I'm sick of trying to get my rocket jumps accurate enough to actually jump places, that I'm left trying to jump instead of killing the enemy.

This would be helpful in Half Life 2 too. As they have the same engine, doing something in one should be the same in the other, right?

How can I bind a series of keys to a single button?

Try, try and try again. Building skill need time and patience. Scripting is not satisfying as learning to do manually. – Drake Jul 7 '10 at 22:40
I take it you mean Half-Life 2. Half-Life and Team Fortress 2 don't share the same engine. TF2 has the same engine as HL2, the Source engine. Half-Life, and Team Fortress Classic, use the GoldSrc engine. Just so you know. – user56 Jul 7 '10 at 22:41
Sorry, it was neigh on 6am when I posted that. I thought HL was synonymous with HL2. Altered. – glasnt Jul 7 '10 at 23:06

You need an alias. Create a file called autoexec.cfg in your Steam\steamapps\YOUR_ALIAS_HERE\team fortress 2\tf\cfg and add the following:

//Rocket Jump
alias +rocketjump "+jump;+duck;wait;+attack"
alias -rocketjump "-jump;-attack;wait;wait;wait;-duck"
bind mouse2 "+rocketjump"

Change mouse2 to your desired key. You can do so much with scripting, this is just one example. Check out the TF2 Wiki for more.

Side note: Don't use TF2Wiki any more, use wiki.teamfortress.com instead. wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Soldier_scripts should be the same page on the official TF wiki. – user2974 Sep 1 '10 at 14:45
