==Random Phrases==
===Switch from Combat Jumping to Super Jump===
This bind isn't so much a bind as it is a miniature progam. What it does is pretty cool in my humble little opinion. When you press the key designated in the file, any one of the many phrases that you wrote (and possibly emotes or power executions... see the guide to binds for other ideas of things that you can randomize) will come up. I'd suggest using several different sayings, as they can get annoying if repeated, the more you think you're going to use it, the more sayings you should put in there.
''/bind yourkeyhere "powexec_name Combat Jumping$$powexec_name Super Jump"''


Ok, so now that you know what it is, here's how it looks.
:* I rarely use this any more as I've found that I don't often need to switch between the two.


You need two text files, one will be empty. For the sake of simplicity, I'll use blank.txt for the loading file and phrases.txt as the listing file. Place both of these files in the same folder, I'll use C:/cohbinds
===Teleport enhancer===
''/bind lshift+lbutton "powexec_name Teleport"


The batch file should look like this;
:* This will allow you to chain teleports by holding down the left shift key and clicking with the mouse where you want to teleport to.


=random.bat=
Ironik here with travel binds that I use. Hope they're helpful!

:* A /bind activates the last power in the list first, so switch around to taste.
FOR /F "DELIMS=~~~" %%i IN (phrases.txt) DO (echo %%i>blank.txt)&&SLEEP 1&&ECHO %%i
</nowiki>


<nowiki>
:* In order to find out the name of a power, simply mouseover the icon in your power tray.  Then insert the power name you want to bind.
GOTO TOP
::* For instance, in the Hover/Fly bind below, the Kheldian powers are called "Combat Flight" and "Energy Flight."
</nowiki>


This file should be in the same folder as your two text files.
===Switch from Fly to Hover===
''/bind yourkeyhere "powexec_name Hover$$powexec_name Fly"''


The phrases.txt is where all the magic is done. The cool thing about this setup is that you can have different emotes attached to each saying... the drawback is that you have to have a longer file... Example:
:* I use the E key because it's easily accessible in combat.
::* E's default is to turn your character to the right, so if you want to preserve that ability then you'll have to bind a different key.


=phrases.txt=
:* I prefer activating Fly first so I can use it as a panic button. Up, up and away!
<nowiki>
F10 "em dance$$Local Hi!$$bind_load_file C:/cohbind/target.txt"
</nowiki>


<nowiki>
===Auto Super Jump===
F10 "em wave$$Local My name is $name, who are you today?$$bind_load_file C:/cohbind/target.txt"
''/bind yourkeyhere "++up$$++autorun$$powexec_name Super Jump"''
</nowiki>


<nowiki>
:* I use this for hands-free Super Jumping. Useful for bounding while typing.
F10 "em shrug$$Local How are you today?$$bind_load_file C:/cohbind/target.txt"
</nowiki>
 
<nowiki>
F10 "Local S'up?$$bind_load_file C:/cohbind/target.txt"
</nowiki>
 
<nowiki>
F10 "em frustrated$$Local GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!$$bind_load_file C:/cohbind/target.txt"
</nowiki>
 
You can replace 'Local' with 'say' and it will be said in the current channel, you can use any button in the place of F10... I'm just used to F10.
 
blank.txt is... blank, but there has to be an empty text file by that name to start with.
 
Make SURE that the program is running and you type "/bind_load_file C:/cohbinds/blank.txt" (not phrases.txt, that would just mess it all up) in the game before trying this.
