<div class="IPBDescription">Please explain...</div>I was just wondering what the RC8 changelog entry below is referring to:
O Addressed exploits where alien abilities could be bound to keys (player is immediately killed). Go ahead and try abusing this and let me know if you can still exploit the system. In fact, exploit NS as much as possible and let me know about anything you can do. It should be fairly cheat proof as far as the NS rules go.
It would seem to be saying that you cannot bind alien abilities to keys, and yet Gutterclutch asked that very same question:
"Can no ability keys be bound to the keyboard? It is illegal to use anything but that rightclick menu thing to do anything?"
And MonsieurEvil replied with:
"YOu can bind all the upgrades, evolutions, abilties, weapons, vox, etc. to the keyboard, either via using the HL config menu, or the console commands."
So again I ask you, what is that entry referring to? Thanks in advance.

PS The above quotations, except for the changelog entry itself, are from the stickied RC8 changelog topic, page 12 I think.

Quite cheap, and exploits the people who don't know the H scripting commands.
That's why it was an exploit.
Actually, it does not. Some tiresome person started that as a rumor. You blink, then switch to slash. I suppose you could make an alias to do it if you wanted to be all l337.
Incidentally, thanks for clearings things up Monse and Greedo. Much appreciated...
