I want some scripts but I have no clue what am doing.

Basically I have seen some people have auto messages and I would like to have auto messages too. For example when I call for a medic I would like to set my own message to display in team chat along with my location. Another example I would like to have would be able to bind a key to say something on team chat. Oh and the other one is when I press C to drop the flag it will display a message along with my current location. So if anyone could give me the basic structure for that it would be greatly appreciated.

I hate to say that a lot of that doesn't help me. So far I am thinking it would be something like:
bind "Z" saveme

But I don't know how to make its say something in teamchat, which would beside the saveme. But that still isn't quite what I want. I want it to send a message when Ichoose medic in the thign when i press Z (the one with armor and ammo) is that possible? Also where do I put them? In a autoexec.cfg?

bind z "saveme;say_team Heal me!! [%h Health - %a Armor]"

bind c "dropflagcommand;say_team Flag dropped at %l"

not sure what the cmd for dropflag is, but you should get the picture.

Thanks man I'll have to try them out. But where do I put them?
EDIT: Nevermind I thought I would try autoexec.cfg and it worked.

dropitems is the command...and you really need to add in %h / %a commands if you are going to use a flag toss bind. The health tells your team members weather or not your toss was successful.

What do you mean? I normally can't throw the flag in time so I just pres the bind when I die so they at least no where it is.

If your hp is negative in your flag comm bind, they know you didn't toss it, it just dropped where you died. If it's positive, you tossed successfully.
