AngryJesusMan Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 I know this is a niche command, but I was trying to test the slash command /speed_turn before trying to add it to a macro or bind. When I type it (example: /speed_turn 180, which should spin my character in place to be facing the exact opposite direction), nothing happens. When I say nothing happens, not only does the command not execute, but the error and system channel does not send a prompt telling me that /speed_turn is an unknown command. Am I doing something wrong or is there something I'm missing? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngryJesusMan Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 Nevermind. I finally figured out how to ACTUALLY use /speed_turn. My mistake. Please disregard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AngryJesusMan Posted April 30, 2021 Author Share Posted April 30, 2021 (edited) My pleasure. The description on the wiki was vague. It stated: "Sets the number of degrees for rotateleft/right". This description left me with the mistaken impression that you could use /speed_turn 180 and it would spin the character in place 180 degrees. Upon some testing I figured out what it was actually doing. I have changed the description on the wiki to the following: "Changes the speed of your turns using keyboard keys. (Sets the number of degrees per tick when using keybinds for rotateleft/right)" The reason the system wasn't throwing an error is because it was executing the command; I just didn't understand precisely what it was doing. With some trial and error, I believe that the default rotateleft/right setting is 5. Using /speed_turn 180 ended up making my character turn when using the default q and e or left arrow and right arrow keys on the keyboard approximately 36 times faster than default, making it unmanageably fast. I looked at the /turnleft and /turnright commands as alternatives because of their descriptions on the wiki. Those descriptions are patently wrong, but I can't precisely pin down what it is that the game is doing when you use the command. I would update the wiki, but the fact that I can't quite determine what the game is doing means makes it impossible for me to accurately describe it. 🤥 Edited April 30, 2021 by AngryJesusMan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
