Activate with an item

[morningstar]

What I am thinking of would be a mod or player type (I know nothing about scripting, so I don't know which would be better) where you can activate bricks with an item still out. 
The idea is that with either a right click or hotkey, if the player is using an item, he/she will essentially click, and do whatever action he/she would like to do.

Helpful or opening doors in a TDM or omething.

Didn't you already suggest this?


Right click is already used for stuff, but it could be coded into the item.


You'd probably be better off using the Use Key mod.

also, doesn't need to be a playertype, that'd complicate things too much

First, I don't think I suggested this, though I know it has been suggested. 
Also, can the key mod be used within a certain distance, even in a certain direction? 
I just think it would be nice to not have to open a door and instantly be defenseless, even for a brief period of time.

Why the heck does nobody tell me THAT when I need to hear it first thing?
Oh well, better check that out...

EDIT: I just covered this, I want some way to make it directional, ie doors and such.  Unless I fail to understand this, which I probably do, the it is not at all what I was talking about.

OTHER EDIT: made a judgement before reading the actual suggestion behind it, awesome!
