// Typical pattern for checking key state in the input handler
// Find the keyboard input processing file and add your key check:

bool isKeyPressed(int virtualKey) {
    return (GetAsyncKeyState(virtualKey) & 0x8000) != 0;
}

// Example: adding a new toggle key
if (isKeyPressed(VK_F7)) {
    // toggle your feature
    myFeatureEnabled = !myFeatureEnabled;
}

// In the argument parsing section (typically in main or init):
for (int i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
    std::string arg = argv[i];

    if (arg == "-name" && i + 1 < argc) {
        username = argv[++i];
    }
    else if (arg == "-fullscreen") {
        launchFullscreen = true;
    }
    // Add your argument:
    else if (arg == "-myoption" && i + 1 < argc) {
        myOption = argv[++i];
    }
