Player Info

DEPRECATED: Avoid using for new projects. This is bloated and does more than it should, and tried to overextend its functionality. It was written before I understood I shouldn't have written it. Instead, it would be better to create or find a player API that does only what you need it to.

For now, covers controls.

This includes:

  • controls copy themselves
  • just_pressed
  • just_released
  • since_released
  • since_pressed
player_info
  [player name]
    ctrl
    just_released
    just_pressed
    since_released
    since_pressed

player_info.get(player_ref)

Use this to get the player profile. This is the same as player_info.p[player_name] but you don't have to test for is_player.

ctrl

bool or nil

ctrl is just whether the control is pressed.

just_pressed

bool or nil

Is available for one step after you start pressing a key.

just_released

bool or nil

Is available for one step after you start letting go of a key.

since_pressed

number or nil

How long the player has been holding the key.

since_released

number or nil

How long it has been since the player released the key.
