[New G2O][Client-Side] Key Combination - Patrix - 08.06.2017

*Introduction:

NOTE! You have to enable event onRender via enableEvent_Render function

Info: This script is stable and propably doesn't have any bugs.

Hi there, lately i was working on some simple script, which allows to register some key shortcuts in game and i want to share my work.
It's easy to use, for example: you can bind ALT+F4 shortcut to quickly close the game. Also if you want to add combination like:
CTRL+WINDOWS (L_CTRL or R_CTRL) + (L_WINDOWS or R_WINDOWS) you can use string replacements for keys like:
CONTROL, ALT, SHIFT and WINDOWS.

*List of functions:


void addKeyCombination(array keys, func callback, [[optional: bool multiple)
void removeKeyCombination(array keys, [[optional: func callback, bool multiple ]])


*List of string replacements: (they're blind to letter capitalization)


"Windows" // This key replacement should be used when you want to add shortcut which is using one of the Windows keys (Left or Right).
"Control" // This key replacement should be used when you want to add shortcut which is using one of the Control keys (Left or Right).
"Ctrl" // This is the alias for "Control".
"Alt" // This key replacement should be used when you want to add shortcut which is using one of the Alt keys (Left or Right).
"Shift" // This key replacement should be used when you want to add shortcut which is using one of the Shift keys (Left or Right).


*Function (addKeyCombination, removeKeyCombination) parameters description:

Info: The more arguments you give in removeKeyCombination function, the more precise you remove bound key shortcut(s).
NOTE! You can skip (set as null) every argument in calling removeKeyCombination function.


// Required parameters for addKeyCombination

array keys // Array of shortcut keys.
void callback // The function which will be called.

// Optional parameters for addKeyCombination

bool multiple /* If this argument is equal true (default is false),
when you hold keys, function will be called more than once. */


*Examples:


*Basic add key shortcut (fast closing game):

Squirrel Script
  1. addKeyCombination([KEY_LMENU,KEY_F4], exitGame)



*Another add key shortcut (with multiple):

Squirrel Script
  1. addKeyCombination(["Ctrl",KEY_S], function()
  2. { // adding LCTRL+S or RCTRL+S combination
  3. 	print("Spam") // this will pring msg in console (~) and this function will be called more than once when you hold keys.
  4. },true)



*Basic remove key shortcut:

Squirrel Script
  1. // dummy example adding and removing combination
  2. addKeyCombination([KEY_LMENU,KEY_F4], exitGame)
  3. removeKeyCombination([KEY_LMENU,KEY_F4],exitGame)



*Another remove key shortcut:

Squirrel Script
  1. addKeyCombination([KEY_Q,KEY_E],function()
  2. {
  3. 	print("This msg will be printed only once!") // printing msg in console(~)
  4. 	removeKeyCombination([KEY_Q,KEY_E]) // removing every combination Q+E
  5. })




RE: [New G2O][Client-Side] Key Combination - Patrix - 23.12.2017

Thread and script have been updated.

Changes:
-Thread has been completely rewritten.
-onRender function has been optimalized (less looping)
-Added string replacements. Example: You have L_Ctrl and R_Ctrl, and let's assume that you want to add one combination like:
L_CTRL+S or R_CTRL+S. To do that simpler you can use string replacements for keys like: Control, Shift, Alt and Windows.
