Key Bind/script For Wall Walk Toggle

Xzilen · April 2003

<div class="IPBDescription">Eh, could someone help?</div> Yes, its been answered before, but the one I was given always turned wall walk back on when I jumped. Could someone help me keep this so I don't have to constantly rebind it, and so it toggles walk walk off even if I jump?

Thank you <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

Basically wall-walk is always on, there is no way to not get off a wall when you jump. But if you mean that you don't want to stick to walls then use this:
</span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'>alias "useon" "+duck; bind capslock useoff"
alias "useoff" "-duck; bind capslock useon"
bind capslock "useon"</td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'>

And replace all capslock's with your desired key.

Thank you good sir!

By the way, lets say I did

alias "useon" "+duck;bind x useoff"

alias "useoff" "-duck;bind z "useon"

which key would I use for bind "useon" at the end of it?

the need for this script is what precisely?

I see nothing there I can't achieve already without any problem....

If you press too many keys at once, keyboards sometimes get fussy.
It happens to me a lot when I am gorging and trying to build while moving/jumping at the same time.

4 keys at once often clogs keyboards and makes them beep. I now use a build toggle that toggles my use command so that I am not holding down a key while building. It keeps my keyboard happy.

Yea, my keyboard would always beep when Id play cstrike. Jumping, while crouched, strafing, and zooming in. BEEP BEEP!
I have mouse2 bound to +forward so that really cuts down on the most used keyboard key so, imagine how much id be doing to still trigger the keyboard to beep. hehe.
Any wall walking rocks. if you dont want to, tap crouch.

Hey your keyboards must suck!!!

This could be because of a crap keyboard controler (on the motherboard). You could try to work around it with USB - either a ps/2 -> usb convertor or a usb keyboard. (Try your keyboard on another machine that's keyboard works first though.)

Damn, even with this, it toggles wall walk back on every time I jump... And I think I just realized why, I have jump croutch binded lol.

I don't know if it's just my usb keyboard, but 4 keys or more at once will still have it acting funny. And you'd expect better from a Microsoft Natural Pro...maybe it's because I have an OEM version that came with dells some years ago...

I've had issues with HL and pressing too many keys at once; sometimes one of my movement keys will "stick" and I'll keep moving that direction until I press the key again. It's not a keyboard issue; it's the HL engine failing to receive/process the "-moveleft" command (or whichever). I think HL can't handle too many simultaneous inputs, or perhaps too many "open" inputs (e.g. +attack waiting for a -attack). Just theorizing.

Rue · May 2003

yeh its just ur mobo's limit on its input , weird thing is that my new mobo can only cope with 6 buttons and my 4 year old one can cope with 9 diffrent inputs <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>, back on topic tho i dont realy see much need for this :/

I tried a wallwalk toggle bind for a little while... I, too, don't really see a need for it. My guess is that the people who like are AvP2 players, who are used to that kind of configuration. Personally, I think the auto-wallwalk in NS is quite nice; since you don't *stick* to the wall, you can very quickly jump on and off walls and ceilings, making full use of all 4 surfaces. In AvP2, I spent most of my time either *just* on the ground or *just* on walls/ceilings. Actually, I think I spent most of my time pouncing. That ability was way too effective. ^^

LoveDaddy · May 2003

OMG!!!

Thank you for finally explaining why my keyboard shaggs up while i play DoD....dosnt seem to hapen in NS....but it anoyed teh f**k out of me ....yay

its an excuse to get a new mobo...ehehhehe

ThinG · May 2003

I sooooo don't get the point of the question in the thread...

I mean you can't press space and shift while moving and/or attacking?
I dont get it...

civman2 · May 2003

pushing w a crtl space and e at the same time is hard to do anyway :-p. That's why jump is mouse4.

I'm thinking rebinding shift to +crouch isn't that bad of an idea ever, i only use walk when im in the chair and trying to scroll with precision.

Zel · May 2003

ive never seen the need to do more than ctrl+w+d+space to be a super skulk. keyboards standard can handle only 3 buttons, BUT, ctrl, shift, and alt and maybe other standard toggles arent the same as keys.

if you mash down asdf your keyboard will get angry, but if you do control alt shift was, its fine. jsut rearrange your keys if youre really pressing that many at once...

with the crouch key so convienient, ive never needed to toggle off wallwalk, jsut hold it while near vents and such.

TheHornet · May 2003

a wallwalk bind also doubles as a crouch bind for marines, which is nice when your sitting in corners for long periods of times waiting for a skulk.

MrPink · May 2003

Well, I don't know much about scripts but I know a bit...couldn't you just bind -jump to re-activate the script?

TheGlow · May 2003

I have crouch on X. The only thing I cant do is jump crouch strafing right. And thus far, I cant recall this limit hampering. Then again what good is right when you can turn 180 and now its a left! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'>

tseepra · May 2003

I use this sometimes when I go one on one on a marine, because you know sometimes you climb up the marine and then you are in his face and you are dead, and for vents this is usefull, so you can actually hit the marine.

</span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'>alias "useon" "+duck;bind x useoff"

alias "useoff" "-duck;bind z "useon"
</td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'>
umm.. you want one key that puts duck on and one that puts it off? all you would have to do then is:
</span><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>CODE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'>bind "x" "+duck"
bind "y" "-duck"</td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'>
Now x would put on anti-stick and y would take it off.

PetitMorte · May 2003

Allow me to point out one minor thing to all crouch-togglers...

If you have a +action in the + state when you die, you CANNOT RESPAWN until you - it.

eg: if you toggle crouch on, then die, you won't be able to spawn until you toggle crouch back off.

The same goes for +attack, +jump, or any other +action.
