How to deactivate the keyboard via LUA

  • #1, by marvel 11 years ago Zitieren
    I have several key controls in my game. ESC opens a Menu, F5 the Save Games, F8 the Soundcontrol... and so on.

    Now I want to "block" all those keys while I'm in a specific menu by deactivating the keyboard in general. How to do so? smile

    This is completely untested on my part. Just a theoretical script.

    You need to create a condition somewhere. Call it: "keyboard_active" & set to true

    Now add this to the script section.
    function keyboardHandler(eventType, character, keycode, modifiers)
 if not Conditions["keyboard_active"].ConditionValue then
  return true
 else
  return false
 end
end
 
registerEventHandler("keyEvent", "keyboardHandler")


    To toggle keyboard on / off just change the condition value.

    Can you tell me what you mean by "Change the condition value"? smile

    By changing the condition I mentioned in step 1 to true or false? What else.... razz

    Ah, ok... so i need to change the value of the condition. ^^ "Condition value" was irritating.

    Same bloody thing! razz

    I suppose I could have said: "change the value of the condition" or I could have even said: "change the conditions value" or I could have said, what I already said. wink

    You say potato & I say patato!
