input commands processing flow of Torque 3D V2.0

#1 Relevant code will be found in moveManager.cpp, gameConnection.cpp and default.binds.cs

Essentially there are several global script variables exposed by MoveManager that represent various movement states (e.g. forward, backward, left, right, jumping, firing, etc.). The values of these global variables are queried every 32ms, 'packed' into a 'Move' object and sent to the server by the GameConnection class. This all occurs in the engine (C++).

On the script side, default.binds.cs defines several script functions that modify the movement globals (e.g. the moveforward() function sets $mvForwardAction to a value if the player is moving forward). These functions are then bound to a key (moveforward() is bound to 'W' by default, I believe).

So, whenever the player presses a movement key, the appropriate global var is changed, the engine reads the value of the global variable, packs it into a 'Move' object and sends it to the server every 32ms.
