Hotkeys

Ask has two keys because some keyboards hide F6 behind Fn. Both always work, even when Backseat has taken over the mouse and keyboard — you can’t lock yourself out.

Changing them

Create a text file called overlay.key.txt in the Backseat install folder (%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\backseat\resources\build), one binding per line:

ask = F6
ask = PAGEDOWN
toggle = F8

It’s picked up within a second — no restart. The first line for an action replaces the default; more lines for the same action add keys, up to four.

Modifiers with +, like toggle = CTRL + SHIFT + O.

Key names: A–Z, 0–9, F1–F12, INSERT, DELETE, HOME, END, PAGEUP, PAGEDOWN, TAB, SPACE, ENTER, BACKSPACE, ESC, CAPSLOCK, UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, GRAVE, BACKSLASH, SEMICOLON, SLASH, COMMA, PERIOD. Not case-sensitive.

Not sure what a key is called? Open the debug panel with F8 — it shows the name of the last key you pressed.
