This post discusses the various keybinds that most people don't know about, don't know how to set, and don't know how to use.
NextPrimaryFireMode: Certain Weapons of Power have fire mode modifier power ups that add additional firing modes. For example, the rocket launcher has the seeker fire mode, Cluster Fire Mode, Spread Fire Mode, Flare Fire Mode. The bio and link have the spread fire and web mode. The link also has the Darmar Fire Mode. To switch between the normal fire mode and the power up fire mode, you need to bind a key to NextPrimaryFireMode. The shock rifle has the Inferno Fire Mode, the Shock Spread fire mode, and the Turbo Lazer fire mode.
NextAlternateFireMode: This is similar to NextPrimaryFireMode, only this toggles the firing mode of your alternate fire.
ToggleWeaponInfo: This key bind will cause a popup to appear where the vote menu does. This popup will list all of the power ups applied to the current weapon as well as their current level.This is what it looks like:
UnloadWeapon: This key bind is a shortcut for clearing your weapon. The end result is that your current weapon will have all of its power ups removed and placed back into your inventory :D .
ShowItemDescriptions: This key bind will cause a description to pop up and tell you about the current powerup you have selected. This is what it looks like:
Additionally, here are some RPG bindings you may be interested in:
ActivateItem: This activates your current inventory item. IE: your artifacts and power ups.
NextItem: This moves to the next item in your inventory.
PrevItem: This moves to the previous item in your inventory.
tossartifact: This tosses your current artifact\powerup on the ground.
Other Bindings:
teamsay %w: %w is a substitution that will display your current weapon when using teamsay.
teamsay %i: %i will say the current powerup that you are looking at in your inventory.
teamsay %R: This will tell a person how many of an item you have in your inventory. so for example teamsay Does Anyone Need A %i? I have %R Of Them. And that will say Does Anyone Need A infinity Powerup? I have 5 of them.
Binding:
To bind these you need to use the following command:
set input <key> <binding>
Here, key is the key you want to bind to and binding is what you want the key to do. For example:
set input x ToggleWeaponInfo
will allow me to display WoP weapon information when I press x.
