Computercraft 1.45 has rolled out and with it there are new functions!
One of the coolest features is the mouse support but sadly there is VERY little documentation of what you do to use it. In this tutorial I will show you how to use mouse support and give you a small sample code!
Here is the code
local event, button, X, Y = os.pullEvent("mouse_click") – Gets data for click(Like read() but for mice)
–X Quards and Y Quards
XY = X..","..Y – makes the mouse_click in X,Y format, other wise you have separate if statements for X and Y
if XY == "Position" then – Position is the Quards of were you want to click (X,Y format)
– Do Stuff
break – Stops program loop
end
end
Use Left and Right Click Differently
local event, button, X, Y = os.pullEvent("mouse_click")
XY = mouseX..","..mouseY
if XY == "Position" and button == 1 then –Button is what click; 1 or 2…1 is Left, 2 is Right
–Do Stuff for Left Click (ie run program)
break
end
if XY == "Position" and button == 2 then
– Do Stuff for Right Click
break
end
end
Here is a example program
print ("1.Option 1")
print ("2.Option 2")
print ("3.Option 3")
while true do
local event, button, X, Y = os.pullEvent("mouse_click")
XY = X..","..Y
if XY == "1,2" and button == 1 then
– Do stuff for Option 1- Left Click
break
end
if XY == "1,3" and button == 1 then
– Do stuff for Option 2- Left Click
break
end
if XY == "1,4" and button == 1 then
– Do stuff for Option 3- Left Click
break
end
if XY == "1,2" and button == 2 then
– Do stuff for Option 1- Right Click
break
end
if XY == "1,3" and button == 2 then
– Do stuff for Option 2- Right Click
break
end
if XY == "1,4" and button == 2 then
– Do stuff for Option 3- Right Click
break
end
end
