When trading through space, you want to hold turbo down.

You also want to talk to people, which generally means pressing 'tab' to complete their long name that is filled with spaces. That means that you have to turn turbo off for a half second or so. We all know that this means that turbo speed drops from like 200 to like 150.

Life would be a lot better if you could talk to people without this.

We could get rid of the ` command, which currently brings up a huge text screen that has gotten be me killed a few dozen times, and make it the new 'completion' command for peoples names. But it should work only if your focus is already in the chat command line. It shouldnt pop-up the chat window when u are in the middle of botting and accidentally hit it.

No, i dont want to have to special bind it just for me. This is about more than me. It is something that everyone should have basic access to, especially newbies.

If anyone still uses the '`' text-window command more than two or three times in a day, ill gladly withdraw my suggestion. But I think that I, and many others, use '/msg tab-complete-name' all the time.

I use the console all the time. It's useful for things like starting to type something, then closing the console to fight off a bot, then reopening it to be able to continue typing where you left off.

so that ` thing is called "the console"?

This is a good suggestion, but the tilde key is the universal console key... it may cause confusion; specifically for newbies.

Why don't they make the key an option in controls, that way if you dislike the inconvenience you can change it?

I use tilde for the autofill you can get from it...

Instead of getting rid of the console, I'd prefer that they just make "autocomplete" bindable so that you can use whatever key you want.

ok forget it, i didnt know anyone used the console. will have to think about some other alternative. how about f2?

I think making the autocomplete key bindable would be best. However it would really confuse someone if they accidentally bound it to a regular alphabetical character.

How about adding a setting for turbo lock, then you wouldn't have to hold down Tab, and could type at will. I know this can be done at current (I love turbo lock), but most new players don't know about it, or how to do it.

No, turbo lock is disengaged if you press tab. So that won't really help with autocompletion problems.

Well, if you bind turbo to something other than tab it would work fine.

I have TAB bound to a turbo-toggle alias, using tab-completion in a chat line or the console doesn't affect my turboing at all.
