PC Running is hurting my finger

SWEET!!

I've not actually crafted one yet, so can't comment. It's different from running/walking though. Ultimately there has to be a bit of a trade off though. Be thankful they didn't introduce an [A]/[D] repeated keypress in order to simulate pushing the pedals! In fact now I've mentioned that..... hmmm...
(ps: it's not "two words" but I really don't want to start throwing out grammar nazi shade! ;) )

Sorry, I forgot my [humor] [/humor] tags.

Pedaling fast on the bicycle takes almost no stamina but requires you to mash the SHIFT button the whole time.

As I've not tried it (and not seen it on any stream yet) you could have told me that you needed to push WASD in a circular motion to get it moving and I would have believed you! ;)

Mashing the [shift] doesn't sound ideal though, I'll agree on that.

 
I have been asking for auto run key since alpha 12. and everytime people just say " make a macro ". well im sorry but i dont have a macro keyboard. and my little finger is dieing a slow painfull death.

 
How about a a double-tap to run? Battlefield games have been doing that for awhile and it works pretty well. W to walk. W twice quickly to sprint. Sprint is still a bindable modifier, but this way gives you both options.

Nice idea

 
I've always remapped run to my left alt. In every game with running. It's easy access and your thumb is already there resting on space bar anyway. So if you have a left alt try that. It will feel weird at first since you're not used to running with alt. Just an idea.

This! Always left alt for sprint, feels so much more comfortable.

 
I would highly suggest that you revisit running and encumbrance because as much as it might be interesting from a gameplay overview it will force me (and possibly) other plays to be literally unable to play because it hurts too much to.

I'm in the same situation, I was hoping it might have a solution in A17 but it's even worse now because even vehicles have sprint mode.

I used it Hryllingur, and it worked great! Thank you!

At first, I tried assigning SHIFT to run, but it didn't work as a toggle (I couldn't stop running). So I just used F2 & F3 by default. It was especially useful with the bicycle. It's no longer a pain in the hand to ride around.

SCUM do it perfect, you change your stance with the mousewheel

And they added a Autorun key in the 2nd week EA

Toggle and DoubleTap will follow as soon as i am able to script a bit :)

 
I don't mind running holding ♥♥♥♥ it's just annoying after long time, what actually hurts me is my back when I play for too long and let's face it, one does not simply play 7 days to die Alpha 17 for a short time because it takes so much longer to get anywhere now, so yeah. Running in game got so hard that it hurts in real life lol
EDIT: I meant to say "holding shift", sorry for typo. Shift happens... :p

Players are faster than any previous build in A17 and can run further before running out of stamina.

Weren't we going to be able to use a press shift for a toggle option? That would be great. I'm jsut glad I Don't have infinite stamina like I did in 16, either way.

 
I dont know, i just run and walk as i always did. Holding shift has always been there and holding W has never been an issue to me, as both keys are very commonly used controls in other games. Ever played Warframe for 4 hours straight? Do it and tell me what your pinky then feels like hahaha

 
Heyho,
like promised ... I changed the script "a bit" ...

You can now press a hotkey to run/walk and with pressing THE SAME key, you'll stop ;)

Aaaand i added a list of recommended keys to a brandnew readme ;)

Have fun! If there's trouble, just tell me.

Thank you bunches, bunches, and banana bunches!!!!!

Yup, I won't play 7D2D without Hryllingur's script now. It's awesome!

 
I use autorun in other games all the time. It reduces stress on the fingers, and I really wish this game had it.

 
I just remap run to "W" because pinky shift does suck lol. No more stressful to run than walk now, easy peasy.
