radio & scripts, and my keyboard
« on: 16 Apr 2003, 00:41:52 »
  :) Ellöw, all.

Did anyone of yer ever wondered if it's possible to (via scrolls) detect when/if a keyboard button is in use?

Off course, the OFP engine can detect if actual buttons are pushed ( ::) ) but I wuz wondering if it can be set to detect if I use a specific radio/action button ( = some code is activated within the OFP engine, right?) ???


 :D sounds mad, Tombs' gone crazy again? prolly yeah but here's what I'm after :


Instead of some "addAction" call for support (or any map clicking etc.) I wanna be able to call for support when I press the "WHERE ARE YOU"-button ( #5 on my keyboard).  8)

BUT.... only if all my fella troopers are wasted (regardless to wether I am leader or not).

I also have some other things in mind for this, but I thought I might ask here first before thowing my empty head into the void of tombish contemplation and thinking (which most times happens on my sofa btw).  ::)  ;D


 ??? Should I skip the 'button' stuff and just use regular conditions & loops or what?!

Well, basically I'd like to see some interaction between my default RADIO #keys and the various scripts in my missions. And this is one example of that (at a very rough stage, in fact so rough that it just came to me)  :-X ::)

Is this possible... activating scripts via the various radio keys if this & that cond. is true?  :)


P.S.   yes, I know we have the "001", "002" etc. radio keys.... thats not it.
