Riding a taxi

Hi,

 

I know to hail a taxi press the action key but how do you accept the destination? I have tried this before and did it but I have tried it since with no luck The in-game instructions tell to press the button I have set to enter/exit a vehicle. However, if I do Niko exits the taxi. The taxi then drives the destination without him.

 

Thanks,

Yeah, Rockstar seems to have f*cked up the key bindings in this case. The only solution is to change the Enter/Exit vehicle key to something else, ride the taxi, get to the destination and change it back again.

Just press ENTER.

That's the problem. I have assigned the 'Enter' key to enter/exit vehicles. The 'Enter' key is also the default key to select a destination when in a taxi. So, if you press 'Enter', instead of selecting the destination, Niko exits the taxi. And there is no way to change the Select Destination key to anything other than 'Enter'.

And?

Just don't use "Enter" to enter/exit vehicles. How do you play? Arrowkeys?! tounge2.gif

Of course, arrow keys. No WASD for me and I'm used to the 'Enter' key to enter/exit vehicles due to the previous GTA games. It's not a big issue for me though. I hardly take a cab. But when I do, I always have to change the key first.

Same here although, sometimes it is better to take a cab rather than steal a car. I am right-handed and can only use my right-hand because of a disability. The reason I set "Enter" as the enter/exit vehicles was for easy access on the keyboard.

I cannot use any key for enter/exit a vehicle - when I press the key assigned to enter/exit CJ goes into fight mode and kicks the vehicle! What's going on?!

No they did not mess up the bindings.

 

the ENTER KEY to choose destination, not F or "enter/exit"...

 

ffs really? Shifty41s_beerhatsmilie2.gif

Wrong forum! I think you need the San Andreas forum.

That's what I was saying. turn.gif

 

I'm not sure if you've understood it. The Enter key is permanently binded to Select Destination when in a taxi. It cannot be changed. However, they allow you to bind the same Enter key to the Enter/Exit vehicle control (which a lot of people do since being used to the Enter key from previous games). As a result of this, there's a conflict when you're in a taxi. Enter/Exit vehicle has a higher priority and so, when you press Enter to select a destination, instead you end up exiting the taxi. Get it?

ohhhh man is much better to use the f

That's like recommending a controller to someone who has used a keyboard & mouse his whole life or vice versa.

 

I prefer to not use the alphabetical keys for the most used controls unless I really have to. The 'F' key would work fine if I had been using the WASD config. I'll just hope that R* provide an option to change the Select destination key in the coming patches.

while i played gta san andreas, vice city and gta 3 i always used the enter, but now i think and it makes it more easy to use the f because if i have to use the enter i cant have the hand on the mouse and the arrows are for the phone, i admit i was stupid saying that, its all about tastes

Wow how did you manage to bind enter? It didn't allow me, so I had to use "g". Anyway I got used to that, but I'm using the same keys like in SA (except for the enter/exit vehicle)

Update to the latest patch. The Enter key was made bindable in the second or third patch, I don't remember which.
