Key Binding Patch

by Giant-Salted-Fish

Key Binding Patch changes how the vanilla key binding system resolves conflicts, so several keys can trigger one binding together.

ForgeClient-side onlyAll rights reserved1.12.2 – 1.20.4

What it does

The patch works on the vanilla key binding system and lets a binding use modifier keys together with another key. A single key binding can hold several combination keys at once, and key bindings bound to the same key can be triggered together instead of blocking each other.

Other mod developers can register press and release callbacks on key bindings, and the patch can create shadow copies of key bindings so that one action may be reached through several bindings. Only the client needs it: players install it, and servers do not. The mod is published for Forge across 6 release versions, 1.12.2 – 1.20.4, with 1.3.3.5 for 1.20.1 as the latest file, and it is licensed as All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Public source code and an issue tracker are linked.

Key features

  1. Combination keys

    Modifier keys can be combined with other keys in a single binding, so one binding responds to a chord.

  2. Multiple keys per binding

    One key binding can be assigned several combination keys at once.

  3. Shared key triggers

    Key bindings bound to the same key can fire together rather than conflicting with one another.

  4. Callbacks and shadow copies

    Developers can register press and release callbacks, and create shadow copies of key bindings for extra functionality.

Questions

Does Key Binding Patch need to be installed on the server?

It is published for Forge only, with files for 1.12.2, 1.16.5, 1.18.2, 1.20, 1.20.1 and 1.20.4.

Can Key Binding Patch be used on a version newer than 1.20.4?

The catalog lists no Forge files for versions after 1.20.4, so the mod has no published build for those releases.
