'Nextweapon' Command

nauwranauwra Join Date: 2008-05-04 Member: 64210Members
When playing ASDW, I've got some binds taking the place of 1,2,3, and 4. In NS, there was a next/prev weapon command that allowed me to navigate my abilities/weapons.

Is there a command for that, or plans to implement one?

    Indeed. Releasing control over movement in order to select weapons doesn't work out for me. Never been a fan of mousewheel for scrolling weapons/abilities, it's too easy to lose fine motor control under stress.

    Short of being doped up on benzos, quickswitch is the way to go. Hopefully someone will chime in with a list of cvars soon.

    It's on the list and a must have as far as I'm concerned (been trolling the devs constantly about it :P) However it's currently not possible because they literally ran out of key bindings in the engine.

    Hmm, now if only there was somebody at UWE who knew something about the inner workings of the engine... If only UWE had access to the engine's source code so that such an enhancement might be made... ;)

    I expect it's just a matter of time, but compared to getting the game to not crash and such it'll take a little bit.
