Keymap Presets
by yuuki1293
Keymap Presets saves, loads and deletes sets of key bindings, so players who switch controls often can keep several layouts ready.
What it does
The mod stores named key binding presets. A player saves the current bindings under a name, loads a saved preset later, deletes one, or clears them all. Presets can be handled from a preset selection screen, a widget on the key binding screen, or the keymap commands. Pressing the left ALT key opens the selection menu, and ALT combined with a number key, such as ALT+1, loads the preset assigned to that slot without opening it. The default preset slot is loaded by ALT+1.
Players who change key binding layouts frequently for different games, modpacks or tasks use the mod to avoid rebinding each key by hand. It requires Architectury API and Cloth Config API alongside the Fabric or Forge loader. Keymap Presets runs on the client only, so servers do not need it. Files are published for 1.18.2 on Fabric and Forge, with 1.2.1 as the latest version, and the project is open source under the MIT License.
