The Scout

The Scooty Scoot is an Action taunt for the Scout. When activated, the Scout takes out and rides on a comically small purple moped. Pressing Primary Fire (default key: MOUSE1) will cause the the Scout to perform a wheelie for 3 seconds while reciting different taunt-exclusive voicelines.

The Scout will continuously drive forward, being impossible to stop or reverse; it is possible to turn left and right, though.

Trivia

  • The moped used in the taunt is the one used by Miss Pauling in Expiration Date, which is reflected in its texture file pauling_moped.vtf.
  • VTF filename strings of the textures for the taunt's prop were found in the texture_preload_list.txt file when it was originally added to the game in the October 28, 2015 Patch indicating that Valve had been testing it back in 2015 before it was added officially in the Scream Fortress 2018 update.
