How to engineer?

Fun and useless fact: you can use an uncharged rail to get on top of your gun. You can also use uncharged rails to bhop backwards faster, similar to the pyro flamethrower.

You can also jump on top of a lvl 1 and 2 gun using the jump, jump crouch thing. Not sure about lvl 3, if the hit box gets taller or not.

You can duck-jump trick onto any level of SG. You can also trimp off your dispenser (combined with an emp/rail if needed) to get up to higher ledges. Also there are plenty of ledges that you can do that duck trick on.

exec userconfig.cfg

// Place any global binds/aliases/scripts into the userconfig.cfg file and specifics into each <classname>.cfg
// IMPORTANT: The userconfig.cfg file DOES NOT auto-execute.
// It can only be executed in console with "exec userconfig.cfg" or by the <classname>.cfg files using that command as above.
// If you are reading this line, then just leave this file in the cfg folder and the userconfig.cfg file will work fine.

dispensers are really more of a hazard than helpful. only certain maps like ameliorate are they actually useful for collecting cells. I totally disagree with building a dispenser first. Gun is the priority. Build atleast a level 2 before you start messing with dispensers. Detting dispensers is fun though. lol

EDIT: Also always charge a rail when you're running around trying to grab bags. you can use it for the 40 cells or you can shoot it and hope for LOLOLS

also, my engy config is default except mwheeldown for det dispenser. the binds arent necessary

Dispenser is good on maps where it can take some time for the offence to get to the FR, where bags aren't that common/need to be shared by the demo, or when you have competent front line D.

Maps like schtop or destroy are good, and destroy has alot of nice dispenser hiding spots in the FR like on the platform at the top of the ladder.

the only time for a dispenser is if your front line is really holding it down. other than that worry about your gun.
