Replying to Understanding SGroups

The code does introduce some "irregularities",... Regardless, the reason it is not working is that you need to SPAWN the squad

Squad_Create, simply creates the squad in "despawned" state.

In order to select it, you need to spawn it to the world via Squad_Spawn(child) (immediately after the Squad_Create).

Update:

function Punisher_Init()
	ind = Tut_GetLocalPlayerIndex()
	client = World_GetPlayerAt(ind)
	build = Player_GetEntities(client)
	PID = Player_GetID(client)
	hq = EGroup_GetSpawnedEntityAt(string.format("__Player%dEntities", PID),1)
	spawn = Entity_GetPosition(hq)
	child = Squad_Create("guard_squad_civilian_child_a", client, spawn, 0)
	one = SGroup_Create("1")
	two = SGroup_Create("2")
	three = SGroup_Create("3")
	four = SGroup_Create("4")
	SGroup_Add(one, child)
	W40k_AssignHotkeySGroup( "1", 0 )
	W40k_AssignHotkeySGroup( "2", 9 )
	W40k_AssignHotkeySGroup( "3", 8 )
	W40k_AssignHotkeySGroup( "4", 7 )
	Rule_Add(Rule_Monitor1)
	print("successfully initialized")
end

function Rule_Monitor1()
	Misc_GetSelectedSquads(SGroup_CreateIfNotFound("sg_Player1selection"))
	t_builder1 = Util_MakeBlueprintTable(
		"guard_squad_civilian_child_a"
		)
	if SGroup_ContainsBlueprints("sg_Player1selection", t_builder1, false) ==  true then
		print("pressed 0")
	end
end

I switched to this, SGroup_IsSelected didn't seem to work, but this configuration isn't working either, I think its becuase the squad I spawn in doesn't actually show up but I'm trying to find out why

I am not 100% sure, but I think the SGroup must not be empty...

(Arbitrary conjecture) I think that the SGroup_IsSelected boolean function  is True, only if at least one squad of the SGroup is selected...

reading the documentation it says all squads have to be selected, I'll try to put something in the SGroup. Its done with Sgroup_Add right?

Hello, I have started trying to use SGroups as a means to read input from the keyboard

function Punisher_Init()
	ind = Tut_GetLocalPlayerIndex()
	client = World_GetPlayerAt(ind)
	SGroup_Create("1")
	SGroup_Create("2")
	SGroup_Create("3")
	SGroup_Create("4")
	W40k_AssignHotkeySGroup( "1", 0 )
	W40k_AssignHotkeySGroup( "2", 9 )
	W40k_AssignHotkeySGroup( "3", 8 )
	W40k_AssignHotkeySGroup( "4", 7 )
	Rule_Add(Rule_Monitor1)
	print("successfully initialized")
end

function Rule_Monitor1()
	if SGroup_IsSelected("1") then
		print("pressed 0")
	end
end

When I press 0 the game selects an empty squad but when I check the logs nothing printed, what am I doing wrong?
