<div class="IPBDescription">Where can I find'em?</div> Hi!
In CS u can use console commands to bind different actions to a key on your keyboard. I wonder if that's possible in NS? If so, where can I find a list of which commands I can use?
For an example. I wan't to bind medpacks to a key, say 'M', how?
I know I'm a noob, but I'm trying to get past that u know <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

A list of NS impulse commands, if you want to bind medpack to M you write
bind m "impulse 10"
in the console.

yes this will work however you still need to be in the "equip" menu
so you would also need to either click on the menu or bind another button to hotkey88
all commander binds are like that, menu must be open for you to use a binded key. so if you binded a key to TF, you'd have to be in "basic build" before the hotkey would work.
No, in HALF-LIFE you can use the console to bind different actions to keys on your keyboard.
Sorry, that was really bugging me. You can use the console in any Half-Life mod (yes, CS is a mod of HL.)
As for the actual commands themselves, alien evolutions and buildings and marine comms are all impulse commands. Commander instructions are "hotkeys", special thingumies devised by Flayra to counter scripting. There is a list of these commands floating around somewhere; do a search for "list of impulse commands".
CS is a mod of HL !?
Noooo !
HL is a mod of CS !
Everything is a mod of CS !
UT, quake, Red Alert
EVERYTHING !
Bow to CS !
....
Is what I'd say if I were an ironic evil blastard making fun of CS-players...
Ooh, wait..
I am...

So why all this fuss about doing it ingame with NS's console?

It's faster, more fun, and you can do scripting with the console. And you can do it while you're in the middle of a game without leaving the action.

And of course you can't bind all commands from the menu
And the winner of longest quote is....

Does this mean you have to rebind keys everytime you start a new game of NS or can you store your bindings as a txt file which automatically opens when you play?

I'm pretty sure that you will have to rebind(but not 100%)
As your config.cfg has UNBINDALL as the first command
(btw all your binds are stored in config.cfg)
so if you want, just open it up in any text editor(notepad) and bind away. This way you are sure to have the binds everytime you go into a game.
You can take it a step further and make multiple configs for both teams, just make binds like this
bind "f11" "exec alien.cfg"
bind "f12" "exec marine.cfg"
will load a file called alien.cfg to replace the current config.cfg(all your curren binds)
the same goes for f12, just make 2 files with their respective binds and you're all set
