Allow cursor movement when targetting with numpad

#1 Post by kazak »

When targetting (or [l]ooking), pressing 1 - 9 on the numpad or hitting one of the arrow keys switches between critters in range. Great. But you can only move the cursor around one space at a time by pressing [shift] + an arrow key. It'd be great if you could do this with the numpad as well, so that you're not constantly having to go back and forth between arrows and numbers for targetting. Gets a bit annoying when you make heavy use of spells like Chill of the Tomb where you prefer targetting spaces to avoid nuking yourself.

(I'm assuming there's no way to enable this already--I looked around the keybindings and didn't see anything. If there's already some way to do this, someone please clue me in.)

Thanks!

EDIT: Thanks Bricks, that did the trick. Annnnnnnd I'm an idiot -- that's been driving me crazy for a while.

I think this is actually a hardware issue. It might be possible to solve on the programming side, but on my keyboard, it'll begin to work as you described if I toggle numlock.
Sorry about all the parentheses (sometimes I like to clarify things).
