so i'm trying to set a perm. key bind using the send command for mule to be able to start autora. in game i can just type //send mulesname ara start and it works fine but how would i go about keybinding this in the init.txt file at loadup.

bind f12 showfps
bind sysrq screenshot png hide
bind ^v paste
bind !, /input send imwthstupd ara start
echo Toggle Lighting = F11 (Bump mapping must be off to work properly)
echo Toggle FPS = F12

currently tried this added console but i'm not great at this any help would rock. tyia

Well, since you've made another thread... I'll repost here.

basically, you just need to leave out the //

Inside of a script(or in the console), // indicates a commment. And everything on the line past the // is ignored.

So with the // out of the way, you just mimic the other bind commands, but use yours and the main part. kinda like this.

bind F11 send mulesname ara start

I actually didn't know about the @ for windows key bit. that's potentially useful. Thanks.

If you want you could go a step further and only do it to jobs you want to have that feature, and also so it keeps your binds open for other things for other jobs. You could add this in to GearSwap get_sets(): (Assuming you are using it.)
Code 
function get_sets()
    
    -- Load common keybinds.
    send_command('bind @1 send mulesname ara start)    -- Auto Ranged.
    
    -- Unload Key Settings.
    function file_unload()
    
        send_command('unbind @1')
    
    end
    
end


Now only works for those specific jobs that need Auto RA, and will unload when the file runs the unload.
