Fix the mouse wheel weapon switch

[Berzerk2k2]

Weapon switching with the mouse wheel does still not work proper. For example one time you switch from the pistol to the shotgun, the next time it switches right to the dynamite and then another time it switches to the submachine guns.

This random weapon switching just killed a very very good hardcore run in seconds for me because I switched from my super shotgun to the dynamite and instakilled myself throwing it at a Yeti standing next to me. That was 220 hp just gone with one stick of dynamite because using the mouse wheel did not switch to the submachine guns that I wanted equiped in this situation.

It's unacceptable that such a simple thing like scrolling through your weapons does not work the way it should. I hope the next patch fixes this and also does not screw up the custom weapon binds in any way.

Unfortunately version 1.0.3.3 does not fix the issue.

Here is how it currently works for me (GOG version):

Top row
Dagger, Pistol Shotgun, SMG

Bottom Row
Axe, Staff, Super Shotgun, Minigun

If you have the dagger equiped, scrolling to the next weapon should be the axe but since it's a weapon in the bottom row it will be skipped and you would switch directly to the pistol.

If you have the axe equipped scrolling to the next weapon should be the pistol but since it's a weapon in the top row it will be skipped and you would switch directly to the staff.

If scrolling to the next weapon would work correct it should be like this: Dagger, Axe, Pistol, Staff, Shotgun, Super Shotgun, SMG, Minigun, etc. so always top, bottom, top, bottom, top, bottom and not just top, top, top or bottom, bottom, bottom.

Btw. since you get the staff before you get the pistol I would switch the staff to the top row and the pistol to the bottom row just for accuracy.

thanks for the feedback. I'll see what I can do.

On this subject: could it be possible to rebind the scroll wheel, or at least have an option to reverse it? My brain associates "scroll wheel down" with "forward/next", so even after hours of play I'm still really struggling with weapon switching because it goes the opposite way from how I bind it in other games.

This is still most definitely broken. The actual fix you should implement in your code has been posted here.

Please fix this... its getting worse the more weapons i get... I will probably just keybind the few weapons i use.. but this shouldn't be an issue.
