Falling down

I have a bug when I turn deepfly on, my dummy will change weapon on every mouse click before shooting/hammering. I can solve it by switching from main to dummy when dummy has gun and switching weapon manually to hammer. Any idea how to solve it? I am using the recommended deepfly script

I have a bug when I turn deepfly on, my dummy will change weapon on every mouse click before shooting/hammering. I can solve it by switching from main to dummy when dummy has gun and switching weapon manually to hammer. Any idea how to solve it? I am using the recommended deepfly script

Change weapon first to hammer for dummy

Dummy changes back to gun

14:13

Also, sometimes I want to dummy to fire with laser

14:13

and the dummy will (sometime) change to gun then hammer then laser and cycle through them everytime I press fire

I see it is an entry on the git https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet/issues/3258 (edited)

Make scroll (weapon switch) non-sticky. · Issue #3258 · ddnet/ddnet

In the clip i quickly scrolled+switched to main tee, This makes the deepfly bind (bind mouse1 "+fire; +toggle cl_dummy_hammer 1 0") unusable. I see no harm in making the scroll wh...

Maybe I should stop using scroll wheel for changing weapons?

Dummy changes back to gun

You can even see it in the video : blue picks hammer, red shoots, blue swaps to gun

no and it's not a bug, you need to do cl_dummy_restore_weapon 0 at the beginning of your deepfly exec file

people keep circulating this shit deepfly bind without it and causing this question to get asked a lot

no and it's not a bug, you need to do cl_dummy_restore_weapon 0 at the beginning of your deepfly exec file

Will try this now.

cl_dummy_restore_weapon 0
bind mouse1 "+fire;+toggle cl_dummy_hammer 1 0 "
echo "Dummymode: Deepfly"
bind f exec "2.cfg"

18:42

will deepfly still work with laser equipped ? (edited)

18:46

Now the dummy will always change to hammer and keep it. That's already very good! Is there a way to instead make it consistently keep the equipped weapon and not change?

uhhh no

18:49

cl_dummy_hammer always changes to hammer

18:49

but the first shot will be whatever weapon was selected

if you check the video I posted, when the "bug" doesnt happen, red is shooting and blue is shooting back without changing weapon

18:53

that's the behavior I am thinking

use cl_dummy_restore_weapon 1 then

18:54

and just switch to whatever weapon you want before using deepfly

I put cl_dummy_restore_weapon at the end of my weapon binds, so hammer/pistol sets it to 1 and laser/sg sets it to 0. So when I wanna fly dummy won't keep switching but the laser trick will still work

19:17

If you use scroll to do prev/next weapon though this won't work :(

plsplsplslol

and just switch to whatever weapon you want before using deepfly

this was my setup in the video (cl_dummy_restore_weapon 1) but, as you can see, the moment I switch weapon I start the bug and the dummy will switch weapons on every click

are you using +nextweapon and +prevweapon

19:23

i think it doesnt work with those

yes, on the scroll wheel

19:28

so if I learn to play without +nextweapon and +prevweapon and the scroll wheel my issue will go away? drastic measures but at least that's a solution boo

boo

i think you should just use cl_dummy_restore_weapon 0

19:28

and switch it to 1 when you want to use a weapon other than hammer

I wish the devs would just make +nextweapon and +prevweapon non sticky

19:33

or change the behavior of dummy hammerfly, or add a setting to it

19:33

something like cl_dummy_hammerfly_swap_to_hammer

i remember evgesha said he fixed it

and I'd put it to 0 and be happy

i think the way he did it the dummy never tries to switch weapons ever

I would love that. I have the latest steam version and am still having the issue ; where can I find his version?

its his own custom client

he must have a branch on git

ye maybe

is he on this discord? I could send him a message

yeah click on the link

I am on windows without make or C I can't recompile the whole client

19:37

I will ask him

19:37

ty very very much

Changing weapons using Mouse wheel makes dummy switch his weapons when you use normal deepfly bind@SSB

I put +nextweapon and +prevweapon on left and right arrows and the bug still happens

If you switch to dummy and press 1 then dummy won't switch weapon

so I think the keys are "sticky" by default and the bug isnt with the wheel

Idk too much technical things

19:44

All I know is use specified keya for weapons

19:44

I always use 1,2,3,4,5 for weapons

indeed this stops the dummy from changing weapons like an idiot, and it still works with gun/laser

19:46

ty very much, problem somewhat solved

@SSB how do you switch weapons normally?

+nextweapon and +prevweapon on wheel

justatest

19:50

I can't imagine it

if I have my ring finger on left and index finger on right

19:50

the middle one on jump

How do you switch fast to desired weapon tho? Won't the weapon change one more time if the scroll is fast?

with what finger on the left hand do I change weapon quickly? I prefer to change weapon with right hand, then I have no choice but wheel

19:51

my mouse wheel has very nice "dents". You "feel" every discreet wheel + or wheel - input

19:52

it isnt continuous

Well everyone has their own preferences...

SSB

Oh nice

19:52

Your problem is solved right?

yes ty very much to everyone for the advices ; I will use 1 2 3 4 before deepfly to make dummy shut up

19:53

I would still call that a bug though and will look in the code if I can delete any line changing weapons for the dummy :p

I use QWERF for weapons, fwiw

people use all kinds of stuff tho

21:49

pistol, hammer, rocket, sg, laser respectively

21:52

lots of people stand by sticking to the scroll wheel, but I had issues with parts that require you to switch to specific weapons quickly and having dedicated binds really helped w/ that. I genuinely think it's a good move in the long run but I know some others disagree

voice control is the best option
