Pick which button to use while booting #279

Closed TheTechRobo closed 3 years ago

TheTechRobo commented 3 years ago

So, like, we could choose to have SPACE BAR on the keyboard for booting priiloader instead of reset...Just an idea. i wouldn't use it but some epople might.

DacoTaco commented 3 years ago

and would the button work as a B button throughout priiloader like the esc does now? what improvement would this bring? is escape incorrectly mapped to B ?

TheTechRobo commented 3 years ago

No issue that I know of but some may want fine control over it. :thinking:

Especially since maybe parts of their keyboard are broken.

I don't know, simply an idea.

Peter0x44 commented 3 years ago

if this is something you seriously need, you should simply compile priiloader with the necessary change I guess the only argument for it is that the spacebar is an essential key, and maybe someone would still use a keyboard with a broken esc key, but wouldn't with a broken spacebar Still does not seem remotely worth the effort for the close to zero benefits it would have

i share that opinion tbh. i felt like the escape key is something that has the same meaning then a B button on a controller when reviewing the pull request. i also feel like the user should know what he is doing. if he ends up using a keyboard with a broken escape, its on her/him.

on top of that, a cheap USB keyboard replacement can be bought dirt cheap on ebay i still have a headache from making these work haha

@urmum-69 good point. Wasn't a good idea now that I look at it again. I'll close the PR.
