Openrct2: Feature suggestion: Konami code easter egg

Created on 5 Aug 2017  路  4Comments  路  Source: OpenRCT2/OpenRCT2

There has been a big history of games, programs, sites, devices, implementing the konami code as an easter egg. I feel it would be pretty cool to do the same, I'm not sure what the function would do exactly, that would be up for debate.

My suggestion was originally going to be opening a link to a rick roll, but considering it may be blocked in some countries, this could be a good alternate. Especially with it being rct related.

The input handling for such a code (tracking keystrokes and such) would not be simple, particularly given that people can set up keyboard shortcuts. That aside, I just don't think this is something I think the game needs.

@rwjuk peeps rename "cheat" might be a better solution, since that's how the original easter eggs are triggered

@rwjuk I mean as far as shortcuts, all you'd have to do is listen to the arrows and then if it's sequenced "up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right" within a short time, then ignore the following keystroke "b" and "a", unless the next one is not "b" or a long enough delay occurs. This was more less just a random thought, i probably should have actually used the forums for that though..

@Patrik356b If that was the case, I think it'd have to be "uuddlrlrba" or "uuddlrlrbass" if that fits. and the guest would dismiss unsafe ride thoughts with "good thing i have 30 lives!".

that would be good for plugin, not default function.
