Key Table


Input from the Keyboard, or any other user interface device used by HCGE, is mapped to the "Key State Table". As its name suggests, it is a table of values that represent the state of Keyboard Keys, Buttons, and any other supported form of input.

For Keyboard Keys and Buttons, two state types exist:


The "KeyCodes" below correspond with the given input states, and can be used to test these states within "Status Scripts", "Player Events", or Script Functions that use the input-test "If" Commands.

These are "Raw Keycodes", meaning that each test against these codes tests the key state directly, and to change the keypress assigned to certain events, each test has to be updated with the new keycode. The easiest way to manage this is to apply these codes to Key Maps, so that only the map entry needs to be updated. This also allows for testing different Maps at different times, such as Player 1 and Player 2 using different keys to activate the same Movement Modes and Functions.

There are three different state table layouts used for different platforms:

  • PC/Mac
  • PSP
  • Wii
