Mouse wheel

by Erik Madison · in Torque Game Engine · 10/30/2002 (5:57 pm) · 4 replies

Anyone know how to use the mouse wheel in the scripts? I'd like to bind my next/previous weapon commands to it, and I can't figure out what to call it.

You need to use Tim Newell's inventory manager to get it to work. Atleast to do it in the example below. I didn't use the mouse wheel I binded the cycling to keys but i'm sure it works.

This is the tutorial I used by Tim.

I just add this to default.binds

moveMap.bind( mouse, zaxis, yourfunctionhere );

Then add it to the config.cs in your client folder as well, all works fine..

I just wrote a new "tutorial" thats much simplier and implements the inventory in script only. Also it should work in multiplayer. You can find it here

Thanks :) All I needed was to know the wheel was considered the zaxis. I already have working next and previous commands.
