    Me and my friend noticed a nice little "feature".

    When using the engineer tool and you than press the key for the vehicle menu (default v) you can let go the fire button. The game than assume you are still holding the button down, until you press it again. You can than free to close the vehicle menu.

    This is very convenient when building multiplied things or when you ran out of charges.

    No tired fingers more from building armory walls. ;)

    i bring up the xfire window, this also works for all other keys

    If i have to walk far i press forward, bring up xfire, press esc, and chat/drink/eat/read while i'm still going forward. I do the same when i have to build an entire building with the 'use' button as non engineer. That gives me plenty of time to do small tasks around the house while i'm building

    Bah, a bind how profane. ;)

    Just joking.


    Right! Became my favorite for the Bathroom Run too.

    I was thinking someone might had posted this before.

    But you know:

    "Not that I used the search function on the forums.
    My problems are always unique and people are interested to hear about them." :rolleyes:
