Keybinding

A player can customize some default keybindings by clicking on Menu in the Status Window, then Options.

For other commands, a player must use the command “/bind.” /bind can be used to create new keybindings which aren't already built into the game. The general format of the command is:

/bind keyname "command"

Keynames are listed under Default Keybindings. Commands are listed under Slash Commands. When creating a new keybinding, players should not type the / that normally precedes these commands.

A player can perform multiple commands in sequence by putting “$$” between the commands. For example:

/bind enter "show chat $$ startchat"

This forces the chat window to be visible and then moves your cursor to the chat window to start chatting.

Words beginning with $ are special. They are variables which are replaced. The currently supported variables are:
$target
$archetype
$origin
$name
$level

If a player wanted to make the "P" key that notified other people that he was about to attack a specific villain and attract its attention:

/bind P "say PULLING!$target $$ emote point"

If a player wants to return to the Default keybindings, he clicks on Menu, then Options, then Controls. Finally, he clicks on Reset Keybinds.
