Hiding your gun

Hiding your gun
In some cases it's really useful to hide the gun. For one thing, when you display the gun, you also get the unfortunate effect of muzzle flash. So, every time you fire a bullet, there's a bright flash that can be distracting. Also, sometimes the gun itself can get in your way, which is annoying.

To turn your gun off, use the command "cg_drawgun 0". And to turn it back on, use "cg_drawgun 1". If you like, you can set up a toggle to turn your gun on and off. This is done with this command:

Code:

bind "K" toggle cg_drawgun

Personally, I like seeing when I have a syringe out, because then if I'm reviving someone I won't accidentally shoot them because I actually had a gun out. The only thing I really like to hide are weapon banks 2 and 3- i.e. pistols, SMGs, panzers, MGs, etc. So to do this, I came up with the following script:

Code:

bind 0 "cg_drawgun 1; weaponbank 10"
bind 1 "cg_drawgun 1; weaponbank 1"
bind 2 "cg_drawgun 0; weaponbank 2"
bind 3 "cg_drawgun 0; weaponbank 3"
bind 4 "cg_drawgun 1; weaponbank 4"
bind 5 "cg_drawgun 1; weaponbank 5"
bind 6 "cg_drawgun 1; weaponbank 6"
bind 7 "cg_drawgun 1; weaponbank 7"
bind 8 "cg_drawgun 1; weaponbank 8"
bind 9 "cg_drawgun 1; weaponbank 9"

Hopefully this isn't too confusing! Basically, this way I can be selective about which weapons get hidden and which ones get shown. Note the semicolons (the ; symbol) between the cg_drawgun command and weaponbank command. This is necessary to separate one command from another.
