Help! Can't stop running forward

[OrganicPop]

I was trying to make a keybind to autofly without holding the button down.  I think I tried /bind numpad8 "powexecname mystic flight$$+forward".  Worked - except I can't turn it off.  I keep running forward.  I also cannot move backward, that just brings me to a stop.  I can't seem to reverse the effect.

- How can I fix this?

- Once its fixed, is there an auto fly keybind?

What you're looking for instead of "+forward" is "++autorun" in there.  That one will toggle forward movement.

To get the perma-foward to stop, try typing:  /-forward

W pushes you to fly forward. R maintains forward motion, until you tap W again. Thats how I do it, no extra keybinds necessary.

Here's my flying binds:

BUTTON4 "emote flypose1$$autorun 1$$powexectoggleon Fly$$+up"
BUTTON5 "autorun 0$$up 0$$powexectoggleoff Fly"

MouseChord "+up"

I bind them to the two extra buttons on my Logitech mouse, but you can use other keys for "Fly" / "Stop Flying" here. (I hit the back, slightly harder to find button to go, and then the forward, easier button to stop; with a little practice you can drop right at social-distancing space from the trainer, contact, door... it becomes a bit of a mini-game. 🙂 )

 

You do have to press the GO button at least twice, once to start flying forward, then again to set the pose. You can eliminate the second click and pose if you like. (or just ignore it, most of the time). Tapping any movement key will cancel the autorun forward.

 

The fancy bit here is the "+up" at the beginning, which makes your alt jump up before starting forward/fly. The good is that I find this keeps you from getting snagged on fences, walls and other obstacles; the bad is that there is a parsing bug that latches the command, so you keep rising. The workaround, which is also a useful addition, is pressing both mouse buttons ('mousechord') to give a little "up" bump that stops the rising. This bind also lets you fly (and run, and jump) with just the mouse hand, as you can not only steer with that hand, but rise and jump over further obstacles.

 

I've used this set for years and haven't found a better combination set, but that's why binds exist... we can all do it our own rotten way. Hopefully you can use or adapt this set to get where you want to... fly to.

This. If you are just trying to get an autorun instead of holding down the W key, the R key is autorun. It works for flight as well.

Any forward or back movement command that isn't ++ or 1 should stop the autorun.

 

OTOH, that '+forward' should not latch autorun; it should activate forward only as long as the key is pressed. Another example of the parsing bug, new in fairly recent updates (although it precedes I27) that reads a +MOVEMENT element in a string as ++MOVEMENT or MOVEMENT 1.

Thanks for all of these.  Problem solved!
