Some commands are in the other thread (essential tfc settings).

Spy

cl_forwardspeed x - adjusts speed when disguising as a slower class
cl_sidespeed x
cl_backspeed x

Text comms

Voice comm should be used if possible, but if you prefer text comm, here are some scripts. Mind that some use the scr_connectmsg command to display a menu, this doesn't work any more except in slow software mode. (Meaning the menu is invisible, but you can still navigate through it blindly if you memorise the keys.)

Another note, for scripts using the echo command you need to enable developer mode (developer 1 in console). The text will appear at the top left corner.

Auto reload

alias +f "+forward;+reload"
alias -f "-forward;-reload"
alias +b "+back;+reload"
alias -b "-back;-reload"
alias +l "+moveleft;+reload"
alias -l "-moveleft;-reload"
alias +r "+moveright;+reload"
alias -r "-moveright;-reload"

Bind +f, +b, +l and +r.

Zoom

alias zoom zoom_in
alias zoom_in "fov 20;alias zoom zoom_out"
alias zoom_out "fov 0;alias zoom zoom_in"
alias +zoom "fov 20"
alias -zoom "fov 0"

Bind zoom for a toggle, bind +zoom for hold.

Duck jump

alias +dj "+duck;+jump"
alias -dj "-duck;-jump"

Bind +dj.

Some useful console commands

bind "x" "exec name.cfg" - Change your name to default.
In name.cfg put: name "your name here even with spaces (hooray)"
bind "x" "ForceCloseCommandMenu" - Useful for closing the vgui menu without making a selection.
bind "x" "stopsound" - Resolves sound issues e.g. on shutdown2, when you can't hear the grenade timer any more.
bind "x" "say health %h, armour %a" - Health/armour.
bind "x" "say ::: HOWDY %i :::" - Last person under your crosshair.
bind "x" "kill" - suicide
bind "x" "snapshot" - screenshot in .bmp format
room_type 0 ; room_off 1 - remove echo (e.g. openfire)

That Spy speed one has got to be bordering on a hack... It's one of the few ways you can spot a spy on some servers. Not sure I like that one!

i'll see your spy, and raise you my engineer!!

1) weaponswitch shotgun to spanner and back :

alias quick1 "tf_weapon_spanner;wait;alias quickweapon quick2"
alias quick2 "tf_weapon_supershotgun;wait;alias quickweapon quick1"
alias quickweapon quick1
bind key quickweapon

2) bunnyhop help/timer :

bind mwheelup "+bhop"
alias +bhop "+jump;wait;-jump;wait;+jump;wait;-jump;wait;+jump;wait;-jump;wait;+jump;wait;-jump;wait;+jump"
alias -bhop "-jump"

3) quick build dispenser (+detonate) :

alias +dispenser "detdispenser; build 1; say_team"
alias -dispenser "build 3"
bind key "+dispenser"

4) quick build sentrygun :

alias +sentry "detsentry; build 2; say_team"
alias -sentry "build 3"
bind key "+sentry"

5) rotate sentrygun 180 and 90 (or is it 45?) degrees :

bind key "rotatesentry180"
bind key "rotatesentry"

6) quick build teleports (hold to build) :

alias +tele_ent "detentryteleporter; build 4; say_team"
alias -tele_ent "build 3"
alias +tele_exit "detexitteleporter; build 5; say_team"
alias -tele_exit "build 3"
bind key "+tele_ent"
bind key "+tele_exit"

where i added the word "key" you put in your own favored bind/key (dont add "")
only 1 i didnt change my binds to the word "key" is for the bhop script, use mousewheel for it is the easiest way to do it.

these build scripts bypass the menu, and only that.
each of those scripts do have a nice added bonus you might say, the bind/key you use to build any of it, is also used to detonate the buildable.
per example, i got dispenser build under mouse3, wich is the same key to detonate it, its why some people do not dare to get near my dispensers

and, have you ever had 1 of those pescy scouts or medics, run circles around your sg, wile shooting nails at it?
as a last resort, you now can detonate the thing right in his face ;) (same key/bind)

teleports dont really hurt when blown up..

the rotate options are important, some use the 180 only, i suggest using the 90 (45?) as well, to finetune the sentry's aim

the weaponswitch isnt really needed, but just a handy tool non the less.

add these to your engineer.cfg (not to config.cfg)

dont have a engineer.cfg?
np get notepad, and add these scripts to that, then save as engineer.cfg
it will automaticly be recognized by HL as a cfg file

Slow morning so i figured id sign up n add a few (it might be adviseable to remmber your current settings as ive only tested these on my PC):

Nice first post - thanks!

The free web host I used broke some months ago, replaced the text comms in 1st post with a backup.
