Run/Walk Toggle Indicator

[Aslyn Denethorn]

Evening,

So since most of us tend to use a single bind for run/walk, would it be possible to create a HUD indicator to show which one is currently active at the time? If you're anything like me, you're probably always switching between the two when you're stationary (yeah, probably because I use shift as the toggle, and you need that and tilde for the console), and as such, the number of times I've started moving with a run instead of the more dignified walk...

So, is this one possible?

I have CTRL bound to cl_run 0 and ALT bound to cl_run 1, to avoid confusion.

Yet there are two possibilities to active RUN/WALK mode:

/bind key cl_run !
or
/bind key "toggle cl_run" (with the quotes)

Then.. the key for run/walk will toggle the different action:

Example: Running mode - Key will toggle to Walk
Walking mode - Key will toggle to Run

But still lack on a indicator for the mode activate.. that would be nice if we get something on that. Soh hear us! =D

vstr with echo.

I'd be interested in this, but I don't really use toggles, I just use shift for walking most of the time.

This doesn't need to be implemented in RPMod. Like Ctathos said,

vstr with echo.

.. you can do it with a script, such as the following one (untested, but it should work):

Code: Select all

set do_run "set cl_run 1;set run_msg echo Running mode;vstr run_msg;set key_run do_walk"
set do_walk "set cl_run 0;set run_msg echo Walking mode;vstr run_msg;set key_run do_run"

// Default mode
set key_run do_walk
vstr key_run

// Key bindings
bind CTRL vstr key_run
bind Z vstr run_msg

Exec it once, then use the keys. The CTRL key would be used to toggle between Running and Walking mode and would display the new mode. The Z key would only display the current status in the upper left corner of the screen.

Hmm...that might work. Thanks.
