[PC]Fake Grenade Weaponbank Script

(DarkangelUK) #1

I know there’s a few who don’t like having to use a key off their mouse to throw grenades, as it can mess up movement and timing when cooking, so I’ve got a small script that simulates having the grenade as a weaponbank ET style.

I tested and it works fine, you’ll get a prompt at the middle left to say when grenade is equipped and when you’re back to normal shooting. There’s a slight pause when using it as it does a rebind, but it’s workable. Obviously change G to whatever key you want to use as your nade.

So press G and it’ll say Grenade Equipped at the left and you can prime and throw with Mouse1, press G again and it’ll say Weapon Equipped and you’ll fire your gun as normal. Screenshot here

//DarkangelUK’s fake grenade weaponbank script
set nadearmed “bind G $nadedisarmed; bind mouse1 _useGrenade; addchatline ‘Grenade Equipped’”
set nadedisarmed “bind G $nadearmed; bind mouse1 _attack; addchatline ‘Weapon Equipped’”
bind G $nadearmed

Oh nice work D, cheers! :slight_smile:

Thx :slight_smile:

So it doesn’t automatically switch back to your normal weapon after you have thrown your grenade?

Lovely, if that would work with buffs and revives as a tap it’d be ace.
I guess I could make a toggle macro on mouse3 for ‘use’, that’d save me having to hold it down all the time. Hmmz, ideas ideas.

Thanks anyway, have some more rep :slight_smile:

edit: I can just chuck this in my autoexec right?

edit2: Razer software won’t let me make toggles unfortunately. Can’t really figure out how Microsofts macro thing works, that might be able to do it though. I don’t think the game can do it either right? Or is there script syntax available to make a buttonpress a toggle?

Yeah in the autoexec is fine.

Is there anyway to eliminate the pause? It’s really annoying, especially if you are in the heat of battle and/or sprinting.

Someone else mentioned that QL suffered the same issue during the beta when rewriting a bind, I’m guessing it was fixed, so that would suggest it would require the devs to fix it.

I used similar binds in ETQW and they never fixed the delay either :slight_smile:

Terrible work, DA.

Edit: I mean good.

Ya was going to mention that, but Singh beat me to it.
For the devs: Rebinding buttons cancels any button you have pressed at the time. IE when I’m walking forward (w) and then hit DAUK’s script to arm my grenade, I stop moving forward and have to press w again.

i just bound grenade to middle mouse and the objective wheel to alt.
unfortunately i already had the habit of looking at the wheel after respawn/ match start,
so after the change i often stood there at spawn with a cooking grenade in my hand wondering if on this server ff was on or off.
and damn i was flamed for it… cant’t blame them though.

I had an instance last night when I was stuck in grenade mode and couldn’t swap back, prompting me to have to manually bind shoot to mouse 1 again, unfortunately I’ve been unable to replicate the problem.

Shame about the pause issue also.
