F1 "Target_TeamMate 1 $$ Assist"
F2 "Target_TeamMate 2 $$ Assist"
F3 "Target_TeamMate 3 $$ Assist"
F4 "Target_TeamMate 4 $$ Assist"

A bit redundant. If you know the names of your teammates:

F1 "assist Dude"
F2 "assist Smurfette"
F3 "assist SheldonCooper"
F4 "assist HelloKitty"

From my Assists.txt desktop file:

/Bind F1 "assist Francesco$$party "Assist Francesco on: $target""
/Bind F1 "assist Francesca$$party "Assist Francesca on: $target""
/Bind F1 "assist Francesca -Eng.$$party "Assist Francesca -Eng on: $target""

I guess but i dont play with the same 4 people all time, also would be lame to change binds all the time :p

and.. yay sheldon cooper!


I also like hello kitty, but dont tell

For the sake of argument...stop me now if I'm taking this too far but..

You could write a batch file to automatically generate a bind file called say target.txt in your STO folder and also copy the "bind_load_file target.txt" command to the clipboard. It would be quite straight forward I think. I reckon even I could do it.

That way all you would need to do is launch the batch file, enter the names, hit enter, then ctrl+v in STO to apply the bind. That way you could set up binds as quick as you can type 5 names.

Ok, so I did it. Pretty easy to use. Are there rules against such things? If not, would anyone like the code?

A quick test, using the names you did, I produced the bind file and imported it into STO in 17s. i'm sure I could do quicker I made a mistake or 2 typing.

1 target hale
2 target era
3 target hil'bert
4 target linnty
5 target tide the roleplayer


A little tedious if you don't really care about macros, but if you are going to the trouble to create a target macro anyway it's probably worth it.

Why not just use the built in key-binds for target teamate 1 2 3 and 4?

Because with that you are only targeting your Teammate X, with the added "assist" command you instantly switch to whoever your Teammate X is attacking.

This :p 89

Shame on you. I wrote you that assist bind a long time ago.
