Keybinding Syntax: K_UP + K_LEFT?

[noeinan]

I'm making a simple overworld map for my game and I would like to allow diagonal movement instead of just up/down/left/right. I've got images for my character sprite to accommodate the diagonals, I just haven't found how to use multiple keys in a keybind, when the second key isn't shift/ctrl/alt.

Code: Select all

        key "K_UP" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 0, -1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "back")]
        key "repeat_K_UP" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 0, -1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "back")]

#        key "K_UP" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, -1, -1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "dback_left")]
#        key "repeat_K_UP" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, -1, -1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "dback_left")]

#        key "K_UP" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 1, -1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "dback_right")]
#        key "repeat_K_UP" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 1, -1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "dback_right")]

        key "K_DOWN" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 0, 1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "front")]
        key "repeat_K_DOWN" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 0, 1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "front")]

#        key "K_DOWN" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, -1, 1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "dfront_left")]
#        key "repeat_K_DOWN" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, -1, 1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "dfront_left")]

#        key "K_DOWN" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 1, 1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "dfront_right")]
#        key "repeat_K_DOWN" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 1, 1), SetVariable("pc_dir", "dfront_right")]
        
        key "K_LEFT" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, -1, 0), SetVariable("pc_dir", "left")]
        key "repeat_K_LEFT" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, -1, 0), SetVariable("pc_dir", "left")]

        key "K_RIGHT" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 1, 0), SetVariable("pc_dir", "right")]
        key "repeat_K_RIGHT" action [Function(cMap.moveDenizen, pc_sprite.x, pc_sprite.y, 1, 0), SetVariable("pc_dir", "right")]

        key "K_RETURN" action Function(pcInteracts)

I've tried

Code: Select all

key "K_UP" and "K_LEFT" 

but that doesn't do anything.

Code: Select all

key ["K_UP", "K_LEFT"] 

errors out. I know for the default keymap there are lists like this

Code: Select all

rollback = [ 'K_PAGEUP', 'repeat_K_PAGEUP', 'K_AC_BACK', 'mousedown_4' ]

But that doesn't seem to apply to the key statement. (And those lists are alternates, not pressing both at the same time.) Anybody know the right syntax for this?

How to write a few letters per action. It is possible with shifta, viola, but with ctrl does not work. config.keymap = dict ( if shift screenshot = ['shift_B'] if alt screenshot = ['alt_B'] in keymap00 renpaya ctrl is used only here: skip = ['K_LCTRL', 'K_RCTRL'] ) Remove button value config.keymap ['function']. remove ('keyboard_key') Record button value config.keymap ['function']. append ('key combination')

Ren'Py's key input handling doesn't support multiple keys. You'd probably want to sue a CDD to keep track of what keys have been pressed down, and then do some kind of logic on it.
