not about hotkey.
I want do something about keyboard , e.g. press spaceBar to jump or VK_W to go along.
and i noticed that there are some functions in "main.lua", such as "doKeyPress()", "keyDown()" . but do not know how to use it. Can you paste any example here?

| Code: | | doKeyPress(VK_W) -- presses the 'w' key |
See defines.lua for all the key codes.

You're probably not doing it right.
| Code: | | hk = createHotkey(function() doKeyPress(VK_W) end, VK_Q) |
Run this code. Any time you press q, CE will press w as well.

"doKeyPress(VK_W)" needs my gamewindow to be foreground , is it?

Yes. If you're currently using one program and press some keys on the keyboard, not all actively running programs will respond to those key presses. That would be chaotic and senseless.

Making keys work in the background with a controller should be fine (as in most cases, games would be the only ones using a controller).
Finding the code for controller key inputs, though, is a different story.

-It's as easy as finding anything else. If you want to be able to send input while the target isn't in focus, you'll have to search for those values with that in mind.
