Fakemeta way:

Code:

static button
button = pev(id,pev_button)
 
if(button & IN_USE)
{
     //do something
}

To check if button is pressed:

Code:

public plugin_init()
{
    register_forward(FM_CmdStart, "fwd_CmdStart");
}

public fwd_CmdStart(id, uc_handle, seed)
{
    new buttons = get_uc(uc_handle, UC_Buttons);
    if(buttons & IN_USE)
    {
        //do something...
    }
}

But i dunno how to check when the key is released.
*edit* Greenberet have the better version..0o *edit*

alka isnt far away.
fakemeta:

Code:

public plugin_init()
{
    register_forward(FM_PlayerPreThink, "prethink")
}

public prethink( id )
{
     static button,oldbuttons; 
     button = pev( id, pev_button ); 
     oldbuttons = pev( id, pev_oldbuttons ); 
     if(button & IN_USE && !(oldbuttons & IN_USE)) 
     {
           // +use 
     } else if( oldbuttons & IN_USE && !(button & IN_USE)) 
     {
          // -use 
     }
}

@regalis
your version has the problem that +use will allways be executed as long as it got pressed

BIG THX TO ALL FOR HELP... thx Greenberet

but i how to get rid of that warning message

Warning: Loose indentation on line 15

public plugin_init() {
register_plugin(PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR)
// Add your code here...
register_forward(FM_PlayerPreThink, "prethink",0) //LINE 15 (WARNING)
}
public prethink( id )
{
static button,oldbuttons;
button = pev( id, pev_button );
oldbuttons = pev( id, pev_oldbuttons );
if(button & IN_USE && !(oldbuttons & IN_USE))
{
console_print(id,"USE DOWN");
} else if( oldbuttons & IN_USE && !(button & IN_USE))
{
console_print(id,"USE UP");
}
}

You have to indent your code properly.

Code:

public plugin_init() 
{
    register_plugin( PLUGIN, VERSION, AUTHOR );
    register_forward( FM_PlayerPreThink, "prethink",0 );
}

public prethink( id )
{
    static button,oldbuttons; 
    button = pev( id, pev_button ); 
    
    oldbuttons = pev( id, pev_oldbuttons ); 
    
    if( button & IN_USE && !(oldbuttons & IN_USE) ) 
    {
        console_print( id,"USE DOWN"); 
    } 
    else if( oldbuttons & IN_USE && !( button & IN_USE ) ) 
    {
        console_print( id, "USE UP" );
    }
}
