Hover/Fly Binds

Posted

Anyone know of a hover/fly bind.
I found one on the US forums but I couldn't figure out how to apply it.

Clicky!

On this post its the 4th post down. By Meraxes
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

What are you trying to do?

Simplest would be:

/bind <key> "powexecname hover$$powexecname fly"

First press switches on fly 2nd press swaps to hover, and back again on next press. I combine it with:

/bind <key> "powexectoggleoff hover$$powexectoggleoff fly"

Which switches both off. You could add a powexectoggleon sprint, to the end of the above too, but I tend not to.

here's a bind i use now on pretty much all my fly chars.


/bind button5 "powexec_name Hover$$powexec_toggleon toggle X$$...$$powexec_toggleon Toggle 1"

That bind will toggle on as many toggles you like (Sapphic Neko has 6 on one button) starting with the toggle you put in last. Once all toggles are on, the button will toggle on or off hover.

i then bind fly to button4 on mouse and thus have easy reach to travel. This way i don't need a specific button to kill toggles.

Just my personal preference.

Also, don't forget your 4 Fly Poses for fun!

(Something like: /bind <key> "e flypose1")

The nice people around here might have a better idea, but you get the picture - the poses are fun and although they don't actually make you fly any faster, sometimes it can look as though you are

This is exactly what I do on all of my characters, regardless of their travel power (if not a Hover/Fly switch then I'll make the bind switch CJ/SJ, or toggle on/off Superspeed) - it is bound to the F key on all of my characters (except my mastermind, who is a teleporter, and has pet commands bound to F and other nearby keys), which makes re-toggling and switching between travel/combat really fast, easy and instinctive.

/bind numpad8 Say “Lets Zoom!$$e flypose1$$e flypose2$$e flypose3$$e flypose4$$powexec_toggleON fly$$autorun 1”

Is the fly pose one I use.

As a further aside, this is useful for easy TPing (left shift and left mouse button to use TP):

/bind lshift+lbutton "powexec_name Teleport"

You can try this:

/macro Fly "$$e flypose4$$e flypose3$$e flypose2$$e flypose1$$autorun 1$$powexectoggleON Fly"

It will create a new button for you, and each time you press it, your toon will change from a flying pose to another one.

For Peacebringers, this macro ends with "Energy Flight" instead of "Fly".

I hope it's useful for you.
