Is it possible to display some sort of notice or message when a certain key/bind is activated? I can't seem to think of any other way other than having a "say_team" bind or echoing to my console(which I would only see if I bring up the console).

As far as I know the best way to do stuff like that is using developer mode like this:

But it's a messy solution that I wish there was an alternative for.

If you do something like

alias +show "developer 1; echo Command done.; <your command>;"
alias -show "developer 0;"
bind f +show

you'll see it while you hold the button, but still see anything else that shows up in your console normally.

If you do something like
[code]alias +show "developer 1; echo Command done.; <your command>;"
alias -show "developer 0;"
bind f +show[/code]
you'll see it while you hold the button, but still see anything else that shows up in your console normally.

I'm not quite sure what you want displayed to the screen but you could probably do something like how the uber tracking hud mod works:

See bennzl's post about it running for a certain amount of time then turning off

Custom closed captions can also do this too:
