MM Bind Question

Is there a way to set up a one key bind to toggle between targeting pets? So, for example, if I press the key it would toggle the first tier 1 pet, hit it again and it switches to the second tier 1 pet, and hit it once more and it targets the third tier 1 pet.

Thanks,
TW

I highly recommend using the Sandolphan MM keybinds found here. They give you awesome control that are easy to use. You can give commands to all your pets, or to specific tiers. You can change the stance (Aggressive, Defensive, Passive) for all at once or by tier. These binds also include Attack my target, Follow me, Goto (brings up target recticle) this spot.

They look complicated at first, but don't be intimidated. Once you cut and paste the commands into your chat box, its just a small matter of familiarizing yourself with the keys to press for the effect you want. And it does not take long to get so used to them that you are able to issue your commands like its second nature.

Hope this helps. Good luck!

To cycle through pets you'd need a set of toggle binds, each of which loads the next in a series of text files that rebinds the key to the next pet. It could be more hassle than you want, and you might prefer to just set up six keys to target the pets directly. Here are instructions though for pet-selecting toggle binds:

1. Make six text files like so (change KEY and the file locations to whatever you want):

c:\covbinds\Petselect0.txt

Quote:
$$petselect 0$$bind KEY bindloadfile c:\covbinds\Petselect1.txt
c:\covbinds\Petselect1.txt
Quote:
$$petselect 1$$bind KEY bindloadfile c:\covbinds\Petselect2.txt
c:\covbinds\Petselect2.txt
Quote:
$$petselect 2$$bind KEY bindloadfile c:\covbinds\Petselect3.txt
c:\covbinds\Petselect3.txt
Quote:
$$petselect 3$$bind KEY bindloadfile c:\covbinds\Petselect4.txt
c:\covbinds\Petselect4.txt
Quote:
$$petselect 4$$bind KEY bindloadfile c:\covbinds\Petselect5.txt
c:\covbinds\Petselect5.txt
Quote:
$$petselect 5$$bind KEY bindloadfile c:\covbinds\Petselect0.txt
2. Then bind KEY like this to start them:

/bind KEY "bindloadfile c:\covbinds\Petselect0.txt"


Now when you press KEY (whatever your bind key is), it will target the pet from the list and rebind the key to target the next pet on the list the next time you press it.

Thank you very much for the help! I tried something like that but did not have it exactly correct.

Thanks again,

I'm a little confused with this. How EXACTLY do I implement this?

The contents of each of the six text files are one line each (ie the line that is in each quote box in my original post).
The names of the text files are in the c:\ pathnames before each quote (Petselect0.txt, Petselect1.txt, etc).
They are set up to work in the directory c:\covbinds; if that is not your bind directory, you'll have to edit them accordingly.

Once the text files are made correctly and in place, just enter the game and issue a starter bind as listed in step 2.

They should then cycle through targeting each pet accordingly.

BTW you can use the same files on any Mastermind you make by just issuing the starter bind while playing that Mastermind.
