Saving us from carpal tunnel one script at a time.

I use something like this but a bit more scripted.

I have variables for weapon1 and weapon2 and a binary variable for shield1 and shield2, so I can do

weap1 authority 1
weap2 bill 0

And then weapset is another binary variable that tracks which I'm using, while alias swap switches between weapon sets and reverts weapset to allow the same alias to keep swapping. If I remember I'll dig it out of my settings later. Lets me do this for all chars. Finney's adaptation is super clever remembering to alias k between shoot and kill - hadn't ever played ranger and hadn't even thought of it until I saw it here.

In mine, I set the ability change weapons/containers on the right-click menu.

That's great, except recent changes to disarm cripple this classes' effectiveness.

EDIT: In other words, it would be nice if the class could account for multiple melee weapons.

It already does. You can change the weapons called by the alias on the fly via variables. If your primary melee weapon is an epee and it gets disarmed, change your variable to whatever backup weapon you use.

I change variables on the fly all the time in between combat rounds - mainly my targeting variable {#ALIAS tar {#VARIABLE target %1}}, but weapons should be no different unless you fat finger or typo frequently.

Should probably have a trigger in there to call for a >>>>>@#$% MY LIFE<<<<<< when your character gets disarmed.
