Mouse position

dominx99

Hello,

Is it possible to fetch the mouse position without mouse event?

I know it is possible to emit on click position from client to server like this:

import { RpgSceneMapHooks, RpgSceneMap } from '@rpgjs/client'

const sceneMap: RpgSceneMapHooks = {
    onAfterLoading(scene: RpgSceneMap) {
        scene.on('click', (e) => {
            scene.game.clientEngine.socket.emit('shoot-bullet', e);
        });
    }
}

export default sceneMap;

But I would like to click skill button eg. 1 and then fetch mouse position and throw ball in place of mouse position.

I tried to play with:

Do you have tip how could I achieve that?

I successfully achieved what I needed.

On each mouse move I save the last mouse position client side.
When someone presses some key, then I send it to the backend information through the socket with the last mousePosition.

It does not work when a player joins the game and has not move the mouse yet, and also I don't know if it's efficient solution, but for now, it's sufficient for me:

import { RpgClient, RpgModule, RpgScene } from '@rpgjs/client'
import { PositionXY } from '@rpgjs/types';

let mousePosition: PositionXY = { x: 0, y: 0 };

/** @ts-ignore */
@RpgModule<RpgClient>({
    scenes: {
        map: {
            onAfterLoading(scene: RpgScene) {
                scene.on('mousemove', (pos: any) => {
                    mousePosition = { x: pos.x, y: pos.y };
                })
            }
        }
    },
    engine: {
        onInput(engine: RpgClientEngine, inputs: any) {
            inputs.forEach((input: any) => {
                    engine.getScene().game.clientEngine.socket.emit('key.pressed', {
                        input,
                        mousePosition
                    });
            });
        }
    }
})
export default class RpgClientEngine { }
