<div class="IPBDescription">Why Ohh Why did they do it?</div> 1.02 will now try to be "scripter" friendly... thats total crap, scripters suck and will always suck, learn to use the mouse wheel or bind your slots to keys. I was soo happy when scripters just died trying to do their stupid **obscenity**, now its all over... this game is gunna head the way of CS if this keeps up...

Baloney.
The game still tries to prevent scripts as it always did. Today there were a few times when I tried to bite with the lerk, switch quickly to umbra, and make an umbra cloud. Well it made the umbra sound, and my energy went down, but no umbra. That's a lot better than getting killed because of it.
so this script of mine that helps commanders is bad (<a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=20&t=8598&st=30' target='_blank'>Post</a>)?? lol
scripting is part of the HL engine. live with it.

Really, he's right. How do you think this is going to end up like CS? I dunno how scripts would ruin the game.... Also, scripts <i>are</i> a part of Half Life. The developers are just dissallowing (is that a word?) some certain features. I really don't see what you think is so bad.
The blink bug IS a scripting issue. The anti-script code thinks you're trying to use a script because you switch weapons and fire too fast. It's the same thing with the umbra.
Scripts are BS always have been always will be, Ill own any scripter with stock HL config on any stock HL map
(points to the stupid jumping bean taucannon nade abuser)
Scripts are to take advantage of people who play stock, adn weapon binds only became avalible in Opp Force (gearbox) not HL (valve)

People think binds/scripts are normal, when they only became popular like a year ago, and I think the commander SHOULD click on the menus to drop stuff (save ammo and health) Im sure ill be getting yelled at anyway
He's talking about when you blink and immediately switch to slash and fire. You would sometimes get killed, because of the anti-script code.
GreyPaws, I'm not going to bother arguing about the advantages of scripts. But your complaint is kinda pointless. <u>NS still blocks scripts.</u> It just doesn't KILL you if you try to use one, so people aren't spending 70 resources on an onos, and then popping out of existence because they're fast with the keyboard. This way it just doesn't perform the attack or whatever. Alien ability scripts are still useless.
skilled-scripting is when you blink and MANUALLY switch 2 slash
scripting is when u make an alias 2 do it for you

That's a script, isn't it? Yup.

Nope, thats a bind

alias leap2bites "weapon3; +attack; weapon1; +attack; -attack; +attack; -attack"
bind mouse1 "leap2bites"
<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
<i>THATS</i> a script (or rather, looks like one. I doubt I've got it quite right) Lets say you're a skulk with 2 hives, just clicking mouse1 would (in theory) have you leap at an enemy, switch weapons, and bite twice. Who's playing the game, you or your scripts?

actually no, the general consesus is that that would be considered a bind. A script is when you have 2 or more commands bound to the same key.
