IInput is a client interface that packages user input from keyboards, mice and joysticks/gamepads into usercmds for transmission to the server. It also handles third-person cameras.
Conventionally, each type of supported peripheral has its own CPP file. Valve's CInput interface implementation is in in_main.cpp (for usercmd packaging and keyboard), in_mouse.cpp and in_joystick.cpp.
Minimum implementation
static CInput g_Input;
IInput* input = (IInput*)&g_Input;
Bug:Although your mod will compile fine if you bypass creating the g_Input object, you may encounter bizarre errors (including the world not rendering and a cursor that is re-centred every frame) when launching with a debugger attached! [todo tested in ?]See also
