lastinv key switching to different default weapons?

KubeDawg · 10-18-2010, 04:55 PM

So I rarely ever use my number keys to select my weapons. I always use the nextinv or previnv or lastinv buttons when switching weapons.

When I do this though, when I respawn, it sometimes defaults to a weapon I don't want when I use the lastinv key.

So for instance, if I start out respawning with my super shotgun as engineer, and hit my lastinv key, it switches to my railgun by default. I'd like it to switch to my wrench instead by default. Is there any way to make this happen? I know there's a way to change the weapon you start with, but is this possible as well for your secondary?

FF needs an option to save the last used weapon between lives, but it probably won't happen simply because that option is available in Team Fortress 2.

You could write a script.

could you explain to me how this works? like if you die with shotgun out, you respawn with shotgun out? (and q/s between whatever else) if it's handy I dont see why not adding it. wait, I dont 'listen to the community (aka bridget)'!

Basically what it needs to do is every time you spawn, it saves a specific main and secondary slot weapon. So if your secondary is your spanner, and main gun is the shotty and you respawn, it should keep the same configuration so when i use my lastinv key, it switches from my main(shotty) to my secondary(spanner).

echo ENGINEER CFG LOADED
alias mysecondary "slot1; bind q myprimary"
alias myprimary "slot3; bind q mysecondary"
bind q "mysecondary"

Sorry to bring up such an old thread, but this is still an issue for me.

The script you have there only binds the Q key to bring up the weapon screen. I'm talking about the lastinv key.

I use these buttons to change weapons in game:
[ - Next
] - Previous
MWHEELUP/DOWN - Lastinv

I don't use any of the number keys. When I spawn and immediately hit the MWHEELDOWN button to switch to whatever the default weapon is as engineer, and that default weapon is the railgun. That's because I've setup my SShotty as the weapon I use when I respawn.

Is there a way I can make the lastinv change to my Wrench instead of my Railgun every time I spawn?
