Controls Reference

Find any GTA V control index by number, INPUT_ name or key, press a real key to see every control on it, and copy detect, disable or RegisterKeyMapping code.

Diese Doku ist vorerst auf Englisch.

Open the tool Last updated

The Controls Reference lists all 361 GTA V controls (index 0 to 360) with their INPUT_ name, default keyboard key and default gamepad button. Press a key on your keyboard or controller to see every control bound to it, then copy a snippet to detect it, disable it, or replace it with your own key mapping.

What it is for

IsControlJustPressed(0, 51) means nothing until you know 51 is INPUT_CONTEXT on E. And E is also INPUT_PICKUP, INPUT_TALK, INPUT_VEH_HORN and more, depending on what the player is doing. This page answers “what index is that key” and “what else uses this key” before you pick one for your script.

Quick start

  1. Search by index (51), name (CONTEXT, veh exit) or key (E, LEFT SHIFT). Searching for a single letter or two looks up the key, not names.
  2. Or click Press a key to find it and press the real key. Click Stop listening when done.
  3. Click a row. The detail panel (right side on desktop, inline on phones) shows the bindings and snippets. Before you click anything it shows control 51.
  4. Pick the Input group, a snippet tab, and copy the code.

Filters

Control What it does
Search box Index, INPUT_ name, name words or key. Exact index and key matches rank first.
Group dropdown On foot, Camera, Weapons, Melee, Vehicle, Aircraft, Submarine, Bicycle, Parachute, Phone, Frontend, Cursor & map, Script, Multiplayer, Replay editor, Creator. Each shows a count.
Device chips All, Keyboard / mouse (has a keyboard default), Gamepad only, No default.
Copy link Copies a link to the exact view.

The list shows 80 rows at a time with a button to show more. Click the index or name to copy it, click a key chip to filter the list by that key.

Key finder

The Key finder panel has a Keyboard and a Gamepad tab. Each key on the map shows how many controls use it (within the current group). Click a key to filter the list, and Clear key removes the filter.

With listening on:

  • Any key press on the keyboard selects that key.
  • A box appears where you can left click, right click, middle click or scroll to pick mouse buttons and the wheel.
  • On the Gamepad tab, pressing a controller button or pushing a stick picks it. Browsers only see a controller after you press something on it, and controllers without the standard mapping may pick the wrong button.

Detail panel

Shows the name, index, group, whether it is an axis, the keyboard and gamepad bindings, and the raw text from the FiveM docs.

Input group (first argument) switches the snippets between:

Value Name Use it for
0 PLAYER_CONTROL Almost everything: on foot, driving, weapons.
1 CAMERA_CONTROL Camera inputs, rarely needed.
2 FRONTEND_CONTROL Menus and the pause screen. Still works while a frontend menu is open.

Snippet tabs

Tab What you get File name
Detect A Wait(0) loop with IsControlJustPressed, IsControlPressed or IsControlJustReleased (buttons to switch). For axis controls the tab is called Read and uses GetControlNormal. control.lua
Disable DisableControlAction every frame plus an IsDisabledControlJustPressed check. disable_control.lua
Key mapping + and - commands with RegisterKeyMapping, using the control’s default key. Set a Command prefix (default myres) and a Settings label. keymapping.lua

Examples

Detecting E near something:

control.lua
CreateThread(function()
    while true do
        Wait(0)
        if IsControlJustPressed(0, 51) then -- INPUT_CONTEXT (E, pad DPAD RIGHT)
            -- your code here
        end
    end
end)

Blocking attacks in a safe zone:

disable_control.lua
CreateThread(function()
    while true do
        Wait(0)
        DisableControlAction(0, 24, true) -- INPUT_ATTACK
        if IsDisabledControlJustPressed(0, 24) then
            -- player tried to shoot
        end
    end
end)

A rebindable key for your own feature:

keymapping.lua
RegisterCommand("+myres_context", function()
    -- key pressed
end, false)

RegisterCommand("-myres_context", function()
    -- key released
end, false)

RegisterKeyMapping("+myres_context", "Open my menu", "keyboard", "E")

Control index or RegisterKeyMapping?

  • Control indexes are the game’s own actions. Use them to react to or block vanilla input. If a player rebinds a GTA action, the index follows their key. They need a Wait(0) loop and you cannot give your feature its own key.
  • RegisterKeyMapping adds an entry under Settings, Key Bindings, FiveM. Each player can change it, it is saved on their machine, and it needs no loop. Use it for anything your resource adds: menus, radios, emotes.

Warning

The default key of a mapping only applies the first time a player sees it. Changing it in your script later does not move existing players, so choose it carefully.

Tips

  • DisableControlAction lasts one frame. Call it every tick.
  • While a control is disabled, IsControlJustPressed returns false. Use IsDisabledControlJustPressed or IsDisabledControlPressed.
  • DisableAllControlActions(0) blocks the whole group; re-enable what you need with EnableControlAction.
  • If a check does nothing while a pause menu or frontend is open, try input group 2.

The URL follows the page: ?q= for the search, ?key= for the selected key (?key=E, ?key=LSHIFT, ?key=pad:DPAD RIGHT) and ?id= for the open control.

Limitations

Keyboard keys are the QWERTY defaults and gamepad buttons use Xbox names, as the FiveM docs list them. A player’s own bindings may differ. Everything runs in the browser, and key presses are only read while listening is on.
