can the new version of MQ2 have /stopcast automapped to duck

I don't know how easy this is to do but I've always wished they would make ducking out of spell casting possible while on mounts, and now that they finally decided to implement something it seems mapping it to the DUCK button was too hard for them so maybe MQ2 can take care of that?

/stopcast is primarily for hybrids so they dont have to stop attacking on a duck.
But this is far better then /stopcast for non hybrids:

or just use /alias
/alias [list|delete aliasname] [name command]
Useful for creating shorter versions of a command.
/alias list
Lists all aliases

even if it's not able to be bound to an EQ key by EQ:
/custombind add stopcast
/custombind set stopcast /stopcast
/bind stopcast x

/stopcast specifcally does NOT stop casting if you are on a mount.

Best i can figure it, the 2 reasons it was implemented, were
1) To not break attacking while casting
2) As a workaround to the double shrunk large races who could often find they couldnt duck (ie why fix another collision style bug when we can add a command)

the command is useless for any pure casters though because it forces you to wait for spells to recover still, whereas if you duck you can cast another spell right away

Code: Select all
name=cancel
down=/if (${Me.Mount.ID}) /dismount
up=/stopcast
/bind cancel x
Have mine bound to my backspace key.
