Stealth Hotkey Trick No Longer Works?

dac0152

I'm trying to implement a PnP character of mind that was a sneaky bard, so I figured I'd just use the ol' hotkey trick to give him some stealth.

Until I found this no longer works. I'm assuming the in-game hotkeys point to the task bar now. Does anyone know a workaround for this?

Figured it out - I'll leave this up in case anyone else has this issue.

The solution is to create a hotkey script with the text (I used NearInfinity):

IF
HotKey(X)
THEN
RESPONSE #100
Hide()
END

Then assign it to your character. Hit whatever X key you assigned, and the character will attempt to hide.

I wonder, does this mean the script trick doesn't work either? I mean using the thief script making your char go invisible all the time even if you don't have the button. Had a bard who did that just for fun some patches ago, with boots of stealth and the shadow armor IIRC (I had cheated in UAI).

I'm pretty sure that would work since it's a script.

I don't think the normal Assign Hot Key works because it points to the UI Task Bar stealth button which doesn't exist for non-thieves.
