I've made a really creepy, giant, angry, pink bunny man and I want him to move a particular way. Can someone help me tune a bind so that I have a key that will allow me to walk forward while doing very small hops? I can get a small hop from "+up$$ -up" but I would like the hops to go on continuously while I am moving forward. Any thoughts?

Since i finally was able to figure it out I thought I'd share for those who'd be interested, my auto-sprint bind. using the bind_load_file command you can set this string to give the commands to turn on sprint any time you use the keyboard to move your character, and each time you use a power on your tray it will deactivate sprint. Also, obviously feel free to simply replace the word sprint with prestige power rush or super speed or any other travel power. Thanks to those who helped out while I was figuring this out, and once again, this is the coolest thread on the entire CoH forum.

Try this:

W "+down$$-down$$+forward$$powexec_name Sprint"

Or if you want more stability and don't mind a little more complexity, try this:

SPRINTON.TXT

W "+down$$-down$$powexec_toggleon Sprint$$+forward$$bind_load_file c:\<bindpath>\SPRINTOFF.TXT"


SPRINTOFF.TXT

W "+down$$-down$$powexec_toggleoff Sprint$$bind_load_file c:\<bindpath>\SPRINTON.TXT"

Gave that sprinton/sprintoff one a try...it made me move forward and I couldn't stop, also it toggled sprint everytime I clicked 'W'.

About my attempt on 7 "powexec..etc..etc, I've tried with and without the quotes, and I've switched the order of the commands...it won't read it from a bind_load_file but it understands the command when I manually enter it...I'm very confused by this one.

Another confusion here:
if I type in /bind 7 "powexec_slot 7$$powexec_toggleoff sprint" then it works just fine, everytime I press '7' I use my move in slot 7 and turn off sprint if it is on.
However, when I type in a .txt file: 7 powexec_slot 7$$powexec_toggleoff sprint === then it won't recognize it....any help here?

thanks for the help. I've (at least for now) decided to just stick with hitting ALL of those buttons for fighting ALL by myself (...i'm lazy).

Another question comes to mind though...
I know you can set a bind to use an insp...and I know you can set a bind to target your pets if your a mastermind...but can you make a bind that will use an insp on a pet? Like how we use F1-F5, could you set F6-F10 for pet insp buttons or something like that? Just curious because I don't know the bind commands for using insp's.

Also, a small one here, I've set up the bind:
/bind w "+forward$$powexec_name sprint" <--or a prestige power type of sprint.
This works well except that, sometimes because of qued attacks or something, I begin to deactivate sprint when I hit 'w' and reactivate when I release. I was wondering if there was a more specific way to type the bind that will clarify to powexec_toggleon when i hit w and powexec_toggleoff when I release?

New problem (I tried to skim through the 90+ pages and didn't see this one yet)...

I'm setting up my brute to use all of his attacks with only a single key. I have it working to an extent, but he can only go from one attack to the next in a sequence; which is annoying since some attacks come back quicker than others. what I have is a few .txt files with the classic " $$" beginning and bind_load_file at the end. I was wondering if there was a way in each .txt file I could tell it to execute many attacks (knowing it would only actually do one) but prioritize which attack it tries first and then just make each .txt have them in a different order? e.g.:

1 " $$powexec_name smite$$bind_load_file c:\(shadow maul file)"
-----
1 " $$powexec_name shadow maul$$bind_load_file c:\(sandofmu file)"
-----
1 " $$powexec_name sands of mu$$bind_load_file c:\(smite file)
====
now, can I simply put " $$powexec_name smite$$powexec_name sands of mu$$powexec_name shadow maul" in each of the 3 files but change the order? If that won't do it, does anyone know a way it will?

Side Note: This is probably the most useful thread in all of the CoH Forum.
