bind mouse1 "+prim" 
bind mouse2 "+secd"
bind mouse4 "+mel"

alias +prim "slot1;+attack"
alias -prim "-attack"
alias +secd "slot2;+attack"
alias -secd "-attack"
alias +mel "slot3;+attack"
alias -mel "-attack"
alias +prim "slot1;r_drawviewmodel 0; +attack;"
alias +secd "slot2;r_drawviewmodel 0; +attack;"
alias +mel"slot3;r_drawviewmodel 1; +attack"

What's the point of shooting with the same key you select your weapon with?

I think with "slot1; slot2" you can switch back and forth between your secondary and primary?
No idea what that extra ";slot1" would be good for.

bind F5 "load_itempreset 0; alias 1load load_itempreset 0"
bind F6 "load_itempreset 1; alias 1load load_itempreset 1"
bind F7 "load_itempreset 2; alias 1load load_itempreset 2"
bind F8 "load_itempreset 3; alias 1load load_itempreset 3"

alias 1load load_itempreset 0
bind 1 1load

Maybe put the scipt in a extra config file and then put "host_writeconfig 1load.cfg" after the "alias 1load load_itempreset" part?
Not sure if that would work, just an idea.

Edit: If that doesn't work, try using bind instead of alias.
So "bind 1 load_itempreset X" instead of "alias 1load load_itempreset X"
Binds that are created from withing the game do save, while aliases don't.

Or maybe a simple bind like

bind [key] "+quit"
alias "+quit" "host_writeconfig"
alias "-quit" "quit"

could do the trick?
Always use that bind to close the game so all the commands that were changed while the game is running get saved before you close it.

Haven't tested any of those, just some ideas that I think might work.

Mkay...?

I really enjoy writing scripts, especially when they are of actual use for me in-game.

So I was wondering what your favorite scripts are.
Mainly looking for scripts that are designet to help your gameplay or make things more convenient and not so much in chat spam scripts and stuff like that, but post whatever scripts you want.

I'll start:

Winger-Jump Script:

alias "+wjump" "slot2; +jump; +duck"
alias "-wjump" "slot1; -jump; -duck"
bind [key] +wjump

So this is my script for the scout when playing with the Winger.
It allows you to switch to the winger for extra jump-height and switch back to the scattergun after the jump really fast and effortlessly with just a single button.
Really basic and straight-forward script, but probably the one that has the most actual use for me.

Hope i don't get trashed for this thread like that other guy with his duck-jump script xD

You should be. They are better in every single way.
The initial installation might look a little annoying but they are much easier to handle in the long run (for example because they will never be off-center ;)

So according to this poll you have the best chance to get the role you want (if you can/only want to play one) is med or scout (since there are two scouts) and the worst chance if you want to play roamer.
Pretty much what I expected.
Just a little surprised demo is more popular than pocket.
But scout and roamer being the most played and medic being the least played was to be expected.

Since the game was released.

Hoped this would fix my mic being super quiet ever since the new codec... it didn't :(

I think most good scout kinda use a mix of tracking and flick aim.
Some lean more towards tracking and some more towards flicking, but in general it's not necessary to try super hard to have your crosshair on the guy 100% of the time when it only has to be on him for a split second every time you shoot, but on the same time letting the enemy go to the edge of your screen between shots and then do a huge flick for every shot will definitely hurt your consistency.
When people say most good scouts use tracking aim I think that's not completely accurate, because real track aim to me means the kinda aiming you do when using a LG in quake or a pistol or minigun in TF2 where you try to keep your crosshair on top of the enemy all the time.
Doing that with a scattergun isn't only unnecessary but imo will also hurt your accuracy.
Your wrist will constantly end up in weird angles because you can't reset your mouse, you can't air strafe and in general it's just an unnecessary effort that takes your attention away from more important stuff.
When I watch pro scouts play most of them will keep their crosshair close to the enemy but don't exactly follow every small movement they make and instead allow their crosshairs to wander slighly off target between shots and then do very small flicks before they shoot.

You entire screen is within your field of view at all times tho.
So even if an enemy is at the corner of your screen you still barely have to move your eyes.
It's really easy to test: Look at the top right corner of your screen. Close your right eye. Does your nose block any part of the screen now? It doesn't for me and unless you either have a HUGE nose or have your face like 1 centimeter away from your screen, I'm sure it doesn't for you either.
And if your nose doesn't block your view at all, there's zero reason for your dominant eye to change.

The problem with your theory is that you rarely really move your eyes when playing a FPS.
The angle of view changes on the monitor (inside of the monitor, the monitor stays in the same place - I don't think that kind of change in angle of view has any effect on what our dominant eye is).
The angle of view at which we look at our monitor however doesn't change at all. It's always straight in front of us so we don't have to shift our heads or rotate out eyes to look at it.
Remember the part about our nose getting in the way of one eye so the other eye which isn't blocked becomes the dominant one?
That doesn't happen at all while looking at a monitor, so why would your dominant eye change?

I messed around with that idea for a bit now, but all I was able to accomplish was removing my ammo counter entirely lol.
I need help from someone who knows a lot more about HUD editing than I do :)

Hmm the cow mangler already has a bar so there must be something in the HUD/game files that allows ammo to be represented as a bar. My initial thought was to just use the cow mangler weapon script and modify it but I guess it won't be that easy.

I was wondering if it was possible to turn your ammo counter into a bar rather than numbers.
Like the cow mangled uses a bar.
I think it's easier to instantly know how much rocks you have left when it's a bar instead of numbers.
