Anyway to check when a player leans

[IIIXJokerXIII 2]

I need a way to check if a player is leaning left or right or an event/trigger when a player leans left or right. I've search for a way to do this for a few weeks now but no luck. If anyone has any ideas will you please help point me in the right direction   

The reason I'm trying to do this I would to make it so when a player leans left or right it will force camera view from "EXTERNAL" to switch camera "INTERNAL". Again thanks for any help on this!!!

 

Things I've looked at animationState but that didn't work.

Maybe there is a way to see when a player does this? but I know some users use custom keys so I'm not sure how to go this way.  I'm so lost on this one lol  
keyLeanLeft[]={16};
keyLeanRight[]={18};
keyLeanLeftToggle[]={272};
keyLeanRightToggle[]={274};

I dunno about detecting if player leaned left or right already but you could do a loop with waitUntil for inputAction leanLeft/Right and also LeanLeft/RightToggle.

As you already have the KeyCodes, why not use this, 

something like 

mk = (findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown", "
	if ((_this select 1) in [16,18,272,274] ) then {
	hint "Do Stuff";
	};
"];

Same goes for 'KeyUp'. Not quite sure if it is '_this select 1' or an other one.

Thank you so much you all lead me in the right direction.  I need to get you guys a beer!    This is the base part of my code here but on mine I have it to force INTERNAL for other things like freelook and stuff.

[] spawn {
	while {vehicle player == player} do {
		if ((inputAction "LeanLeft" > 0) || (inputAction "LeanRight" > 0) || (inputAction "LeanLeftToggle" > 0) || (inputAction "LeanRightToggle" > 0)) then {
			XMCPV_PlayerCombatModeTimer = 120;
			while {XMCPV_PlayerCombatModeTimer  > 0} do {
				if (vehicle player == player && cameraView == "External") then {player switchCamera "Internal";};
				XMCPV_PlayerCombatModeTimer  = XMCPV_PlayerCombatModeTimer  - 1;
				if ((inputAction "LeanLeft" > 0) || (inputAction "LeanRight" > 0) || (inputAction "LeanLeftToggle" > 0) || (inputAction "LeanRightToggle" > 0)) then {
					XMCPV_PlayerCombatModeTimer = 120;
				};
				uisleep 0.10;
			};
		};
		uisleep 0.10;
	};
};

Oh right, I forgot about that little exploit. Good idea!

I would recommend, using an approach with Eventhandlers , therefor you don't stress the scheduler.

Not sure how I would go about eventhandlers with inputAction but if you have an idea to get me started I will see what I can come up with 

[crewt 31]

mk = (findDisplay 46) displayAddEventHandler ["KeyDown", "
    params [""_ctrl"", ""_dikCode"", ""_shift"", ""_ctrlKey"", ""_alt""];
    if (!_shift && !_ctrlKey && !_alt) then {
        if (_dikCode in [16,18,272,274]) then {
               Systemchat ""you shall not buguse"";
        };
    };
"];

Here you go, this should trigger every time someone is leaning left or right, not sure about the other two dikCodes you provided (272 , 274). General, the system doen't constantly wait and keeps checking what the player is doing.

 

 

(But it's late, there might be a typo somewhere in it)
