|
|
I am having an extremely odd problem with plotscripting.
The "key is pressed" command does not respond to key #76 -- numpad 5. Toggling numlock makes no difference, and the key works in my word processor.
Code: | if(key is pressed(76)) then (
clear string(TEMP_MESSAGE)
append number(TEMP_MESSAGE, 76)
insert new message(TEMP_MESSAGE)
) |
This is only one test I made for this. Key 76 is just one in a number of keys I want to monitor, and I have a script that returned the key # of whichever key is being pressed. I originally had the program display the # of whichever key was being pressed, but key #76 was the only one that was having problems.
I am uncertain as to which OHR version I am using (don't have it installed on the library computer). It is no later than the last official release, and no earlier than this August.
I will download the latest and see if it works.[/code] |

So all other keys work with similar code?
Also, the OHR has no respect for numlock. :( |

I used last Monday's nightly and the problem persisted.
Yeah; I haven't had this problem with any other key -- certainly not any of the other numpad keys.
I will start a new project and see if the problem happens with that. Otherwise... |

Okay: I ran a test and this is what I got.
Code: |
include, plotscr.hsd
define script, begin
1, test, 0
end
script, test, begin
while(true) do (
wait(1)
if(key is pressed(76)) then ( game over )
if(key is pressed(72)) then ( game over )
)
end
|
Using a new file (with Monday's nightly) I used the above code as the "new game script". Pressing key 72 (numpad 8 ) caused the game to end. Pressing key 76 did nothing.[/code] |

Numpad 5 works for me on this computer, as well as every other key (except those which are broken - I have 5+ spare PS/2 keyboards and should be using one of those instead). The OHR doesn't perform any mapping or anything between the FB scancode checking functions. Try out the gfx_sdl backend and see if that works. It uses totally different scancodes, which are mapped to the OHR native ones.
Code: | include, plotscr.hsd
include, scancode.hsi
plotscript, main, begin
showstringat (30, 0, 190)
while (1) do (
variable (i)
for (i, 0, 93) do (
if (keyval(i)) then ($30="", appendnumber(30,i), appendascii(30,32), append number (30, keyval(i)))
)
wait
)
end |
