====== Binds ======
In Vendetta Online, the player can customize their own binds and aliases to improve their experience. These can range from a simple bind to toggle the auto-aim mode, to a complicated system of aliases and binds that can be used as an online encyclopedia.
===== How to "Install" Binds =====
If you are taking binds from another source, say the [[http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/1/3229|Custom Binds and Aliases Thread]], you won't need to type them in manually unless you want to do it the hard way.
- Find the file named __**wgaf.cfg**__ in your Vendetta folder and open it. For Mac users, you will have to **Show Package Contents** of the Vendetta Online package in order to get to it. For Windows users, you can find it in either ''C:\Program Files\Guild Software\Vendetta\wgaf.cfg'' or ''C:\Program Files\Vendetta Online\wgaf.cfg'' depending on when you installed the game. Linux users can find the file in ''~/.vendetta/wgaf.cfg''. You should open it in a simple text editor (not a word processing application), such as Notepad, TextEdit, vim, or possibly emacs.
- Clean up the WGAF file by removing any '/' characters at the beginning of the aliases and/or binds you copied.
===== The List =====
* [[binds:Auto Aim Toggle]] - Lets you assign a key to toggle the auto-aim feature.
* [[binds:Controllable Rotation Speed]] - Lets you change your ship's rotation speed (with limits, of course).
* [[binds:Variable Zoom]] - Allows you to zoom in/out incrementally, using the mouse wheel if you so desire.
===== How to Make Binds =====
The commands **/alias** and **/bind** are the only tools used to make your own command-line scripts and shortcuts.
=== Syntax ===
* /alias AliasName "Command text"
* /bind "Key" "AliasName"
=== Use ===
- Decide what you want your bind to do. In this example, we'll make a command that sends a string of text to your currently active channel.
