Summary0001962: Requesting "weapbest" (Best Weapon) feature
DescriptionOkay so, I don't know if that's been requested already or planned for a future version / Zan 2.0, but I find it useful to have weapbest as a keybind.

Once weapbest binded to a key, you'll not have to bother using weapon binds nor the mouse wheel, since you're gonna switch to your best weapon, no matter what the weapon cycle is set at.

Actually I've found an alternative to that, which is a long line of console commands:

mouse3 = cl_noammoswitch false; slot 1; slot 2; use shotgun; slot 4; slot 5; slot 6; slot 7; slot 8; slot 9; use supershotgun; cl_noammoswitch false

This is quite useful because, when used as above (if cl_noammoswitch is at false at first), it'll make the game detect your best weapons that have ammos, the problem being "use shotgun" and "use supershotgun" doesn't work online, so that doesn't work well, unless you replace "use sg/ssg" by "slot 3", which is not what I'd like to do. So yeah, Weapbest would definitely be a good thing, although it's not a priority, so, take your times...

I found out that using "use" several times in one command line will not work as expected. You have to place "wait 1;" between each "use" command.

Using "use" several times in one command? Got it. Gotta check that out, thanks! :D

PS: how do I use the +wait function?

it's "wait" not "+wait"

so it's just wait (time)
example:
mouse3 = cl_noammoswitch false; slot 1; slot 2; use shotgun; wait 1; slot 4 etc

With PWO (which is already in obviously), I could see this being very useful.
