<div class="IPBDescription">^^ in that **** voice :D</div> Well, it doesn't seem to work for me. Parhaps its because my jump key is mouse3?

Suggestions please <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Binds on the mouse do not work in commander mode. Bind it to a keyboard key, and not one of the ones used for commander shortucts (cl_commandhotkeys or whatever the cvar is).

    Well I guess that explains it ;(
    Thanks

    Is that a bug or a 'feature' ?

    It's probably listed in the bug tracker, but tbh it seems like its not really easy to work around

    It's done on purpose <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Also, people were supposed to use a seperate jump key on their keyboard, because there was a time when you had to use a mouse button to use the popupmenu (usually mouse2).

    that feature never works for me.

    it'll snap me to some random location, every time. it's very obnoxious.

    I'm sure that's because at times, so much is happening at once. RT in West Access is under attack, while you're securing Cargo Bay and spamming meds to three HA's in Fusion, all the while trying to maintain double. By the time you press you jump key (yes, even if it's a split second later), the original warning has been overwritten by half a dozen others.

    Whenever you have a mouse cursor, all mouse binds are ignored. This means it not only happens while commanding, but also while spectating (by the spectator team or by the death camera).

    Logically it should also occur when the popup menu is opened, but I haven't tested it.
    Edit: Tested it, and it holds true in this case as well.

    in those situations u need to prioritise... for example the 3 ha's are propably a bit more important than the rt.

    not only they are ignored, but are kept in their state. For example, if you have voicecomm on mouse4, and if you're talking while going in the CC or getting the menu out, then you are left talking (I think. The icon is still there)

    Where would you put your jump key if you have no left thumb?


    Thanks for explanation guys, I will bind extra jump key just for commanding <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
