what keys are detectable by EUDs? i know that arrow keys, f4, and space can be detected because they move the screen. are there any other keys that can be detected without requiring the screen to move? and are there any other keys that can move the screen?

As I have said before, there are no keys that can be detected using EUD conditions. In addition to movement of screen, you could detect keystrokes that hotkey-trigger the training of units if a building is selected, the unloading of units from a dropship, and a few other things.

I don't know if there are any other screen moving actions, but I should warn that since spacebar and F4 do the same thing, you won't be able to tell which one was pressed.

space bar goes to last transmission not just minimap ping.
like ¨your under attack at x location¨ space bar will go there.

no keys can be detected by eud triggers, thats why all those battle and air combat games are used with a shuttle or dropship and hotkeys. and as dt_battlekruser was saying it wont detect either if f4 or space was pressed, because space is ur start location and i dont know f4 but it wont know what key u pressed, just that the scren moved

True, but if pings start happening then spacebar is virtually impossible to detect, and spacebar defaults to your start location.

Besides F4 is such an out-of-the-way key disgust.gif
