feature request - a moves-list metadata entry for keyboard games

Issue #6994 new
חיים ביליה created an issue

hello jason,

in this forum thread, i mentioned how i want to work on a plugin for in-game button mapping.
but i need a database of moves list to be associated with each game.
it will be great if you can add these entries to be filled in the metadata database.

it need to have a “move name” with an associated key stroke.
for example:

Fly up = Numpad8
Fly down = Numpad2
Roll left = Numpad4
roll right = Numpad6

while the move names can be just plain text, the key strokes should probably be some unified format like ahk so it can be used easily when scripting. so probably best is to select it from a drop-down menu.

interested to know what you think.

    We’ve seen similar requests before but there isn’t any database built currently that describes what actions each game has (or what the default binding is for them) to be used in any project like this. You’d have to manually open each game and get the values which would be a chore to do for every game in our DB.
