Commander Hotkeys

slypumpkin

I was wondering if there was a way to bind commander options to hotkeys. Something like binding a key to automatically select medpacks so all i have to do is click and drop one. This would greatly increase the effinciency of any commander.

You can do it in the options screen. To drop ammo, health, or anything else, you have to be on the equipment menu first. So you can't just press one button to drop health, you'd have to press the equipment menu hotkey, then the health one.

ok thanks for the tip.

personally, they should let u bind keys already bound to MARINE/MOVEMENT/WEAPON keys to commander (if possible) because u cant really move, or fire in the command seat....

There are a few scripts that allow you to change your hotkeys from marine movement to more commander-friendly ones. Dig around on the main forum for a bit, I know of 4 off of the top of my head.

I made a script for me which has all buildmenu functions on the keypad.
But you can switch easely between alien, marine and commander configurations.


You can try it out. Link in sig
