Mouse events in keymaps?

[Ivo Georgiev]

Can I check if mouse right button is pressed instead of space is pressed in a keymap.That is a part of a keymap:

Code: Select all

 keyMap[8].Action = EKA_JUMP_UP;
      keyMap[8].KeyCode = KEY_SPACE ;

And I wanna check if mouse right button is pressed, instead of KEY_SPACE pressed.I've tryed this way:

Code: Select all

keyMap[8].KeyCode = EMIE_RMOUSE_LEFT_UP;

And also this way:

Code: Select all

keyMap[8].MouseEvent = EMIE_LMOUSE_LEFT_UP;

But neither of them worked...HELP, PLEASE

No, it only handles key events. I agree that's not ideal. You'll have to write a custom event receiver and handle mouse events explicitly. See examples 4, 5, 9, 11, 12, and the Demo example.

Okay, but is there a way to call jump action?

I'm not sure, because I didn't try this, but there are this key codes:

KEY_LBUTTON
KEY_RBUTTON
KEY_MBUTTON

aren't they for the mouse buttons ???


EDIT: ok, I tried it and it doesn't work...
but what are these key codes for ???
That's strange, because in keycodes.h they are defined for the mouse buttons:

00013 KEY_LBUTTON = 0x01, // Left mouse button
00014 KEY_RBUTTON = 0x02, // Right mouse button
00015 KEY_CANCEL = 0x03, // Control-break processing
00016 KEY_MBUTTON = 0x04, // Middle mouse button (three-button mouse)

Key and mouse events are handled differently (for one thing, mouse events have a position). Note that CCameraFPSSceneNode::OnEvent() only handles EET_KEY_INPUT_EVENT events.

I suppose if you're dead set on using CCameraFPSSceneNode() then you could create your own event handler, translate mouse events into appropriate key events, and then pass them on by calling myFPSCameraSceneNode->OnEvent(translatedEvent).

My camera instance is "camera"
The code I've tryed for calling the "space" button is

Code: Select all

camera->OnEvent(KEY_SPACE);

But I am a noob and I am getting something wrong again

Then you should do something right.

a short look at the api discovers that OnEvent doesn't take a key code like you did, but an event (SEvent) !!!

Come on chaps, play nice.

Code: Select all

SEvent keyEvent= {0};
keyEvent.EventType = EET_KEY_INPUT_EVENT;
keyEvent.KeyInput.Key = KEY_SPACE;
camera->OnEvent(keyEvent);
