Dollar
Sign Macros "$$"
Introduction To Macros
Macros in Threewave are just a fancy name for A Shorthand
Language With Lots Of Dollarsigns that we created.
Often in teamgames, players message each other.
"I was
killed by the red team" could be one message. But wait -- what
if you're on the blue team? You need a separate message. Not
anymore. Now, you can type "I was killed by $Q" and it
will automatically fill in the enemy team's colour.
The List
- $H - Your current health
- $A - Current armor and class
- $W - Current weapon
- $N - List all weapons the player currently has
- $M - Amount of ammo for current weapon
- $U - Amount of ammo for all weapons in arsenal
- $T - Current tech (same as current rune)
- $R - Current rune (same as current tech)
- $E - Closest tech/rune on the ground that can be seen
- $I - Closest item, mega, armor, powerup, ammo
- $B - Current holdable (medkit/teleporter/powerscreen)
- $L - Current location (q3's target_location used on overlay)
- $O - Current location Q2 style (nearest weapon/powerup)
- $P - Closest player that can be seen
- $F - Closest friendly player that can be seen
- $Y - Closest enemy player that can be seen
- $C - Last player to attack you
- $K - Last player to kill you
- $S - Colour of your team
- $Q - Colour of enemy team
- $D - Last enemy you damaged
- $G - Last enemy you killed
