Keybinds

Ashita allows you to bind keys (and key combinations) to execute commands with ease. This allows you to really customize your experience and have keys do what you truely want rather than be restricted to FFXI’s limited macro system.

When you bind a key, it will override any action the game would normally do and instead, execute what you bind it to. The game is blocked from seeing the original key press preventing the original purpose of the key from working.

Modifiers

Along with binding a single key, you can combine modifiers to create key combinations. (Think of things like ALT+TAB.)

Here is a list of valid modifiers:

  • ! - Represents the ALT key must be pressed with the keybind.
  • ^ - Represents the CTRL key must be pressed with the keybind.
  • @ - Represents the Windows key must be pressed with the keybind.
  • # - Represents the Apps key must be pressed with the keybind.
  • + - Represents the Shift key must be pressed with the keybind.

moogle Please Note: Not all keyboards are created equal!

Not every keyboard can handle pressing multiple keys at once. This is known ‘key rollover’. Higher end and newer keyboards will have ‘N’-Key Rollover which means every key on the keyboard is handled separately allowing you to press as many keys as you want. But, this is not the case for all keyboards! Some only scan high-used keys separately such as the ALT/CTRL keys, the WASD keys for gaming, and some others.

If you find a key combination not working, be sure that it is not due to your keyboards limits first before reporting a bug!
