provide input-demoseeking.cfg script for compatibility

[xonotic/xonotic-data.pk3dir.git] / demoseeking.cfg

// Provides a seekdemo alias that allows fast-forwarding demo playback by a
// given time.
//
// Setup:
//
// Add "exec input-demoseeking.cfg" and the following cl_hook_gamestart_all
// hook to autoexec.cfg. If you already have a cl_hook_gamestart_all hook, add
// the quoted command to your hook, separated with a semicolon:
//
//     exec demoseeking.cfg
//     alias cl_hook_gamestart_all "demoseeking_game_started"
//
// Usage:
//     1. start a demo (ply/playdemo command or menu), and
//     2. while in a demo, use the "seekdemo <seconds>" command
//
// Alternatively, use input-demoseeking.cfg instead to restore the default
// bindings:
//
//     * use ,. (comma and dot) keys to seek -5/+5 seconds
//     * use m/ (m and slash) keys to seek -30/+30 seconds
//     * - (minus) also works instead of slash
//
// Options (persisted):
//
// _demoseeking_min_speed
//     Minimum seek speed. Default 1.5.
// _demoseeking_max_speed
//     Maximum seek speed. Default 200. Reduce this if the client freezes too
//     much while seeking. If the framerate is still high while seeking, you
//     may increase this, but increasing this with low framerate is unlikely to
//     improve seek performance.
//
// Variables:
//
// _demo_is_playing
//     Indicates whether a demo is currently playing. Set to 1 when playdemo
//     starts a demo.
//     Note: the setup above is needed to reset this reliably.
// _current_demo_name
//     The name of the latest played demo. Same as the argument passed to the
//     last playdemo command. If playdemo fails to start the demo (e.g. when
//     the file does not exist) this variable is not updated.
//     Note: the setup above is needed to reset this reliably.
// _demoseeking_is_seeking
//     1 while a seek is in progress, 0 otherwise.
//
// Extras:
//
// - The alias playdemo_hook is run when demo playback is started.
// - The alias seekdemo_hook_seek_end is run after a seek completed successfully.
// - The alias seekdemo_getseektime can be used by scripts to get the current
//   playback time or seek target time. See its usage below.
