Shockwave Ctrl+Click Pickup & Shift+Click Rotate

[Paswrd]

Find Room Interface Class in hh_room and add the following code to the bottom of eventProcActiveObj.

if (the controlDown and tIsController) then

    if pSelectedType = "active" then
      ttype = "stuff"
    else if pSelectedType = "item" then
      ttype = "item"
    end if

    me.hideInterface(#hide)
    return me.getComponent().getRoomConnection().send("ADDSTRIPITEM", "new" && ttype && pSelectedObj)


  end if

  if (the shiftDown and tIsController) then
    me.getComponent().getActiveObject(pSelectedObj).rotate()
  end if

You will need to comment out this line:

if the shiftDown then
    --return me.outputObjectInfo(tSprID, "active", the rollover)
  end if

Comment out the return statement otherwise, it hits this part of the code first, causing it to capture the shift event. You can comment it out or simply remove that piece.

This will allow you to use CTRL+Click to pickup items and Shift+Click to rotate furniture.

Does this fix work on v31? My friends are trying but without success.

It's not a fix, it's an enhancement.
