I'm a Tac officer flying a defiant retrofit. Normally I activate my attack patterns then decloak and fire my cannons, wait till it drains the shields then fire a BO3.
But when I just hit space bar to fire all weapons it fires the BO3 as well without me wanting to so I'll try this keybind.
Simon_Picard, thank you for the correction; there is always something to learn. It is a good thing I never got that aspect to work
No worries, it's formatting is a bit different, no space with the first number (+trayexecbytray 0 1 vs usetrayslot0 1) which is one of those very obvious to miss things, possibly why you didn't get it to work?
The fact it makes a sound on failure to activate though means everyone should avoid it anyway.
Is there a way to include a key in the bind so that I can include a second set of binds on one key?
Ex. I bind the space for distribute shields, fire weapons, and various other abilities that I want up as much as possible. Problem is, I run out of room to assign everything to one key. If I create a bind command for "3", is there a way to include inputing "3" in my "space" key bind so that it activates the "3" bind also?
Thanx for the great thread and everyones input into it. I don't know how many times I've linked this thread to friends.

Sounds like you are only using the chat window for binding. I recommend you use a bindfile. With bindfiles the length of the key bind is not limited. Do this:
/bind_save_file keybinds.txt
You can find the file in your STO Live folder (C:\~\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online\Live). Open it with a simple text editor (notepad) and go at it. You'll find your firebutton is "space" for space bar.
I tried the bind file stuff. Opened my keybinds file .txt and now my ground is using the same keybinds even though I have no ground KB set up. In space things are fine (still restricted in length. You know what I mean) and work properly.
Noen of the reset to default options seem to fix it. Not the ESC / Keybinds/Default or the '/" command.
I don't even have a "shift" run option now.
lol
Its quite nerve racking.
I hate learning new stuff sometimes.
