Itai795 Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 Hi everyone I'm playing Ren for 15 years, but from time to time you always find out something new about this game. Today, somehow, I manged to open some kind of a menu or a console while playing Ren. I have no idea how exactly I did it, probably pressed some buttons, but that weird console popped up, and I've never seen it before. It happened for a brief of a second, probably because I pressed another button. Because it stayed on my screen for a short time, I only caught a glimpse of it. It looked kind of like the team status window (by holding J) but didn't cover the entire screen (it was in the middle of the screen and I've seen the game itself outside that window). It showed my character icon (was a hottie) and I think the players' names, maybe it was some kind of chat or private message window. I've asked some people in-game about it, but nobody knew what I was talking about. Any ideas? I'm not referring to team status (holding J), building status (K) or server info (L). Thanks.
Goztow Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 If u were in a tank, maybe you scrolled your mouse button?
shaitan Posted January 22, 2017 Posted January 22, 2017 That's news to me, I did every key on my keyboard, got nothing.

YesNoMayb Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 The button for me is ",". They added this to the game in one of the new updates years ago. I've never used it and I always forget it exists.
Learonys Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 Ohhh, I remember that! I accidentaly stumbled upon that menu a long time ago, I forgot about it the next day though, never used it. It could however be quite useful if you can kick passengers from your vehicle with it... 1

Check your mydocs\renegade\ folders. You should have input01/keys cfg. It's one of those two. Look for veh_kick I think.
mdogg1108 Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 So basically, this screen is only useful when you're trying to kick someone out of an APC. Because otherwise, you could always just do !vkick
StJohn Gumby Posted January 23, 2017 Posted January 23, 2017 I might be going senile, but do I remember correctly that Y sets the passenger in your vehicle to gunner? Gumby

Gumby If not mistaken, I believe it's Q. But this reminds me, if using an APC this screen could be useful in setting a specific player as gunner, although I'm confident nobody really uses the feature anyways.
