Tip from me, also add the button that you binded to open the stratagem menu to a hotkey in streamdeck and this way you can really run without hitting the stratagem menu first and then press a button on the streamdeck.

After much tinkering, I've found that making your ctrl to press instead of hold, allows you to add ctrl to the start of every stratagems. your welcome.

Yeah as good of an idea this is, I am having issues with my stream deck producing similar results. I have plugged in everything correctly and have made a specific profile for Helldivers in my stream deck and none of the button presses are registering in the macro. I too have switched my stratgem keys to the arrow keys but still nothing. I am on 60% keyboard (no physical arrow keys) but i doubt that is the issue.

Edit: Run Stream Deck in Admin Mode permanently. Select the exe file wherever you have it stored. Select Properties. Compatibility Tab. Under Settings section select "Run this program as admin". Apply and Ok.

I love reaching for those arrow keys. Whatever helps you spread Managed Democracy 🦅 I imagine each unique input method being a result of helldivers tinkering with their armor to improve their combat efficiency

[Despicable-GG]

you can do this on the razer synaps without a streamdeck and just use your num pads

Bro I was just thinking of this just now and I looked it up, I thought I was the only one haha

[MrFunzerker]

The stressful but also fun part of the strategem is that it's a little minigame and if you mess up, you gotta do it again while your enemies get closer and closer. That it is meant to be that way as it's a race against time to use a particular equipment or complete an objective before your time being alive runs out. This method cheats that totally and should not be something widely accepted in my opinion. I liked your video as a whole, you explain things very well and it is easy to follow. Cheers!

I just changed the key bindings and I open strategem list with the page forward button on mouse and enter the directions on the arrow keys on right side of the keyboard. can run full blown sprint and do it faster than this stream deck.

Cant seem to even get it register use of arrow keys

[svenhinners]

Can i put a cooldown Timer after the button? I push the button and use the strategem and then a cooldown shows in the deck when i can use it again

[SurferDudex]

If i have a pc to set this up can i then plug the deck into my PS5 like a keyboard and get it working?

[MikeMontgomery]

Why not just add 'Tab' to the macro too?

[zeeunveil]

Never had a used for a steam deck now I do 😂

[navyblk]

I just set this up but with this set up when I go to a terminal will I have to use the direction keys? Will changing the setting prevent me from using wsad to control terminals?

[jay._zer]

Aynone wanting to try this, IMO better off using the mobile version of the streamdeck! You are limited to how many buttons I think but it works really well and you don't have to go out of your way to buy a stream deck

[ogabs]

Has anyone had their stream deck stopped working on the game? Mine was working and all of a sudden it stopped working

[joeywhitfield]

will it work for the razer stream controller x?

[Narnyreloaded]

What about super macro's? for example, cant get to work yet but it should.

[deanofgames]

Perhaps a dumb question from a new user, but how are you opening the Steam Deck window to set up the hot keys?

[FreKeyande]

How do change so you can move at same time? i swapped hotkeys to arrowkeys and can activate macro but if i start moving it cancels the macro
