Binding custom keys to perform action

[Ni3ls]

This is how it is done in the plane & tank mod.

		self execClientCmd("bind m openscriptmenu -1 m");
self waittill("key_m"); 
	

		monitorExKeys()
{
    self endon( "intermission" );
    self endon("disconnect");

    if( isDefined( self.monitorExtraKeys ) )
        return;
    self.monitorExtraKeys = true;
    wait (1);
    if( !isDefined( self )  )
        return;
    
    while( isDefined( self )  )
    {
        self waittill("menuresponse", menu, response);

        if(  menu == "-1" && isAlive( self ) && response.size == 1 )
        {
            self notify( "key_" + response );
        }
    }
} 
	

(run on each player)

But you can also use the supported keys by libcod e.g. space, left/right/up (forward)/down (back) arrows, lean left/right (Q/E) and aim button (left mouse).

This monitors every key you press right?

This monitors every key you press right?

Every key that you bind with 'bind [insert key] openscriptmenu -1 [insert key]'.

Edit: the libcod keys you need to keep checking in a loop like the use / melee functions.
