[Bpo]

i dont have any con messages \ echos or what used to be at the top left of the screen so i never know flag status unless i bring the console down, did they take these out or did i just do something wrong?

I've experienced some succes with console messages by incorporating "developer 1" and "developer 0" into aliases. They have to be seperated by several commands or "waits" and work best when they are on seperate aliases. I made 2 for Engineer that work. The other alias I made is for flaginfo. For some weird reason, it only shows the second flaginfo line shown in the console. I have 0 idea why it does this. Here are my scripts.

// ***** THIS MUST BE USED IF YOU USE ANY OF THE SCRIPTS WITH "SHORTWAIT", "MEDWAIT", OR "LONGWAIT"
// Longer wait times may be needed with slower connections.

alias shortwait "wait;wait;wait;wait"
alias medwait "shortwait;shortwait"
alias longwait "medwait;medwait;medwait"

// The 13swipe script will change weapon to spanner and swing like a foo.
// Great for very quick SG upgrades and dispenser filling.
// Let go of the key to automatically switch back to super shotgun.
// Displays disp contents while filling, and your health/armor and comms team that you are building.

// 13swipe - slot1 to slot3
alias +13swipe "developer 1; wait; slot1; wait; +attack"
alias -13swipe "-attack;wait;slot3; developer 0" // melee + quick weapon to Super SG
bind "KEY" "+13swipe" // melee + quick weapon bind

// Sentry rotaion script to display rotation message to screen.
alias "+rot" "developer 1; wait; rotatesentry" // rotates sentry 45 degress
alias "+rot180" "developer 1; wait; rotatesentry180" // rotates sentry 180 degrees
alias "-rot" "medwait; developer 0"
alias "-rot180 "medwait; developer 0"

bind "b" "+rot"
bind "n" "+rot180"

//flag info
alias +finfo "developer 1; wait; flaginfo"
alias -finfo "medwait;developer 0"
//bind "i" "+finfo" //in binds.cfg

Again, flaginfo only gives the second flag message displayed in console.....I have no idea why.

whoever from valve messed with the echoing for steam, i hate them. if i had a 5-button mouse, i would use mouse3 for normal nade, and mouse4 for secondary nade. As it is i have no 4th mouse button, so i use a script that switches mouse3 between the nade types. it also echoed "grenade 1" or "grenade 2", based on what it had selected. i cant see that anymore, i have to look at the console SO I CAN SEE WHAT IM ABOUT TO THROW ALFHKSGJKLCVNKSW>GTH!!!! pisses me off, ill have to fix it :/
