Scriptname GimmeGold Extends Input
{Free Gold Sir}

Function GiveMeGold()
if IsKeyPressed(86) == 1
	Game.GetPlayer().AddItem(Gold, 2, true)
endif
endFunction

 

but I'm getting these errors

1. 
    
   
2. Your script shouldn't extend Input, have it extend something else.
   
3. Import Input.
   
4. Create a property for gold.

Alright, I decided I wouldnt add an item, but just show a debug message. this is my current code, it compiles but it doesn't do anything in-game.

 

Scriptname MessageMe
{Playing around}

Import Input

function MsgMe()
if IsKeyPressed(0x57) == 1
	Debug.MessageBox("Success!")
endIf
endFunction

You realize that it would only work if you happen to be pressing the F11 key when you call the MsgMe() function right? Do you know how to call functions?

I didn't realize that. I've tried the code without a function, but I get an error. I've tried calling the function by using

 

MsgMe()

 

But that too just gives an error.

All code needs to be contained within functions or events. This is a working example of using IsKeyPressed:

 

Scriptname Example extends Quest

import Input

Event OnInit()
RegisterForSingleUpdate(0.1)
EndEvent

Event OnUpdate()
if (IsKeyPressed(0x57))
	Debug.MessageBox("You stopped the quest.")
	Stop()
else
	RegisterForSingleUpdate(0.1)
endif
EndEvent

Not sure whats wrong but even that won't work.

Dumb question, but can this only be done with SKSE?

Yes, but I have imported 'Input' which allows me to use the IsKeyPressed function.
