[JASS] RtC Keycodes

[Element of Water]

In case you haven't already heard, people, the new RtC is out and compatible with the new patch! Hooray! You can find it here.

Anyway, the point of the thread was this:

When using RtC's key events, you need to specify a keycode, and no way of knowing which keycode does what is included. So I compiled a list of all those I could find and turned it into a nice struct:

library RtCKey
{
    public struct RtCKey
    {
        static constant integer BACKSPACE       = 8,
                                TAB             = 9,
                                ENTER           = 13,
                                SHIFT           = 16,
                                CTRL            = 17,
                                ALT             = 18,
                                PAUSE_BREAK     = 19,
                                CAPS_LOCK       = 20,
                                ESC             = 27,
                                SPACE           = 32,
                                PAGE_UP         = 33,
                                PAGE_DOWN       = 34,
                                END             = 35,
                                HOME            = 36,

                                INSERT          = 45,
                                DELETE          = 46,

You can just do RtCKey.A or whatever key you need.

Now, I'd like people to check this list, see if anything obvious needs to be added, tell me if I got any wrong.

Thanks!

 

[Etzer]

Correct me if i am wrong, but will this make WE able to detect whetever a person presses : SHIFT, CTRL, ALT, and all that stuff?

 

[Element of Water]

Yep. It's amazing.

 

[Etzer]

Oh wow. I have nothing to say. Thats amazing.

 

[Element of Water]

It does other stuff too, detect like mouse clicks anywhere (left, right and wheel) and even move the mouse with code.

 

[overload119]

Add the ZINC codes.

//zincon

This is ZINC right?

 

[Element of Water]

Yes, this is Zinc.

And you don't need the

//! zinc
//! endzinc

when you import scripts directly, like I do. This isn't a release, this is for people to look at and correct if necessary.

 

[Troll-Brain]

If only it could work with multi player without synchrony data

 

[Element of Water]

Yeah...

Updated, added RtCKey.SPACE and RtCKey.isDown

Use RtCKey.isDown by accessing it as an array with the key code you want to check for, e.g.:

if (RtCKey.isDown[RtCKey.W]) then
    // move forward
endif

 

[Justify]

Basic but usefull Any reason to not use anonymous functions for the conditions? Just for the imbaness of Zinc code

 

[Element of Water]

Because they look kind of ugly

If you really want them, I'll do it

 

[Noobsmoke]

hey , i want some custom scripts with this . Is that possible ? i mean a boolean who is true when a player press "W" and false when the player releases "W"

 

[Justify]

Did you even read this? That is already included: http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/triggers-scripts-269/rtc-keycodes-162988/#post1531235

 

[hell gate]

JNGP shows me a error here:

EVENT_TYPE_UP
EVENT_TYPE_DOWN

what i have done wrong? (i don't use exactly this)

EDIT: solved -.-'

 

[Cweener]

Element, I'm not sure if anybody has ever told you this but I feel it needs to be said and I'm sorry if it offends you.

sorry...

[rainbow]YOU ARE AMAZING!!!!!![/rainbow]

[Anachron]

Shouldn't this to to the Jass Submittion Thread?

 

[Element of Water]

This was ages ago, as you would know if you'd have looked at the original post's date. Some necromancer revived it and now people are treating it like a new thread. Stop it. I don't want anything to do with wc3 any more.
