CTRL and SHIFT modifiers

[computerquip]

I'm wondering whether this is normal or not but when tested on Linux (but I susect the same thing will happen on Mac/Windows), any key set as the CTRL or SHIFT modifier other than CTRL and SHIFT themself do not work.

For instance, I was wanting to use a button on the side of my mouse for CTRL since CTRL is kinda weird for me to press sometimes. However, changing the CTRL modifier did nothing.

I've just tested the SHIFT modifier by applying different keys to it and everything seems to be working fine for me, although I'm a Windows user so yeah. I have no idea how the CTRL modifier works so I don't know about that. Try this, go to Options > Controls and replace the respective keys under the Primary section. Now make sure you click "Apply & Save" and then click "Ok". If it still doesn't work, you should try checking if the key you want to set is already been used by another modifier. E.g. Setting (Q) as a SHIFT modifier is already a modifier for the hero's first skill and that's why it's not working.

okay, third time I'm making this post since the site keeps going irresponsive.

I've tried this, it doesn't work. In the case I replace the primary keybind, nothing concerning that modifier works.

I had the same issue trying to bind capslock key to ctrl, so I had to change the registry so that the caps lock key was actually right control. This is Win 7 btw, but I feel your pain man.

Also, there have been issues with binding directly to mouse keys in HoN for a while. You may want to try leaving the bind in HoN as ctrl and then changing the mouse button to act as a ctrl press.
