Making your avatar continuesly move forward

With these changes, your avatar will continue to move forward even if you move the mouse or the left and right turn keys. The only way to cancel it is by pressing the down key.

Why would you use this?
1. You love your users and care enough about their middle finger. People who play Counter-Strike 3 hours staight knows what I'm taking about. :wink:
2. Your making a game that requires extensive manuevering.
3. Your making a 1st/3rd person RPG game that forces the user to walk all-over the place.

To apply this, follow the following steps:
1. Make a backup of client/scripts/default.bind.cs. This file exist in each of the MOD (FPS, DEMO, STARTER.FPS) directory that can be found in torque/example directory.
2. Open this file and search for the movebackward function. Change it to the following:

Quote:
function movebackward(%val)
{
$mvBackwardAction = %val;
// Make sure that we dont move forward again
$mvForwardAction = 0.0;
}

3. Then add the following at the end of the file:

Quote:
function lockForward(%val)
{
if(%val){
if($mvForwardAction)
$mvForwardAction = 0.0;
else
$mvForwardAction = 1.0;
}
}
moveMap.bind(keyboard, "shift w", lockForward);

Thats it! :)

Some final words. I would have love to say that I just pulled this out of my hat but thats not true. Although, I had the original idea and the script that I posted here ... I had some help on making them. I would like to acknowledge the help of Brad 'fragbert' Shapcott and Jared Schnelle; both GarageGames members.
