Idea: merge the menus

[ReBoot]

Since every NPCs reacts to +use, there's almost no use for menu interact anymore. The only thing is... The general "item desc" and "forgive PK" actions when you use the menu command on empty space.

Suggestion: put these both commands into the main menu. Players won't have to bind menu interact anymore and that would reduce the amount of keys needed.

good idea, but it'd probably have to wait till we have enough other fixes that require a client.dll upgrade.

I'm still waiting for glow moving client side (and all other GFX too).

Hmmm... how many binds does MSC really need right now?? Hardly any when you actually check the bindings list... at least in comparison to other mods now-a-days (like for HL2, Eternal Silence & its hundred or so binds).

I guess it could make things a bit easier though, if the menus were combined in a manor that'd reduce the time shuffling between the two...

While on this area... I think the vote-kick system should be fixed up... since a few days ago I noticed it tried to boot me when I voted for somebody else -_-

I thought maybe this was fixed already, but I guess not.

Umm.. Glow is client side. There's no server side dynamic light generation.

Scripts can be run on either client or server, or both, so there's a lot of client side mods we can do without fuxing with the client.dll - but changing the menu's is rather limited.

You still need the NPC interaction menu to deal with venders who have quests, lest you wanna type 'hail'.

Tis always been effed up. I'm not sure if it's even using the right ID system. Use the AMX votekick (type votekick playername in chat)

So the sugggestion is: let the +use key call the NPC interaction menu (which contains the traiding option).
