Automatically reporting

I have played with a few players that has a setting that allows them to automatically report the enemy when they spot them rather than using the button. Could someone maybe explain to me how they do this, i have asked and i get is silence

    Yes, I'd like to know how they do this too!

    Ive heard people putting it on the fire button and on another button thats constantly pressed like moving.
    I dont see the use of it though. Manually is much better, in the past there was no or hardly cooldown on spotting so it made sense then.

    Most likely some sort of bind. It's not as OP as it used to be since they nerfed the frequency you can button mash a few years ago, plus the annoying sound. I ran the bind many years ago tied to my fire button but removed it due to this change as well as server owners stance on it.

    We used to change it in the .ini file, however they removed that option for us. Me personally I made a script for my Logitech mouse using LUA. Not sure if it's allowed to post it, however I think it's not game breaking so if its not allowed a Dev or Mod can remove the script part below.
    function OnEvent(event, arg)    
             if event == "PROFILE_ACTIVATED" then
                 EnablePrimaryMouseButtonEvents(true)
             end
    if (event == "MOUSE_BUTTON_PRESSED" and arg == 1) then
    PressAndReleaseKey("J") 
    end
    end

    I have mine on a macro for my mouse key. 7 button mouse. It doesn't do auto spotting unless I push it. But they have scripts for macros that can do it every 5 seconds for you. Problem would be when you really needed the spot key you would have to wait 5 seconds. Easier to just push the spot key. Also the people that use auto spotting doesn't really help them at all.

    Scripts that spam it are useless yes, seen some people do it.. That's the dummy way :3
    That's why when i press my left mouse, it also gives the command to press J (standard spot key).

    So.....a way to find enemies without using your own eyes or what the Devs designed into the game?

    What does that sound like to you?

    Yep. That's what it sounds like to me, too.

    Thats why it easier for me to just click my mouse to spot someone. Sometimes I get a spot key and dont even know where their at. lol
