I'll need to test.  But I'm not sober at the moment, it being late and all my work for the day done.  I will test Wednesday.

You could use autohotkey to automate a holo toss with every right mouse release

- but every orb drop would be clearly superior -

For the ultimate troll taunt drop a holo with every air dodge

Isn't there a delay before you can throw a second holo_  If so wouldn't that prevent you from tossing them with every secondary shot_  Seems like I tried this once, or am I not remembering correctly_

There is, but I don't know how long it is in seconds. Maybe Fat Raider's secondary fires slow enough that it'd work, but on most mechs it'd probably throw one on every other shot.

This thread sucks, mine are definitely better. :^)


No but really I only taunt ppl I like. Rarely do I taunt out of spite or to rub it in, when I do I tend to have a good reason such as- you should have had me, you fuzzy bunny up.


Edit: does it work_ I guess that would depend on the person.

Loc always taunts me after he kills me.  I think it goes something along the lines of  "You suck scrub, gawd you should just unistall now.  You have to be the worst player in hawken"  I am 142% positive this really happens and is not just in my head .  But this just makes revenge that much sweeter when I get to throw my holotaunt at his corpse .

Quoted for truth in regards to 1v1ing Merl.

I do it after a good fight to compliment them, they usually take it the wrong way

I tried piping GBA_HoloTaunt after AltFire and AltFire2 in every file I could find, no dice. " | GBA_HoloTaunt"

Sorry.

I usually throw holotaunts for the same reasons as comic and dave do, but it's also fun to use them if an enemy accidentally EMPs both of us or if I overheat at the same time the person I'm fighting does.

Also, does anyone know of an easy way to make a macro that will let me throw a holotaunt each time I fire my secondary_ I have over 800 left that I need to get rid of before the game dies, and I'm not about to let them go to waste.

I second this. What better way to spend 100k+ in-game creds than to pop a crying bear every time my tow pierces through the air.

I can do it.  Took me less than 2 minutes of editing.  Evolwar can even attest to how little of time it took cause he called me when I started working on it and by the time I explained it to him, I had it done.  One of the problems though is it drops them every time you click whatever button you set it to, so if you set it to left mouse button, it throws one EVERYTIME you click that button, which means also in the garage screens and I'm not sure if it counts as a use in there.

I think that taunting over someone's corpse is rude, so I generally do it. ...

I'd say that's not what I meant to say, but I feel like it was probably a Freudian slip.

K, problems fixed.  I'm able to set a toggle key to active the deploy mode and deactivate it.
