All keys on the keyboard are bound to [[Slash Commands|commands]].
A bind is a reference for the game to understand what a particular key does. Almost every command in the game is inputted through a bind of some variety. The keys the game uses for basic controls are bound to [[Slash Commands|commands]], and through these, the game understands the commands you input. When you re-organize your keyboard through the options interface (Menu--> Options--> Keymapping tab), the game interface is re-binding keys for you.
 
For example, by default:
*"W" is bound to the command '''+forward'''.
*"W" is bound to the command '''+forward'''.
*"1" is bound to '''powexecslot 1'''.
*"1" is bound to '''powexecslot 1'''.
*"F7" is bound to '''"say <color black><bgcolor #22aa22>Ready! $$ emote thumbsup"'''.
*"F7" is bound to '''"say Ready!$$emote thumbsup"'''.
**"F7" actually has 2 commands, separated by "$$".
 
In the above example, note that "F7" has the $$ marker in it. This tells the game that it is actually 2 commands, separated by "$$", and that it's to execute them in order.
 
You can change a bind, or create your own binds, by using the [[slash command]] {{slashcommand|bind}} or through [[Bind File]]s.

[[Bind File]]s are simple text files, which list a number of binds in a standardized format. This can allow you to load up multiple binds - or different sets of binds - for a character. You can even specify keys to load binds as part of a bind file's contents, allowing cyclical binds.


These binds can be changed through the /bind command, or through [[bindfile]]s (which are saved a loaded through the /bindsave, /bindload, /bindsavefile, and /bindloadfile commands).

Overview

A bind is a reference for the game to understand what a particular key does. Almost every command in the game is inputted through a bind of some variety. The keys the game uses for basic controls are bound to commands, and through these, the game understands the commands you input. When you re-organize your keyboard through the options interface (Menu--> Options--> Keymapping tab), the game interface is re-binding keys for you.

For example, by default:

  • "W" is bound to the command +forward.
  • "1" is bound to powexecslot 1.
  • "F7" is bound to "say Ready!$$emote thumbsup".

In the above example, note that "F7" has the $$ marker in it. This tells the game that it is actually 2 commands, separated by "$$", and that it's to execute them in order.

You can change a bind, or create your own binds, by using the slash command /bind or through Bind Files.

Bind Files

Bind Files are simple text files, which list a number of binds in a standardized format. This can allow you to load up multiple binds - or different sets of binds - for a character. You can even specify keys to load binds as part of a bind file's contents, allowing cyclical binds.
