Question by enix93 · Mar 28, 2014 at 03:38 PM · c#input

How to make shortcuts using two keys

Hello everyone!

I'm currently working on a script that will handle some key shortcut. They have to be in like "ctrl + Key".

I already tried this solution found on the internet:

  void Update () {
     if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.LeftControl)&&Input.GetKey(KeyCode.A))
     {
         //Do something
     }

     if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.RightControl))
     {
         if (Input.GetKey(KeyCode.Z))
         {
             //Do something 
         }
         
     }

}

Apparently it works only if I push the two keys at the same time wich is not very convenient.

So I would like to know if there was any other way to do it so you could push the key one after another in a given order? (CTRL and A, and not A and CTRL).

I hope I made myself clear as english is not my native language.

Thank you by advance!

 bool wasKeyADown;
 
 void Update () {
 
     if(Input.GetKey(Keycode.LeftControl) && Input.GetKey(Keycode.A) && !wasKeyADown)
     {
         //Have a party
     }
 
     wasKeyADown = Input.GetKey(KeyCode.A);
 }

Thank you! When I first tried that didn't work, but I figured out that it was only because of the LeftControl $$anonymous$$ey. I tried with another one and it worked. Any idea why?

No problem :) This solution stores the last value of the 'A' key to make sure that it was pressed after the 'control' key, and not before.

Don't forget to mark my answer positive if it helped you out :)
