A minor suggestion for the voting keys/numbers

**Imisnew2** · 09-05-10, 12:55 AM

I'd test this if you could tell me how to change the numbers for the menu's ewok. I changed all the numbers from "10, 20, 30, 40" etc to "50, 60, 70, 80" but it still numbered them from 1-4.

what would be really cool is if we could figure a way to have the user use the key pad!

You can now if you bind your keypad to your weapon slots. lol

bind "kp_end" "slot1"
bind "kp_downarrow" "slot2"
bind "kp_pgdn" "slot3"
bind "kp_leftarrow" "slot4"
bind "kp_5" "slot5"
bind "kp_rightarrow" "slot6"
bind "kp_home" "slot7"
bind "kp_uparrow" "slot8"
bind "kp_pgup" "slot9"
bind "kp_ins" "slot10"

Problem is the number pad isn't bound to anything by default in source. (If I remember) So wouldn't people need to make their own binds?

Ya, That will allow you to vote with keypad, But it will also switch your weapons when not voting.

ya, theres gotta be a function that can be hooked. Or maybe, we can read user configs? Write binds to kb and restore?

Back in the mani days Valve allowed servers to re-write clients .cfgs and binds but that ability was removed since having that power gave the means to unbind all of a users keys so they needed to Ctrl-Alt-Del out of the game.

i think theres a client cvar for it, and we can have a ad rotating (or put it in the motd), that if you want to be able to vote via your keypad, you should enable ____ command.

edit, ya mani still supports executing commands on the servers behalf

hrmmm
