Thanks but my idea is like "press any key to continue"

[KAKAN]

there you go:

Code Select Expand

anykey <- array(100, false);
function onPlayerJoin( player ){
player.Msg( "Press any key to continue.");
anykey[ player.ID ] = true;
}

function onKeyDown( player, key ){
if( anykey[ player.ID ] ){
player.Msg( "YOU PRESSED 'ANY' KEY, SO SMD!" );
anykey[ player.ID ] = false; // or he'll keep getting the threatening messages.
}

Sorry for posting the wrong post but after finding the required function I will delete the post.
Is there any function similar to getch () in C ++?

you wanted any key to continue. So, what, are you going to loop over all keys? I've provided a very easy example to follow, it's in squirrel. Look up. The topic's discussion ends here

I doubt that example will work. The onKeyDown event will probably (I didn't test) only be called for keys that were binded.

So no, unless you're going to bind to all keys (Which is a bad idea) this isn't possible.

My antivirus wouldn't mark VCMP as a "KeyLogger" if it did what you said so.

just founded this on google

^ This is probably what you need.

Of course it would. There's a difference between logging it and calling an event.

From my point of view, VCMP captures all the keybinds even if we have only one key to capture.
According to you, Discord( push-to-talk ) should be marked as a KeyLogger as well, but it isn't.

KeyLogger means something else than just binding a single key.

Read my reply again. I'm not saying the client isn't listening for all keys, I'm saying the client will only send it's key statuses when it's binded to the server. Otherwise the bandwidth will be way too high.

There is no reason to use serverside keybinds since we have clientside one. So we can use bandwidth wisely.
Simple example:

Code Select Expand

vito_keys <- {
"as_array" : []
"by_id" : {},
"binds" : {}
};
vito_keys.as_array = [];
for(local i = 0; i < 300; i++){
vito_keys.as_array.push([i.tostring(), i]);
}
foreach(vito_key in ::vito_keys.as_array){
::vito_keys.by_id.rawset(vito_key[1], vito_key[0]);
};
foreach(vito_key in ::vito_keys.as_array){
::vito_keys.binds.rawset(vito_key[0],[KeyBind(vito_key[1]), vito_key[1], vito_key[0]]);
};
function KeyBind::OnDown(keybind) {
foreach(vito_keybind_key, vito_keybind in ::vito_keys.binds){
if(vito_keybind[0] == keybind){
::Console.Print("keydown key_id="+vito_keybind[1]+" key_name="+vito_keybind[2]);
}
}
}
