I hope Im posting this in the right forum, but I cant remember how to tie emotes with key on the keyboard. Trying to figure out macrpos was to much of a headache for me. I know it's something like /bindkey F12 emote whistle but I cant remember how to tie a saying in with that.

Thanks!

For the scpeific bind you're looking for it would be...

/bind f12 "say Ambush coming!$$emote whistle"

Using "say' will allow the phrase to be seen in whatever channel you are currently in. Alternately you can use a specific channel bind like "local" or "team", but I prefer to use "say" personally.

Yes, but that can result in humorous mistells if you do a lot of switching windows. For something like a warning, I prefer to bind directly to the team channel, so the correct people get it the first time, rather than warning the Virtue Badge channel that we are about to get hit with an ambush.

While the Badge channel members may get a laugh out if it, my teammates would probably appreciate getting the warning in a timely manner. And no, I am not speaking from experience. Really.
