I hope i posted in the right place... in one of the online arenas, there is a weapon, a grappling hook. A couple of _bleep_ found out how to use it and their using it to their advantage. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to use it.

in the console type: /bind x weapon10.

x can be whatever key you need it to be.

Is that what you were after?

(again X being whatever you want)

To use the grapple hook, first it must be enabled on the server and you must bind a key or button to use it. In baseq3 the command would be as follows: "/bind x weapon 10". In OSP it would be "/bind x +button5". A good idea is to put this in your config: /bind x "weapon 10; +button5" that way, either way you'll have it set. Just replace the "x" with any key or button of your choice.

Of course. :) It should be: bind x "weapon 10". No +, but a space between the weapon command and the weapon number. Just try selecting the other weapons in the console (/weapon 5 for instance).

+button5 is to fire the 'off-hand' grappling hook btw. In mods that have that, you can keep holding a weapon and use the grapple at the same time. In baseq3, the g.h. is the 10th weapon that you just fire with your left mouse button.

To combine both commands enter this in the console: /bind x "weapon 10;+button5". That's not really practical though. I always use the right mouse button for the off-hand grapple in Ufreeze (bind mouse3 +button5).
