cheat

The `cheat` library provides core functions for managing script execution, callbacks, and global state.

Methods

cheat.register(eventName, function)

Registers a function to be called when a specific event occurs. This is the foundation of event-driven scripting in Sertonin.

Parameters:

• eventName: string - The name of the event to hook into.

• function: function - The function to be executed when the event fires.

Available Events:

Event Name	Description
onUpdate	Fired at a very high frequency (~5ms). Ideal for game logic and fast loops.
onSlowUpdate	Fired at a low frequency (~1s). Ideal for non-critical background tasks.
onPaint	Fired every rendering frame. All drawing must be done here.

Example:

local function my_paint_function()
    draw.rect(10, 10, 50, 50, 255, 255, 255, 255)
end

-- Tell the engine to call our function every frame
cheat.register("onPaint", my_paint_function)

---

cheat.getWindowSize()

Returns the width and height of the main game window in pixels.

Returns:

• width: number - The width of the window.

• height: number - The height of the window.

local screen_w, screen_h = cheat.getWindowSize()

-- Calculate the center of the screen
local center_x = screen_w / 2
local center_y = screen_h / 2

-- Draw a crosshair at the center
draw.line(center_x - 10, center_y, center_x + 10, center_y, 255, 255, 255, 255, 1)
draw.line(center_x, center_y - 10, center_x, center_y + 10, 255, 255, 255, 255, 1)
