How do you bind keys to emotes?

[[nigs[ trog]

I don't know much about gmk, but I've gone through the source and I couldn't find anything that said "this key does this". (I'm probably just looking in the wrong place).
I want to bind the arrow emotes to the arrow keys, and bind the uber emote to a key, so how would I go about doing that?

Pff.... You know, you could, but there's a bunch of mods where people have already done that, and I'm not doubting that you could do this but, why would you when it's already done for you?

There's already a mod for that, not sure where. Look through the first couple pages of the mods section.

Is there though? I mean, pretty much every custom mod ever has , but I don't remember anyone ever posting Vanilla Garrison with 'em.

It is there,

Check the bubble overlay coding, I can't quote the code at the moment

Anyways what if the next vanilla update had arrow keys? It would create room for 4 more bubbles!

If you want to bind a bubble you would make a key press event and execute this

Code:

clearbuffer(global.sendBuffer);
    writebyte(CHAT_BUBBLE,global.sendBuffer);
    writebyte(##,global.sendBuffer);
    sendmessage(global.serverSocket, 0, 0, global.sendBuffer);

Where ## is whatever desired bubble you want.

These would go in the key press events you'd add to the PlayerControl object.

Not necessarily you can place them in other objects, and still have them work; eg Character.

I believe Ap was talking about specifically binding them to keys, which is what Trogdor up there wants to do.

Which can be binded through the Character object too.

GOD DAMN IT L, TROG ASKED A SIMPLE QUESTION AND NOW YOU'RE JUST TRYING TO CONFUSE THE POOR GUY.

Just is the most sensical place to put them so as to find it later and whatnot.

Yes I too see that using PlayerControl object to be best, whichever way it would work.

[NAGN]

Don't you think it's cleaner and better to put the player control into the player control object?

Besides, you can't say that for everything, because player control is key for other people things
