Hey, I need some help with my script, can't quite figure out what's wrong.
Basicly what it does is, i press a button and then one of two-four mouse buttons to select an upgrade, would be great if i could get this to work.

well anyway heres the marine.cfg

CODE

bind "v" "+upgrade1"
bind "b" "+upgrade2"
bind "n" "+upgrade3"
bind "t" "+upgrade4"
bind "m" "+upgrade5"
bind "mouse3" "+upgrade5"

any help would be appreciated, have a feeling i mucked something up with the +'s and -'s

EDIT:sry for the huge post too

OK, the code can be imagined to be a tree, where all the possible branches resemble other branches, so let's just examine one of those branches:

QUOTE (Cut down code @ moved into more logical order)

bind "v" "+upgrade1"
...
alias "+upgrade1" "unbind mouse4;unbind mouse5;bind mouse4 Resupply;bind mouse5 Shotgun"

alias "-upgrade1" "unbind mouse4;unbind mouse5;bind mouse4 Xenoform;bind mouse5 Follow me"

alias "Resupply" "impulse 31; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write :: Resupply Selected ::; dev0"

alias "Shotgun" "impulse 64; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write :: Shotgun Selected ::; dev0"
..

You press AND HOLD V, upgrade1 up is called
Mouse 4 is rebound to "resupply", and mouse5 to "shotgun"
At this point you must press mouse4 or mouse5 BEFORE YOU RELEASE V in order to select these aliases.

We'll come back to that.
You could now release V, and mouse4 becomes "Xenoform" and mouse 5 "follow me"

Points to notice so far:

"Xenoform" is not aliased. Presumeably it's aliased elsewhere or you've been doing too much copying+pasting.
"follow me" contains a space. :S Avoid! There's a chance mouse5 will be bound to simply "follow". In my experience, sometimes it happens, sometimes it does not.
"Follow me" is not aliased either!

Pressing mouse4 before releasing V:
"Resuply"

QUOTE

alias "Resupply" "impulse 31; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write :: Resupply Selected ::; dev0"

Gack.
For the purposes of debugging, can't we change this to:
alias "Resupply" "impulse 31;developer 1;echo Resupply_Selected;developer 0"

Pressing mouse5 before releasing V
Shotgun

QUOTE

impulse 64; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write :: Shotgun Selected ::; dev0"

As above. Alter to:
alias "Shotgun" "impulse 64;developer 1;echo Shotgun_Selected;developer 0"

Pressing mouse4 after releasing V
Xenoform is triggered, but there is no code for it.

Pressing mouse5 after releasing V
"Follow me" is triggered, but there is no code for it and the space in its alias name may cause problems.
---

Whew.
Good luck, take it step by step, and stop using spaces in aliases!

Thanks for the help

, follow me etc were already aliased but ill simplify the names of the alias' to get rid of spaces... let you know how it goes

EDIT: Oh yeah, afaik echo doesnt work since steam...

yes, it should, but it only shows in the console, and its useless there...

you dont check the console when you want statusmessages like that

so you have to use the motd-trick

I'd like a marine-upgrade scripts that get the following (bound to one button).

Resupply
Weapons 1
Shotgun
Armour 1
Armour 2
Jp
Dmg 2

coris:

bind <key> "impulse 31; wait; impulse 23; wait; impulse 64; wait; impulse 20; wait; impulse 21; wait; impulse 39; wait; impulse 24"

Only issue is that if you have one too few levels to get a jetpack with that sequence, you'll get weapons 2 instead.

I can live with that.

Thanks a lot civ!

CODE

alias resup "impulse 31; alias rineUps weap1; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write Resupply; dev0"
alias weap1 "impulse 23; alias rineUps shirtgun; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write Weapons 1; dev0"
alias shirtgun "impulse 64; alias rineUps arm1; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write Shotgun; dev0"
alias arm1 "impulse 20; alias rineUps arm2; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write Armour 1; dev0"
alias arm2 "impulse 21; alias rineUps jp; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write Armour 2; dev0"
alias jp "impulse 39; alias rineUps weap2"; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write Jetpack; dev0
alias weap2 "impulse 24; alias rineUps done; dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write Weapons 2; dev0"
alias done "dev1; motdfile echo.txt; motd_write Upgrades finished; dev0"
alias reset "alias rineUps resup"
reset
bind "key" "rineUps"
bind "key" "reset"

Try that, would work better imo. Change the first bind to the upgrade key, change the second to a key that will reset it, incase you order your jp with only 1 point, for example. Note that it will reset to resup, so you'll have to cycle through again.

That's because they're all the exact same impulse.
