<div class="IPBDescription">just 2 in fact</div> Hi there,
i have been playing NS for a while but didn't want to ask questions on servers other wise flamage starts.
1. I see some comms put meds down really fast, how is this done?
2. How do i get the "Guard" command when i'm comm.

EDIT:: The commander puts down med's fast by using hotkeys. All the hotkeys are on the left side of the keyboard, aligned to the command console's buttons, they are as followed...

When the commander hits "E" while in the command chair, it brings up the "assist" menu. This menu allows you to drop medpacks. Next, he hits "S" (Which selects the medpack) and then clicks on the ground. Hitting "S" is the same as clicking the medpack. When he clicks on the ground, the medpack appears. He keeps his cursor in the same spot, then hits "S", then he clicks again. You can do this really, extreamly fast and keep the medpack amount flowing.
Have fun with NS! My guides right <a href='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?act=ST&f=17&t=44597' target='_blank'>here (click)</a>, it could be as some help to you, although I'm not finished with it yet.
To answer the second question, putting a guard waypoint is extreamly hard. It used to be easy in the old versions, you would just click on the target, but now you have to click on the smallest little spot on the target, I'm not even sure where. All I know is its hard to get, so dont worry about it.
The waypoints included...
Go to waypoint
Enemies nearby (Put the waypoint over the enemies head, so you could easily see him and keep track of him when he was in your view)
Build structure at waypoint
Guard waypoint
Pick up equipment at waypoint
Weld target at waypoint
Nice to get some decent people in here

The 'aliens nearby' used to be a god send for chasing that pack of skulks without MT.
