because it's just plain FUN.  --[[User:Happyguy123|Happyguy123]] 16:04, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

== bind "F1" toggleconsole ==

It is not possible to bind &sect; to the Console, list every button that does not work here:

* "§" does not work - use "\" on swedish keyboard instead

== Custom console ==

In games like {{bms|4}} and {{gmod|4}} the console is moified. In GMod it adds filter buttons, and BMS console is completely different from any oher {{source|4}} game. Is it modified by the game or its engine branch? <span style="font-family:TF2 Build;">[[User:Mr._SystemError|Mr. System Error]]<sup>([[User_talk:Mr._SystemError|T]] - [[Special:Contributions/Mr._SystemError|C]])</sup></span> 12:14, 30 May 2024 (PDT)

:BMS has its own console via its Qt UI. GMOD likely has some in-engine stuff behind it, but it may be done in the HUD files. IDK really, the only one I'm certain on is BMS. -[[User:Equalizer5118|Equalizer]] ([[User talk:Equalizer5118|talk]]) 15:13, 30 May 2024 (PDT)

== Sometimes console output is out of order ==

Not sure if this is game specific or it's triggered by something. Not sure where to search for such issue. But noticed few times console output being out of order.
For example when I used [[dumpeventqueue]] command in current Half-Life 2 it's being outputed every time in slightly different order. 

As I am writing this I noticed this is being caused by multicore rendering. After I set "mat_queue_mode 0" the issue stopped. --[[User:Nescius|Nescius]] ([[User talk:Nescius|talk]]) 19:01, 11 April 2025 (PDT)
:Testing in {{hls|2}}, {{asw|2}}, {{l4d2|2}} and didn't manage to replicate the issue there. But in for example {{hl2|2}}, {{portal|2}}, {{l4d|2}} it happens when multicore redering is enabled. Easily noticable when using [[dump_entity_sizes]] command as it will produce slightly different output each time while it should be the same --[[User:Nescius|Nescius]] ([[User talk:Nescius|talk]]) 19:34, 11 April 2025 (PDT)
