Or you just use aliases, ex:

Code: Select all

Alias +aKey +left
alias -aKey -left
Bind a +aKey
Alias +changeAKey "alias +aKey join
Alias -changeAKey "alias +aKey +left
bind shift +changeAKey
EDIT: At the request of Konar6 I tried my hand at a "hold / for 30 seconds then append star/remove star" alias:

Code: Select all

set namestring ""; archivecvar namestring
alias appendstar "namestring $name;eval + $name \"\cj*\" name; alias whichstar removestar
alias removestar "name $namestring;alias whichstar appendstar
alias whichstar appendstar
alias +staralias "alias namealias whichstar; wait 30; namealias
alias -staralias "alias namealias \"\"
bind / +staralias
There is probably an easier way to do that but I couldn't think of one right now.

I did it as Llewellyn said. I'm not sure either whether 3rd party macro programs starts to get into a grey area, cheat-wise.

I used Llewellyn's method for appending an asterisk too, although I never made one to remove it. :surprised:

I've been too lazy to set it up in Zandronum, but back in Skulltag, I had a really neat zoom bind that I used: while my middle mouse button was held down, my view got zoomed in, and my mouse sensitivity was simultaneously lowered by a factor of several times.

Two factors make it much better than standard sniper mode in first person shooters:
  • The mouse sensitivity change makes it much easier to aim precisely while you are zoomed in, while allowing you to keep a high sensitivity during other times.
  • Holding down the zoom button, rather than using it as a toggle, makes it much less dangerous to be ambushed while sniping, and much easier to alternate between long and close range combat.

If you like quote binds, you could get kick out of a "It's time to duel" bind, next time you duel. It could annoy (with a slight chance of amusing) anyone old enough to remember.
