If possible how do I check if the player in a game used the scroll thing on the mouse?

Here is just a really easy quick example of how to use the dbMouseZ command.

+ Code Snippet

#include "DarkGDK.h"
int mousez;
void DarkGDK(void)
{
	dbSyncOn();
	dbSyncRate(60);
	while (LoopGDK())
	{
		dbCLS();
		mousez = dbMouseZ();
		dbText(10,10,dbStr(mousez));
		dbSync();
	}
	return;
}

Just a note: If u use dbMouseMoveZ it will reset after calling it.

So

dbMouseMoveZ()
// code
dbMouseMoveZ()

would return for example 120, then on the next call in the same loop it will be 0.

Keep it simple.

I'm sorry i did a bad job explaining. What i mean is how do i check if the player used the scroll button on their mouse. Like a lot of FPSs for a computer use the scroll button to change weapons.
