xenon_Start
Xenon_LS / Xenon_L1 / Xenon_L2 / Xenon_L3
Xenon_RS / Xenon_R1 / Xenon_R2 / Xenon_R3
DPad_Up / DPad_Down / DPad_Left / DPad_Right

To use hotkeys on Xbox 360 controllers without overriding a default action, you can map the Xbox Guide button to the Shift key with JoyToKey, and prefix your controller keybinds with Shift-<keybind> (e.g. Shift-DPad_Up). You can then access hotkeys by pressing the Xbox Guide button + your assigned button.

    Can you keybind the arrows? If so, what would I write for those? Would be nice to use the up and down arrow for something that increases/decreases.

    Ok so this may be a stupid question but can you use hotkey keybinds to do normal actions assinged to keys in the key bindings menu?

    To be more precise: By default the mousewheel controls the camera zooming in and out, but I had to change that to Numpad+ and Numpad- keys. This is due to the mouse wheel now controlling my character's speed. This is done in the StarfieldHotkeys.ini. Now I would like to have Ctrl-MouseWheelUp and Ctrl-MouseWheelDown control the camera as before but I do not know what to write after the = sign

    This did not work sadly:
    Ctrl-MouseWheelUp=NumPad-
    Ctrl-MouseWheelDown=NumPad+

    it seems like combined key doesn't work on my Xbox controler.however, it works when I combine one keyboard Key (ex: Shift-Xenon_B). I tried to bind the Xbox button to Shift and it works when I type something in the bloc-note but not in game :/ any idea ? I've spent hours trying to figure it out TT

    thanks if anyone can help me with this.

    edit:

    [Macros]

    [Hotkeys]
    NumPad1=if "14".getEquipped 001D8426; "14".unequipItem 001D8426; else; "14".equipItem 001D8426; endif; if "14".getEquipped 0010051F; "14".unequipItem 0010051F; else; "14".equipItem 0010051F; endif; if player.getav A73F8 != 0; player.setav A73F8 0; else; player.setav A73F8 1; endif ;

    Controller user. I use JoytoKey because it's free. I use all the mods. Couldn't get anything to work without also activating vanilla button actions. Also horizontal boost. I don't really use grenades in games so I solved boost by settling on mapping RB to alt jump and W. Seemed to work. Also vertical boost on Y and horizontal boost on RB just felt right. 
    But I still wanted better/faster/instant access to powers. And a way to bypass powers. Usually I can disable vanilla button functions through I think the controlmap. It's been awhile. Can't figure out how to read. Has weird black highlighted text that I have no idea what to do with. Tried some replace all expression trick that didn't work for me. So I haven't refigured out how to tinker with the controlmap yet. 
    So to make a long story a tad longer, my current fix has been disabling the gamepad in the ini. Then used JoytoKey (free version) to map all controller buttons to what I want on keyboard. 
    So now I have all vanilla actions. Made only one dpad arrow open favorites menu. Took scanner off LB. Turned LB into a shift modifier. Now when I hold LB and press a button, it instantly casts the power I mapped. So I can have anywhere from 4 to 12 powers always ready, no menus or switching. Switched melee to B and combat slide/Crouch to RS. B as melee with LB + B= Gravity wave is nice. 
    Horizontal boost works perfectly. I also managed to create a weapon swap button. So I swap between my main gun of choice and pistol/sidearm without menus. Like COD. Debating making a quick swap to melee weapon but they seem to kinda suck. To keep the aesthetic of melee weapons without having to deal with bethesda's turrible melee, I'm thinking about making a default melee weapon slot and have all melee attacks (rifle butt, pistol whip) use the melee weapon instead. 
    Anyway, to wrap things up, total game changer for controller experience. Im trying to compare it to another game for reference but I'm just now realizing that I so heavily mod every game I get, I've no clue how games play unmodded.

      You can't use L Shift. It's "hardcoded" by the game itself
      You can only use it as an addon  ( like Shift-T = . . . )

      when I use Shift to hotkey equipping throwables it crashes my game what am I doing wrong? the macro is setup like so:
      Spoiler:  
      Show
      [Macro]
      echo=CGF "Debug.Notification"
      equip=Player.EquipItem
      check=Player.GetItemCount 
      ; [ Throwables ]
      frag=if check 000115EF == 0 ; echo "Restock Frag Grenade!" ; else equip 000115EF ; endif ;
      impa=if check 0026D89F == 0 ; echo "Restock Impact Grenade!" ; else equip 0026D89F ; endif ;
      shra=if check 0026D89D == 0 ; echo "Restock Shrapnel Grenade!" ; else equip 0026D89D ; endif ;
      ince=if check 0026F180 == 0 ; echo "Restock Incendiary Grenade!" ; else equip 0026F180 ; endif ;
      part=if check 0026D89E == 0 ; echo "Restock Particle Grenade!" ; else equip 26D89E ; endif ;
      cryo=if check 00389F34 == 0 ; echo "Restock Cryo Mine!" ; else equip 389F34 ; endif ;
      infe=if check 00389F33 == 0 ; echo "Restock Inferno Mine!" ; else equip 389F33 ; endif ;
      frgm=if check 0004A41A == 0 ; echo "Restock Fragmentation Mine!" ; else equip 4A41A ; endif ;
      stun=if check 003C23E3 == 0 ; echo "Restock Stun Mine!" ; else equip 3C23E3 ; endif ;
      tsla=if check 00389F37 == 0 ; echo "Restock Tesla Pylon!" ; else equip 389F37 ; endif ;
      toxc=if check 003C23E4 == 0 ; echo "Restock Toxic Gas Mine!" ; else equip 3C23E4 ; endif ;
      [Hotkeys]
       ; Equip Frag Grenade
      Shift-1=frag
       ; Equip Impact Grenade
      Shift-2=impa
       ; Equip Shrapnel Grenade
      Shift-3=shra
       ; Equip Incendiary Grenade
      Shift-4=ince
       ; Equip Particle Grenade
      Shift-5=part
       ; Equip Cryo Mine
      Shift-6=cryo
       ; Equip Inferno Mine
      Shift-7=infe
       ; Equip Fragmentation Mine
      Shift-8=frgm
      ;Equip Stun Mine
      Shift-9=stun
       ; Equip Tesla Pylon
      Shift-0=tsla
       ; Equip Toxic Gas Mine

      *UPDATE* I Was able to fix the issue. It was caused by the [Hotkeys] referring to the [Macro] section for whole command strings. Now I've moved the strings out of macro and set it up to directly input the command from [Hotkeys] section now my crashing issues are resolved. Also improved the text prompts to inform player if same throwable is already equipped and if player needs to restock desired throwables. I got it structured like this:  
      Spoiler:

      [Macros]
      pge="14".GetEquipped
      echo=CGF "Debug.Notification"
      equip="14".EquipItem

       ; [ Shift ]
       ; [ Throwables ]
       ; Equip Frag Grenade
      Shift-1=if pge 000115EF == 1 ; echo "Frag Grenade Already Equipped!" ; elseif check 000115EF < 1 ; echo "Restock Frag Grenade!" ; else ; equip 000115EF ; endif ;

    Hello I use an Xbox one controller on my PC and Xenon_"Button" does not work as hotkeys, I can only set DPad_Up / DPad_Down / DPad_Left / DPad_Right.

    Do you have the controler keybind for Xbox One please ?

    Thx

      DPad_Up is not working for me, could you provide your custom ini so that I can compare what is wrong on my side ?

    Can you bind controller buttons together like keyboard like
    (Ctrl-X) to (Xenon_R1-Xenon_A) for example?
