Source Engine:Flash

Most of the thread has been people complaining about it...

The easy fix is to use a non-OEM-specific virtual keycode instead, like one of the function keys.

How about you just add a button on screen that opens console. (give it a ~ symbol)

It took me like 20 minutes to make a key mapping system in flash to use in my games, it's really simple.

Just have variables that contain the keyCodes of the whatever and have a little menu where you can press a button to record a keyCode for a certain thing.

example:

var jumpKeyCode:Number = 12;
var suicideKeyCode:Number = 53;

var jumpKeyDown:Boolean = false;
var suicideKeyDown:Boolean = false;

public function keydown(e:KeyboardEvent){
	switch(e.keyCode){
		case jumpKeyCode: jumpKeyDown = true; break;
		case suicideKeyCode: suicideKeyDown = true; break;
	}
}

public function keyup(e:KeyboardEvent){
	switch(e.keyCode){
		case jumpKeyCode: jumpKeyDown = false; break;
		case suicideKeyCode: suicideKeyDown = false; break;
	}
}

Then just have a menu where you change value of jumpKeyCode, etcetera to whatever the use pressed after they clicked the record/set button.
jumpKeyCode = e.keyCode;

And if you want it to display the actual name of the key to the user instead of just the keyCode; i found an array on the internet (had to fix it up a bit) which had the name of each key in the position of it's keyCode (e.g "Spacebar" has a key code of 32 so it's 32 in the array).
Not sure if there's a better way to do it in Flash but if you don't mind a 256 so long array; it'll do.

var keynames:Array = ["0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","Backspace","Tab","10","11","Center","Enter","14","15","Shift","Control","Alt","Pause","Caps Lock","21","22","23","24","25","26","ESC","28","29"  ,"30","31","Space","Page Up","Page Down","End","Home","Left","Up","Right","Down","41","42","43","44","Insert","Delete","47","0","1","2","3","4","5","6","7","8","9","58","59","60","61","62","63","64","A","B","C","D","E","F","G","H","I","J","K","L","M","N","O","P","Q","R","S","T","U","V","W","X","Y","Z","Windows","Windows","Menu","94","95","Num 0","Num 1","Num 2","Num 3","Num 4","Num 5","Num 6","Num 7","Num 8","Num 9","Num *","Num +","108","Num -","Num .","Num /","F1","F2","F3","F4","F5","F6","F7","F8","F9","F10","F11","F12","124","125","126","127","128","129","130","131","132","133","134","135","136","137","138","139","140","141","142","143","Num Lock","Scroll Lock","146","147","148","149","150","151","152","1  53","154","155","156","157","158","159","160","161","162","163","164","165","166","167","168","169","170","171","172","173","174","175","176","177","178","179","180","181","182","183","184","185",";","+",",","-",".","/","~","193","194","195","196","197","198","199","200","201","202","203","204","205","206","207","208","209","210","211","212","213","214","215","216","217","218","[","\\","]","'","223","224","225","226","227","228","229","230","231","232","233","234","235","236","237","238","239","240","241","242","243","244","245","246","247","248","249","250","251","252","253","254","255"];

Can never go wrong with this.

Looks so uncomfortable, but at the same time so comfy.

Have to try one of these at least once in my life.

Soo, any progress?

Yeah, you made a thread Geel saying you were working on this, how far have you come? If you stopped developing it, next time don't make a thread at 0.5% completion, and then stop.

It's Geel we're talking about here so....

I thought it was pretty cool, I like source and flash, and I was sad to see it what stopped being developed.

There are plenty of people who model their engines off source (me being one), this is hardly unique.

I stopped developing it because I realized I didn't have the experience to do so and because I was met with 100% hostility; what's the point?
