Extended Keybinds
For Witcher 3 

This mod is an updated version of Better Keybinds by Mpstark
Please endorse his original mod if you enjoy these changes!
All I did was updating it for 1.31 and adding a compatible version for 2 extra bombs in More Quick Slots

------------------------------------------------
Description:
Adds in additional keybinds, remappable through the default interface.

Extended Keybinds includes the following new keybinds:
  • Instant swap to specific Bomb/Quickslot/Pockets
  • Quick throw specific Bomb slot
  • Cycle between available Bomb/Quickslot/Pockets
  • Instant cast signs (with hold for alternate signs)
  • Automaticly draw the best sword for your current target
  • Lock on to the nearest target
  • Cycle locked targets
  • Discard locked target

Better Keybinds allows you to rebind these keys, not rebindable in the base game:
  • Cancel Aiming
  • Sheathe Swords

Better Keybinds doesn't currently modify how any existing keybinds work.

------------------------------------------------
Installation:
1. Copy the entire "modBetterKeybindsSP" folder into "[Path To The Witcher 3]\mods" folder

2. Backup your original input.xml located in "[Path to The Witcher 3]\bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc"
- DO NOT LEAVE IT IN THIS FOLDER AS AN XML FILE!

3. Patch input.xml:
- Open input.xml.patch.txt in the patches directory in modBetterKeybindsSP
- Open existing input.xml file in "[Path to The Witcher 3]\bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc"
- Copy contents of input.xml.patch.txt into input.xml somewhere between the "<VisibleVars>" tags.
I would recommend either at the top (before "<!-- [BASE_CharacterMovement] -->") or at the bottom (before "</VisibleVars>")
- Save the input.xml

4. Patch input.settings to include the new keybinds
- Open input.settings located in "[My Documents]\The Witcher 3"
- Open input.settings.patch.txt in the patches directory in modBetterKeybindsSP
- Copy the entire contents of input.settings.patch.txt into input.settings AT THE TOP
- Save the file, the game will reorganize this file you launch it next

------------------------------------------------

Compatibility:

Better Keybinds modifies multiple script files (most of which to get around stupid decisions in original code):

`playerInput.ws`
`playerWitcher.ws`
`r4Player.ws`
`pullEffect.ws`
`signEntity.ws`
`signOwner.ws`

If you have other mods installed, please use Script Merger: http://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/484/?
Follow installation instructions and then run Script Merger to merge all scripts.

------------------------------------------------

This mod CAN be merged with Friendly HUD, however you'll have to do this manually.
Script merger will show 3 merging conflicts in the PlayerInput.ws file, however these parts shouldn't even be merged to begin with.
Copy the parts from the 2 original files that correspond with these errors in between:

 //---=== modFriendlyHUD ===---           and//---=== modFriendlyHUD ===---
//modBetterKeybindsSP START    and//modBetterKeybindsSP END

Now replace these 2 pieces of code in the merged file and make sure to place them below eachother instead of mixed together.
