If an action key is configured with a modifier (e.g. "Right Ctrl + M" for "MiniMapToggle"), the DIK code returned by this command has a weird value, equivalent to the following:

Left Ctrl + Key = 486539264 + DIK
Left Shift + Key = 704643072 + DIK
Left Alt + Key = 939524096 + DIK
Right Ctrl + Key = -1660944384 + DIK
Right Shift + Key = 905969664 + DIK
Right Alt + Key = -1207959552 + DIK

For example, to detect if actionKeys "NetworkPlayers" contain a match for "Right Ctrl + P", one must do the following: if (-1660944359 in actionKeys "NetworkPlayers") then with -1660944359 being equal to -1660944384 + 25, and 25 being the DIK code for the "P" key.

This increases the difficulty of accurately comparing key codes to actionKeys in UI event handlers. Those strange numbers are probably due to bit flags being added to the DIK value by the game engine for easier storage in the ArmaProfile.
