Very Confused

[WhizzIK]

Hi there I'm trying to understand about context binding in etqw I've posted in a few places but I fear I am explaining what I want to know wrong so ill paste in here what i have done and try to explain

// =====================================
// CLASS BINDS
// =====================================
//STROGG
bind "F11" "clientTeam strogg; ClientClass Medic 1; exec Medic.cfg; addchatline '^3MEDIC CFG LOADED'"
//GDF
bind "F11" "clientTeam gdf; ClientClass Medic 1; exec Medic.cfg; addchatline '^3MEDIC CFG LOADED'" "RIGHTSHIFT"

this is the config i use which relates to all the medic coms
//Medic.cfg
bind "KP_LEFTARROW" "clientquickchat quickchat/self/imtechnician" "" "default"
bind "KP_5" "clientquickchat quickchat/responses/acknowledged" "" "default"
bind "KP_RIGHTARROW" "clientquickchat botchat/generic/technicianenroute" "" "default"
bind "KP_UPARROW" "clientquickchat quickchat/responses/outofrange" "" "default"
bind "KP_SLASH" "clientquickchat quickchat/vehicles/holdvehicle" "" "default"

I have only added 1 class for obvios reasons
the only way i can get what i want to work for each class is to have the above text is in my autoexec.cfg, with a corresponding config for everything i use related to that class ie class spam objective spam ect
The good thing is i like to keep everything on specific keys for instance i like to use KP_RIGHTARROW to spam whatever class i am i also use HOME DELTE END PGUP PGDN for weapons tools for each class i understand how i can use specific weapons and tool binds on certain keys for each class but i cant get my bloody head around the communications side of things
any help would be greatly appreciated

one thing you might want to do is break up yer configs based on strogg/gdf. i start with:
bind "KP_HOME" "clientTeam strogg; addchatline '^3*^4Strogg^3* ^7Side'; exec strogg.cfg" "" "default"
bind "KP_UPARROW" "clientTeam spectator; addchatline '^3*^4Spectator^3*'; set ccw $nccw; exec noclass.cfg" "" "default"
bind "KP_PGUP" "clientTeam gdf; addchatline '^3*^4GDF^3* ^7Side'; exec gdf.cfg" "" "default"
then in the strogg/gdf configs u can setup the chat msgs per class. the noclass config just unbinds all the keys i use in strogg or gdf. and the ccw/nccw vars are for a spam msg for class/weapon.

so once yer in strogg.cfg you can use strogg specific medic binds, compared to gdf specific medic binds in the gdf.cfg (using the same keys).

here's a portion of my autoexec which might help you, it shows and example of using the same keys for similar functions (i.e. calling out what class you are).

//GDF CLASS BINDS
bind "MOUSE4" "useweapon weapon_tool1" "" "engineer" //pliers
bind "MOUSE3" "useweapon weapon_item1" "" "engineer" //mines
bind "KP_HOME" "clientQuickChat quickchat/self/imengineer" "" "engineer"
bind "KP_UPARROW" "clientQuickChat quickchat/self/deploying/apt" "" "engineer"
bind "KP_5" "clientQuickChat quickchat/self/deploying/avt" "" "engineer"
bind "KP_DOWNARROW" "clientQuickChat quickchat/self/deploying/ait" "" "engineer"
bind "KP_INS" "clientQuickChat quickchat/self/imengineer; sayteam Repairing vehicle, do not run me over!!" "" "engineer"
bind "KP_DEL" "clientQuickChat quickchat/self/items/disarmingmines; sayteam Stand back!!" "" "engineer"

bind "MOUSE4" "useweapon weapon_item2" "" "fieldops" //air strike marker
bind "MOUSE3" "useweapon weapon_item1" "" "fieldops" //ammo packs
bind "KP_HOME" "clientQuickChat quickchat/self/imfieldops" "" "fieldops"
bind "KP_UPARROW" "clientQuickChat quickchat/self/deploying/artillery" "" "fieldops"

So am i right in thinking the vsays are class specific ie if i add this line to my autoexec
bind "KP_5" "clientquickchat quickchat/responses/acknowledged" "" "default"
(the above bound vsay will be used for every class i use due to "default" .. but the 1 below would only be used if my class were fieldops

bind "KP_5" "clientquickchat quickchat/responses/acknowledged" "" "fieldops"
i hope i got this right now god its makin my brain ache

Yes "default" is all

This bind says hi regardless of your team or class.

bind "f8" "clientquickchat quickchat/global/hi" "" "default" // says hi/greetings

"fieldops" would be when you are playing the fieldops class.

bind "f8" "clientquickchat quickchat/global/hi" "" "fieldops" // says hi/greetings but only if you are a gdf fieldops not an oppressor

unless.. you changed the context name

seta g_class_context_fieldops "artyparty"

bind "f8" "clientquickchat quickchat/global/hi" "" "artyparty" // says hi if you are an artyparty kind of guy.
