+voicerecord

An in game leader might use this command at the beginning of the round so they can continue speaking to their team without needing to hold a button. They could then use -voicerecord when they don't have anything to say.


alias mic "mikeon";alias mikeon "+voicerecord; alias mic mikeoff";alias mikeoff "-voicerecord; alias mic mikeon";bind "F1" "mic"

This is a command that will bind the F1 key to turning your mic on or off. Rather than needing to hold a button down, you can just press F1 once to start speaking, and then press F1 once when you're done. This can be set to anything, such as mouse4 to bind it to a mouse button if you have one.

-voicerecord


-voicerecord

This console command will stop transmitting voice communication if you've used a command that lets you communicate without holding down a hotkey. Check the examples for a bind to toggle between transmitting voice and not doing so.

Examples


alias mic "mikeon";alias mikeon "+voicerecord; alias mic mikeoff";alias mikeoff "-voicerecord; alias mic mikeon";bind "F1" "mic"

This command binds the F1 key on your keyboard to a toggle between continously transmitting voice to your team and not doing so. This means instead of holding your mic hotkey to speak, you can just press a button once. You can use anything that suits you, not just F1, such as mouse4 if you have mouse buttons.
