newb question

Post » Tue Nov 24, 2009 11:02 pm

Ok so as I stated before I am a newb when it comes to CS I play with it mostly to make slight position edits in mods I get. Well after reading these forums I decided to start making a house and then I did something that kinda screwed everything up. Problem is I don't know what I did. But for some reason when I hold the left mouse button and move the mouse instead of dragging the objects (my walls in this case) it makes them bigger or smaller. I can't figure out what on earth happened or how to reverse it (or maybe its supposed to happen and I was just doing it wrong all along and it moved somehow...) but the point is I can't do anything right now, any help would be much appreciated!

Normally, holding S while dragging the mouse and holding Left Click will change the scale like this. I don't know how you got it to do it by default.
Maybe your S key is stuck down, or something? Try pressing it a few times while you're in the CS, see if you can reset it, so that Left Click goes back to it's normal function of dragging objects.

As far as I know, there is no way to configure the CS controls manually.

I just opened CS again after a few hours and it works normally again, thanks for your help. Maybe my S key was jammed, or the humidity here messed with my keyboard (sometimes if water gets on it it short-circuits or something and I lose use in like half of my KB)

edit: I got another question, figured I might as well continue this thread: my door into the house wont work. I used ex_common_door_01 and I set it to teleport into my house but when I go in game it just hinges on the center and nothing happens.

I added a new question in an edit above but because editing doesn't bump it I figured I'll point to it *points above* ^^^^^^^ :goodjob:
