Hi.
I usually use the keyDownScript and have a "focus manager" object send off
an event to the appropriate sprite.
eg
on startMovie
...
the keyDownScript = "mHandleKeyDown(gFocusMgr)"
end
and in the parent script
on mHandleKeyDown me
-- relevant sprites subscribe/remove themselves themselves
call(#mKeyDown, mySpritesWithFocus, the key, the keyCode)
end
The keyDownScript is useful because it gets the event first, and passes the
event by default.
