Bind key grenade drop - cheers

[saggyherman]

Hi, being a fan of grenade lobbing with the grav gun I'd like a key bind that switches to grenade from whatever weapon I'm on at the time and alt-fires it (drop) then switches to the grav gun if possible. All help appreciated as I've searched the forum and am too dense to understand the bind command - cheers

Current key presses to grab a grenade are :-

5 - mouse1 - mouse2 - g - mouse2
so I'd like to bind the 5 - mouse1 - mouse2 - g into one key press.

Is it really that difficult to just press g?

I can seperately get you to switch to grenade. And I can also get the grenade to drop.. (switching to grav at end is easy) but I can't get both to do it together...
bind q "use weapon_frag;wait;wait;+attack2;-attack2;wait;wait;use weapon_physcannon"

that *should* in theory work but in practice it doesn't drop the grenade

 

[Synthos]

maybe i'm using wait incorrectly.. i read that it stops parsing until the next frame.. which means if you have about 40fps .. you'd need about 80 waits in-between taking out your grenade and secondary trigger

Thanks mate this is really useful! I'll play around with sticking loads of waits into the bind to see what happens. The grav-grenade throw is such a useful and deadly weapon it would be great to get it working. Thanks for your time!

do something like

alias wait2 "wait;wait"
alias wait4 "wait2;wait2"
alias wait8 "wait4"wait4"
alias wait16 "wait16;wait16"
alias wait32 "wait32;wait32"

or

alias "waitl" "wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait;wait"

i tried the wait32 etc.. stuff on my comp and it froze.. anyone else try it?

 

[bi0_gauss]

just tested this and it works

Place in
X:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\[email protected]\half-life 2 deathmatch\hl2mp\cfg
and have
bind x "grav" in your configs..

its timed a little off atm but you can play with the waits and make it work..its needs less waits after the attack ..personally think its useless though

 

[Skie]

the reason it doesn't work is he messed up the last bit of his example.. but I bet the zip he posted works...

alias wait2 "wait;wait"
alias wait4 "wait2;wait2"
alias wait8 "wait4"wait4"
alias wait16 "wait8;wait8"
alias wait32 "wait16;wait16"

 

[bi0_gauss]

heh oops..

but the zip works :bounce:

 

[benpatient]

hehe. yeah. i saw that too...I was like...wait...you can't alias something that doesn't exist yet.

 

[pentagon]

cool script, seems a little slow though. The nade explodes before it switches to my gav gun (most the time).

 

[bi0_gauss]

reason i said the timing needed sorted..but being bored as hell i went ahead and did it
gives ya plenty of time to get to grav gun now...

[pentagon]

sorry didn't see that part, thanks alot though!

 

[saggyherman]

Excellent, thanks for getting back to me on this one, I feel my SkILLz will be much awesomed. :afro:

 

[pentagon]

the script will freeze me sometimes, and won't let me move until the script has played out. anyone have this problem?

 

[Nindoze]

spare yourself the hassle of the wait binds and just do it manually

youll feel more accomplished and its honestly not that hard

-best thing i like to do is bounce it on the floor striaght into their face HEAHEHAEHE

 

[bi0_gauss]

ya manual is def better option tbh...

not sure why ya would stick..maybe the waits i dunno
