Walk Talk / Patrol Path

Corinth and I were talking today and an interesting idea came up.

We don't always stop to talk... so how come we have to in game?

I suggest a single command that is like a 'Auto-Run' button. Once pressed you move forward at a walking pace until another action is triggered (walk button, any direction, jump, or crouch).

Another idea was a patrol idea.

This would be a command that sets a personal start spot, then you activate it again for a stop spot. Then your character automatically begins moving between the two spots (good for lectures).

As previously indicated, I support this, if it is deemed possible.

and since the day I came to the JK community did I want to have the RPMod... I was told that I was crazy and that it is was impossible... Now it is..
This feature, which we all longed for, am sure, could be possible, somehow. Perhaps not now, but one day.. it'll be possible!

I look forward the new features that will make this mod the perfect mod... one mod, to rule them all!! :shock: erm... wrong movies...

Actually, there is a bind you can setup to toggle walk on and off. If you give me some time to research it and look it up I'm sure I can find it. No need to create a modifcation.

+forward in the console moved you forward constantly. However, if you bind this, it does not.

And as soon as you Chat, your character will stop.

/bind = toggle cl_run

That was the command I was thinking of. However, I realized upon re-reading Ctathos post, that he was thinking of something completely different. No idea how to do that. Sorry.

Axem Keigoku wrote:[+Forward] would work, unless you chat; which is what Larkit was hinting toward. Being able to chat while moving is the suggestion he makes here. While it is something I'd appreciate, it was discussed before and put aside due to technical difficulties.

Neat, but not possible for the now.

Just quoting Axem from his post in the thread I made.

And I fully support this idea, and would love to see it implemented.

Every time I play I wish I could do this, because I frequently talk in situations where I'm traveling through the temple with someone. Stopping every 30 seconds makes everything take far to long, and can be annoying when you have to stop and wait. It also makes the trip take much much longer than it should. If you guys can put together an auto-walk button, I'll love you forever.

Auto-move will be coming with RPMod 0.4.0. See the original thread by Larkit.

As for the patrol path idea, I think it's a bit too complicated. And ... are you so lazy? :P

I can't type and change directions at the same time...

Yes you can. Just bump your mouse in the desired direction.

That doesn't work, typically the room is so small I'd have to constantly turn, no time to type then.

If the room is so small, don't walk when you type. We're talking large areas, like the Main Floor elevator to the door, or outside in the gardens.
