Binding an action to a release of a button? SOLVED

[tim640]

Good evening all!
Been a while since i've posted. I realized something a bit weird while binding stuff to gamepad keys, that technically should work but doesn't for some reason
The concrete situation is this: i have a "SKIP" function on the left CTRL keyboard button. When i press it, SKIP happens, when i release it - it stops. So i want the same happening on the gamepad - in particular, i want to press the left trigger so the SKIP would start, and when the trigger is released, SKIP stops. So i added this in "options" to the list of my keymap:

Code: Select all

    config.pad_bindings["pad_lefttrigger_neg"].append("stop_skipping")
    config.pad_bindings["pad_lefttrigger_pos"].append("skip")

Which seems like the right thing as the manual here says at the end https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/keymap.html

However, it gives me an error on start:

Code: Select all

I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

While running game code:
  File "game/options.rpy", line 165, in script
    init python:
  File "game/options.rpy", line 205, in <module>
    config.pad_bindings["pad_lefttrigger_neg"].append("stop_skipping")
KeyError: u'pad_lefttrigger_neg'

The trigger works well with SKIP, just doesn't stop when i release it, unlike CTRL
But trying to set the "releasing" of it leaves me with this error. Any ideas?.. Thank you in advance!!

UPD: oops, solved it!

Turns out i had to create the event for the trigger release as well. Solution, for anyone wondering, was

Code: Select all

 config.pad_bindings["pad_lefttrigger_pos"].append("skip")
    if not 'pad_lefttrigger_zero' in config.pad_bindings:
        config.pad_bindings["pad_lefttrigger_zero"] = []
        config.pad_bindings["pad_lefttrigger_zero"].append("stop_skipping")
