Virtual Keys

Introduction

Virtual keys acts as an intermediary between physical controls and controls registered in the game. Keyboard, mouse, and game controllers can all be mapped to a single "virtual key" and perform the same action.

Mutually Exclusive Virtual Keys

Mutually exclusive virtual keys are other keys that cannot run at the same time as the current key. This prevents overlaps in behavior.
