## Running code on the client
|

Mods always run on the server, and not on the client. While there is a client modding API (with client-side mods, CSMs), they are very limited and require to be manually installed. The concept of SSCSM (Server-sent client side modding) would solve this but has not been fully implemented yet.

There is no way to check arbitrary keys in the scripting API. You are limited to the existing keybinds that are available in `get_player_control`. Aux1 is a generic keybind that you could give a custom use for.
