TOPIC: Bind Guide

• What is a "Bind"
A bind is a command assigned to a button on your mouse/keyboard.
It basically Binds a command to a button. This can be benefited from in many ways.

• Saving your Binds
First off, let's see how to save these binds, and then afterwards how to make them.
A clean and good way to do so is to go into your Garry's Mod files
(Steam library>>Garry's Mod>>Properties>>Local Files>>Browse Local Files) and go into "garrysmod" and then "cfg".

now create a txt file and name it binds.cfg (or whatever you want).

Note: This will only work if you have file extensions enabled. If you still end up with a text file just go to File>>Save As

and then just change everything to theese settings (Change .txt at the end to .cfg)

And click Save.
Now if you have a file called autoexec.cfg in your cfg folder then we are good. If you don't then create one using the stuff above. (same as binds.cfg just name it autoexec.cfg)
Now onto if you have it!
Open it with Notepad (or Notepad++ if you have it) and write "exec binds.cfg" into a new line and save it!


• Creating the binds themselves

Alrighty now let's start creating binds!
Im just going to teach you how to make basic binds you will have to get creative.

Alright, Let's get clear with a useful command!

alias - Usage " alias "commandname" "Command" " - This basically makes a command. So for eg:. you do alias "ayylmao" "zarp_equipitem gencorp juggernaut suit;kill" then if you type ayylmao in console it will execute thoose commands. Now you can use this like +forward or +attack. So like
This will make it so if you bind +ayylmao to for eg i it will equip the juggernaut suit as long as you are holding i.
Note: You will have to use zarp_unequipitem or whatever it is in case if its not a suit or just "zarp holster" and thats without an underline (holster can be replaced with drop.)
alright! lets make an example bind now.

Let's analyze this bind.
First we bind "i" to the alias "jugmini20"
Then we define jugmini20 to equip a juggernaut suit and then a minigun 2.0 and then to bind "i" to "jugmini20alt"
"jugmini20alt" Just holsters everything but at the end it rebinds "i" to the original bind. (jugmini20) and so this creates a loop where it can be used indefinitely.

• Some more info


";" in a bind just makes it a new command. Like command1;command2 and also you will have to put all this into the binds.cfg and save it!
This will make it so you don't lose your binds

You can find a weapon's "id" by typing zarp_equipitem in console then a space and then start typing the items name. It will come up as a suggestion where you are typing.


• Some last words
Welp thats it for now, leave any suggestions on how to improve this in the commands section and hope this helped some people
