No More Useless Keys Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I add a second key binding to an action?
Open your Controls settings, find the action you want to rebind, and look for an option to add an alternative key or create a key combination. The mod lets you assign multiple keys to the same action without removing the original binding.
Can I bind a key combination like Ctrl+K to something?
Yes, the mod supports modifier keys like Ctrl, Shift, and Alt combined with any other key. When setting up a binding, hold down the modifiers while pressing your desired key to register the combination.
What happens if two mods try to use the same key?
You can use this mod to rebind one of the conflicting keys to a different key or combination, allowing both mods to function without interference. Simply add an alternative binding to whichever action you prefer to use less frequently.
Can I have different key bindings for survival and creative mode?
The mod doesn't natively support mode-specific bindings, but you can create a secondary control scheme by setting up alternative key combinations and manually switching between them as needed.
How many alternative keys can I bind to one action?
The mod allows you to define an arbitrary number of alternative key combinations for each action, so you're only limited by your keyboard and personal preference.
Will this mod slow down my game?
No, the mod has minimal performance impact since it only processes key inputs and doesn't affect world generation, rendering, or other intensive systems.
Do alternative key bindings work in GUIs and menus?
Alternative bindings work the same way as primary bindings—they're active whenever the primary binding would be active, including in menus and GUIs depending on the action type.
Can I export or share my key binding configuration?
Your key bindings are saved in your Minecraft configuration files and can be manually copied to another installation, though the mod doesn't provide a built-in export feature.
What should I do if a key binding isn't registering?
Make sure you're not using a key that's reserved by your operating system or another application, and verify the binding was saved by checking the Controls menu again.
Can I bind mouse buttons as alternative keys?
Yes, the mod treats mouse buttons the same as keyboard keys, so you can assign mouse clicks and scroll wheel actions as alternative bindings for any action.
