New Teleport bind program!

[Brianna Landers]

Hey, everyone! I'm posting this here so the original author can keep an eye on the thread. As many of you know, I am a long-time member of the Infinity Taxibots. And as you know, the Taxibots have some of the neatest teleport binds for Badge Tours and general teleporting (when you have a full team of 8 with Recall Friend, it helps to know who's teleporting who). Anyway, one of our really industrous Taxis has come up with a program that will write the files for you! Check it out!

Hey Guys,

I was learning Visual Basic for my office and I decided to make something for the taxis as my first project.

This little program asks you what combination of keys you would like to use and what you would like for it to say, then helps you save the new bind to a text file that you can load in-game by typing /bindloadfile TP1.txt

This only works for Recall Friend, not for Shadow Recall.

If y'all like this, I'll get to adding other powers later.

Enjoy!

Edit: This assumes that your game directory is C:/Program Files/ City of Heroes/

If it is not, save the file to the "data" folder in your game directory to load with the above command.

Also, if you know the proper COH name for the keys you want to use; the drop downs accept free-form input. Feel free to ask if you don't know what the keys you want to use are called.

Now you need .NET 2.0 to run it, but it looks pretty handy for anyone out there that has Recall Friend and uses it regularyl!

Fixed a small bug with the "tilde" option, all better now.

I know its not a TP bind but I was wondering what the bind was for the SJS channel? does anyone know it?

The answer to your question can be found in the SJS Global thread.

My favoritest part of playing CoX was designing bind files to customize the CoX experience.

Brianna can tell you of my capabilities and limitations.

If any of you want help and have at least a vague idea of what you want, I'd be glad to make some up for you. I check this thread pretty much daily, so here is the best way to reach me.

Can you help me make one to switch costumes and say something while emoting? I have done it before but only once and then deleted that character and havent been able to since....plus I forget to ask those people who do.

I sure can!

/bind key "CC0$$say Stuff!$$e flip"

-Let me know which Key you want to use, that'll go for "key"

-CC0 sets it to your 1st costume. 1 is your second, etc. all the way to CC4 for your 5th (if you got that Halloween thingy)

-Say will say the text wherever you have selected. I generally discourage this, because I like to have more control over where things are said. If you want it in local, use L or G for team.

-e flip is the emote! There are bunches and bunches of emotes, but I think you get it from there.

One quick correction, it's CC 0, not CC0.

Let me know if you guys want anything else. ^_^

Could I get the bind for the afk while you type thing.... >.>

I had it before but I can't remember the bind for the life of me.

[Mimi]

That'd be right here.

/bind enter "afk I'm Typing!$$e type$$startchat"

AFK message, typing emote, and chat startings.

Warning: This bind can create an AFK auto-respone feedback that can and will chatban someone!

Here's a handy "speed on demand" bind for constant-fliers;
It's actually a set of binds. Making you toggle-on Fly when you move forward or jump, and hover when you stop, back up, turn, or press x to move down:

/bind w "+forward$$powexectoggleon hover$$powexecname fly"
/bind space "+up$$powexectoggleon hover$$powexecname fly"
/bind x "+down$$powexectoggleon hover"
/bind s "+backward$$powexectoggleon hover"
/bind q "+turnleft$$powexectoggleon hover"
/bind e "+turnright$$powexectoggleon hover"


Not a constant flier, but think this would be neat anyways? Make these files:
C:/FlyOn.txt

w "+forward$$powexectoggleon hover$$powexecname fly"
space "+up$$powexectoggleon hover$$powexecname fly"
x "+down$$powexectoggleon hover"
s "+backward$$powexectoggleon hover"
q "+turnleft$$powexectoggleon hover"
e "+turnright$$powexectoggleon hover"
ctrl+space "powexectoggleoff Hover$$powexectoggleoff Fly$$bindloadfile C:/FlyOff.txt"

C:/FlyOff.txt

w +forward
space +up
x +down
q +turnleft
e +turnright
shift+space "+up$$powexectoggleon hover$$powexecname fly$$bindloadfile C:/FlyOn.txt"

Then, type /bindloadfile C:/Flyoff.txt in-game.
Press shift+space to start flying, and ctrl+jump to stop flying

Tried it and hate it? Type the following to undo it:
/unbind q$$unbind w$$unbind e$$unbind s$$unbind x$$unbind space

Advanced PC Users: Put these files in another directory if you like, just be sure to change both file's idea of where the files are here: bindloadfile C:/FlyOn.txt

No Fliers in the group, eh?
