Keyboard Shortcuts +

A mod to change the in-game keyboard shortcuts to ones I find more pleasing.

**THIS MOD WILL NOT JUST WORK - FOLLOW THE STEPS**

Subscribe to the mod
Navigate to the downloaded mod on your pc in: SteamLibrary\steamapps\workshop\content\529340\2880952719
copy the "shortcuts.shortcuts" file from the game\gui folder

paste this file into the correct base V3 folder: FSteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Victoria 3\game\gui


Probably not MP compatible unless you are all using it.


Think it's dumb that you have to go through all these steps? Me too! Go add your (polite) voice to asking PDX to allow us to mod shortcuts normally: https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/please-allow-modding-of-shortcuts-files.1551748/


Shortcut list - includes vanilla shortcuts
close_window = "ESCAPE"
increase_speed = "KP_PLUS"
increase_speed_2 = "+"
decrease_speed = "KP_MINUS"
decrease_speed_2 = "-"
screenshot = "F11"
screenshot_map = "shift+F11"
pause = "SPACE"
location_finder = "F"
center_capital = "HOME"
open_politics = "q"
open_budget = "w"
open_buildings = "e"
open_market = "r"
open_military = "t"
open_diplomatic = "F1"
open_technology = "F2"
open_culture = "F3"
open_population = "F4"
open_journal = "F5"
open_decisions = "F6"
open_outliner = "shift+F1"
tab_1 = "1"
tab_2 = "2"
tab_3 = "3"
tab_4 = "4"
tab_5 = "5"
back = "mb4"
map_list = "m"
production_lens = "a"
political_lens = "s"
diplomatic_lens = "d"
military_lens = "f"
trade_lens = "g"

Side (and slightly bitter) note: it's 2022 and you can't do this in game which is a little shameful. Flexible keyboard shortcuts are a fantastic tool for accessibility and should be respected as such.
