injectEvent

Description

Injects an event into the program manually. For example, you could inject "w", "a", "s", and "d" for the worm game by clicking buttons.

Parameters

string event
boolean if this is true, the injected event will be executed even if the program is paused
any ... parameters

Returns

object The object in use

Usage

Inject an event by clicking a button

local basalt = require("basalt")

local mainFrame = basalt.createFrame()
local aProgram = mainFrame:addProgram():execute("rom/programs/shell.lua")

local function injectEventOnClick()
    aProgram:injectEvent("char", false, "w")
end

mainFrame:addButton()
  :setText("Inject W")
  :onClick(injectEventOnClick)

In this example, a Program object is created, added to the mainFrame, and the "rom/programs/shell.lua" script is executed. A button is then added to the mainFrame that, when clicked, injects the "char" event with a parameter of "w" into the Program.
