The Most Important Mod Ever: Changing the 'Take All' Button

[Apocolypse623]

Look, if you're like me, you like to be organized. You don't throw all your crap into one box in the Lucky 38. You want your ammo here, and your weapons there, etc. etc.

 

But if there is one thing that is the BANE of my existence, it is the fact that the 'OK' and 'Take All' share the same button. "A".

 

EVERYONE has had this problem: You are unloading a bunch of ammo types into a box. Or maybe scraps. Each time you do it, it requires you to click, determine the quantity and then hit 'A' to confirm. When doing a LARGE amount of things, this can be repetitive. And maybe you're not paying attention, and you double hit A. Or perhaps you only had five bullets, and no dialogue is required, but 'Take All' shares the same command. In some form or another, everyone has hit the 'A' button and removed everything from the box and thus, created another two to three minutes of work. Let alone repeated chances for this to occur again.

 

I propose that either the 'Confirm' for quantity selection or, as I prefer it, the 'Take All' button have different letters. Perhaps make 'Take All' the letter "T". Or "U" Something far enough away that it's not going to get mashed accidentally, but close enough that it's not a hassle to fix.

 

If this is possible [and I sure as hell hope it is] please make this mod. You will get so many endorsements it will make your head spin.

 

I *KNOW* I can't be the only one who dies a little inside every time this happens.

 

Thanks. :]

 

I feel the same way especially in my fridge since it took me 10 minutes to put all my food items back TWICE because of this.

You can edit Darn's xml files or extract the game's original versions (with FOMM or NVMM) and edit them with notepad ++ or something similar. They're in the -misc.bsa.

Excellent, thank you! Interesting to see I wasn't the only one so frustrated by this that I could eat my own keyboard even though I only did it twice, and more interesting to see a solution so readily available. :)
