Events are associated with each of the eBot sensors, eBot peripherals, GamePads and our PageEvent Buttons. Events are used to start a function i.e your own code snippet.
PageEvent Buttons
PageEvent Buttons are created on the Event Buttons Tab. When your code is running you can trigger that event by clicking on that event button. This is similiar to how you would use physical buttons on a robot for example to start your main code or make a type of remote control page.
You can't name Event Buttons starting with "Button" because eBot has a physical push button that is called "Button" and it has as an event called "Button".
Syntax:
eventsEbot.addEventListener('ButtonName', function() {
// your code
})Example:
eBot Events
Syntax:
eventsEbot.addEventListener('event', function() {
// your code
})
// note that you can only use those events for which you have the hardware eg if you don't have an RFID sensor then you can't use RFID events.

GamePad Events
Xbox & T3
Events are associated with each GamePad input i.e. button, trigger, D-pad and Joystick. Events are used to start a function i.e your own code snippet (see example below).
Syntax:
eventsGamepad1.addEventListener('input', function() {
// your code
})
// use eventsGamepad1 or eventsGamepad2
input: 'Y Button', 'B Button', 'A Button', 'X Button', 'D-Pad Left', 'D-Pad Right', 'D-Pad Up', 'D-Pad Down', 'Left Top Button', 'Left Bottom Button', 'Right Top Button', 'Right Bottom Button', 'Start', 'Select/Back', 'LHS Joystick Button', 'LHS Joystick Left', 'LHS Joystick Right', 'LHS Joystick Up', 'LHS Joystick Down', 'LHS Joystick No Input', 'RHS Joystick Button', 'RHS Joystick Left', 'RHS Joystick Right', 'RHS Joystick Up', 'RHS Joystick Down', 'RHS Joystick No Input'Example:
