Bind a key

Post by **D'Artagnan** » Sat Oct 22, 2005 11:14 pm

Is there a way to bind a key to do vid_restat without having to type it into the console ?

By the way, is there a way to bind special message like in Q3, exemple;
bind F5 "say Thx"
bind F6 "Good Game"

ya I noticed that too, but I dont think the use of quotes like that ( "F5" ) is required.

also for binding a key for vid_restart.. probably a bad idea cuz you could accidently hit it when playing. the easist way to do is by console. just drop the console type vi, hit the tab key to autocomplete the word (vid_restart is the only vid_ command) and hit enter.

I dont think auto-complete is enabled in Q4

...I've tried a number of times and it doesnt do anything

It is, there is no need for a / in Q4 however.

Is there a way to bind a key to kill myself, on Q3 it was

bind (KEY) "kill"
