🎒 Examples

Client/Index.lua

-- Registers the binding_name 'SpawnMenu' with default key 'Q'
-- This will add 'SpawnMenu' to user KeyBinding Settings automatically
Input.Register("SpawnMenu", "Q")

-- Subscribes for Pressing the key
Input.Bind("SpawnMenu", InputEvent.Pressed, function()
    -- Opens the Spawn Menu
end)

-- Subscribes for Releasing the key
Input.Bind("SpawnMenu", InputEvent.Released, function()
    -- Closes the Spawn Menu
end)

(Input.GetModifierKeys) Checks if has Shift pressed

local modifier_keys = Input.GetModifierKeys()
local has_shift_pressed = modifier_keys & KeyModifier.LeftShiftDown
-- Outputs "true"
