quick sabremode swaps

[nFlame]

what would the command be to switch from blue sabre mode to red sabre mode in 1 command?

[babywax]

Just use the saber switch command twice.

[nFlame]

that runs into a problem. i would need to go from yellow to blue then to red with 2 commands like, i need it to be specifically switching.

[razorace]

You can't without code changes.

[nFlame]

alright, is it possible to cycle backwards at least?

[razorace]

Nope.

[nFlame]

thx for your help. i was trying to makea script for jk2. im new to scripting in jk2, how would aliases work with jk2? as in what file would they have to be placed in?

[razorace]

You're welcome.

 

Sorry, but I don't know anything about scripting. Use google to find out.

[nFlame]

tried, the only results i get are for mapping and the likes

[UDM]

/bind <key> <command>

 

(dont include the <> when typing in console)

I haven't scripted in a while... but it is very doable, especially since it always goes back to blue stance, what you do is replace the normal saber mode switch with a new alias, and keep track of the stances, like so:

alias cycle "saberAttackCycle;"

alias cycleT "cycle; cycle;"

 

 

alias saberCycle "saberSwitchYellow;"

 

alias saberSwitchBlue "switchBlue"

alias saberSwitchYellow "switchYellow"

alias saberSwitchRed "switchRed"

 

alias switchBlue "switchBlueO; alias saberCycle saberSwitchYellow;"

alias switchBlueO "cycle; alias switchBlue switchBlueT;"

alias switchBlueT "cycleT; alias switchBlue switchBlueThree; alias switchYellow switchYellowO; alias switchRed switchRedT;"

alias switchBlueThree ""

 

alias switchYellow "switchYellowO; alias saberCycle saberSwitchRed;"

alias switchYellowO "cycle; alias switchYellow switchYellowT; alias switchBlue switchBlueT; alias switchRed switchRedO;"

alias switchYellowT "cycleT; alias switchYellow switchYellowThree; alias switchBlue switchBlueT; alias switchRed switchRedO;"

alias switchYellowThree ""

 

alias switchRed "switchRedO; alias saberCycle saberSwitchBlue;"

alias switchRedO "cycle; alias switchRed switchRedT; alias switchBlue switchBlueO; alias switchYellow switchYellowT;"

alias switchRedT "cycleT; alias switchRed switchRedThree; alias switchBlue switchBlueO; alias switchYellow switchYellowT;"

alias switchRedThree ""

 

This way saberSwitchBlue/Red/Yellow will switch to each corresponding color. Haven't tested it, never even really scripted much for JK2 but it should work. Also, just updated it because I forgot, saberCycle will cycle between saber styles just like the normal saberAttackCycle would.

[razorace]

That probably won't work. I think you have to pause briefly inbetween saber stance changes.

[babywax]

Not in my experience, but if you have to you can add some waits in, probably about 3 but maybe more depending on your machine.

TADA! Unknown command: alias

Don't think it's possible without aliases sorry.

[Wudan]

If I recall, alias is for the original Quake.

 

Try using "set" but I'm not certain if that'll work. I just used BIND.
