Hello,
I never was able to get hotkeys to work by binding.
So here is the question:
When being commander, if possible what would a bind or alias be to get health or ammo without manually going thru the diff menus and selecting ammo or health.
So that no matter whatever menu u are in it will get u to and select the ammo or health with one key stroke. Seems it could be done with the hotkeys but I cant get them to work.
Would be handy when ur team is yelling for ammo or health in the middle of a firefight and u are in a different menu.
Im running 2.0
thanks for any help

Also:
"Q" = Build
"W" = Advanced buildings
"R" = Equipment
And it works for the other menus too, eg: If you want to build a Res Tower, press "Q" then "A", and if you want the building next to the RT on the menu, press "S" etc. etc.
Umm...I might have explained it in a little complicated way, because English isn't my main language, but I hope this helps.

QWER
ASDF
YXCV (or ZXCV on an american keyboard)
Those are hotkeys in commander mode, and they still work.

Whoo... give it up for German keyboards! qwertz for ever!
<!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->bind "l" "R;*"<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
in turn this should jump to the equipmenu then select the medical pack in one go.
If this does work what you could do is in autoexec.cfg is type in
<!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->alias "medicalpack" "R;*"<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
then in config.cfg have
<!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->bind "l" "medicalpack"<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
------------------------- Key -------------------------
l = the key you want it bound to but not any of the pre-defined commander keys
R = the key you have bound for the equipment menu
* = what ever the key is for the medical pack on the equip menu
------------------------- Key -------------------------
The key above applies to both examples.
<!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->bind "l" "R;*"<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2--><!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Clever idea nix but it would not work.
In a script you can only call aliases and impulses, not the keys they are bound to.
davidchomes:
It only takes two key presses to get to the med pack. Both of the keys are right under your fingers if you use was&d for movement like most people.
by default:
W takes you to the right menu
S puts a medpack in your 'hand'
You can change what the hotkeys are by editing this line in your config.cfg:
<!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->cl_cmhotkeys "qwerasdfzxcv"<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
eg if you changed it to
<!--c1--></span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><!--ec1-->cl_cmhotkeys "qkerasdfzxcv"<!--c2--></td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'><!--ec2-->
Then k woud take you to the ammo/health menu.
by default:
W takes you to the right menu
S puts a medpack in your 'hand'
<!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
?
In commander mode E,S drops a medpack... <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
