 In Oni you can do some scripting with the developer console.
-We probably should also allow for some manipulations of functions and variables like '''''ai2_chump''''' and '''''chr_debug_characters = 1'''''.
+We probably should also allow to call functions and set some variables like '''''ai2_chump''''' and '''''chr_debug_characters = 1'''''.
-This requires a user widget and a key binding which will be ^ by default.
+This requires a user widget and a key binding which will be # + Alt by default.
-The = sign and spaces serves as separator. A select node can then link to the individual variables.
+: The ^ sign is a bad choice as it is not consumed and will be added to the first character, making âi2_chump an invalid command.
+: The dev console will not require a cheat in order to activate it on key press. While developing this '''''test''''' it won't make sense to restrict its access.
+The widget is created by the player controller and attached to the viewport.
+Alt + # will toggle the visibility and makes the input box ready for typing.
+The text box has a On Text Committed where inputs can be processed.
+'''Clear Keyboard Focus on Commit''' was set to '''False''' in order to allow repetitive input.
+Todo: Use = sign and spaces as separator and a select node to handle the different variables and functions.
