They're all powers, regardless of what they do, and they can't activate at the same time.
It has nothing to do with botting or exploits or the devs being sinister anti badge farming. The way powers are activated, they can only be done one at a time. The engine does not distinguish between attack power, travel power, ally buff power, self buff power or any other kind of power. They're all just powers.

To be more explicit, you can only turn on one power at a time. Just one, regardless of whether it's a defensive, travel, attack or anything else power.

As i recall there's a command/switch to activate a second power after the first if the button is held down for a second. Was it a - in front of one of the commands that does that? Been a while since i needed a bind to activate two powers in a row so i'm not sure if my recall is accurate. |

Try /bind [key] "+$$powexectoggleon ninja run$$powexectoggleon sprint"
What the + does is activate the first power when the button is pressed, and activate the second power when the button is released. If you hit the button fast enough, it won't register.

Are travel powers treated as attacks according to the game engine with an obvious caveat as no damage target self?
Tried to make a bind:
Bind 'key' "powexec_toggleon ninja run$$powexec_toggleon sprint"
Bind 'key' "powexec_toggleoff sprint$$powexec_toggleon combat jumping"
The second bind works but the first bind treats ninja run and sprint as attacks so i cant toggle them on at the same time. (double tapping works)
Seems odd any devs have an explanation for this? I get that queing up several attacks is avoided for botting purposes...but theres no purpose against allowing several travel powers turning on at the same time....since theres not even a badge for traveling and autorun and follow are allowed anyways.
