Walking/Running COG

I want to make the character lose stamina when he walks/runs/jumps/swims. Trouble is, I haven't the slightest idea what command controls the player's movements. I can make him lose stamina but how do I control it such that he loses more when running and less when walking. Perhaps it is related to the next question - What is the COG (or Flag) that speeds up the player when he is running and slows down when walking or crouching. Thanks.

He is the chosen one... You must see it.

There's no cog for that, it's in-game. But you could make the player lose stamina by adding something like this to any cog:

Code:

while (1)
{
   if (GetThingThrust(player) > 2.0)   // running
   {
      ChangeInv(player, stamina_bin, -20);
   }
   else
   if (GetThingThrust(player) > 1.0)   // walking
   {
      ChangeInv(player, stamina_bin, -10);
   }
   else
   if (GetThingThrust(player) > 0.0)   // crawling
   {
     ChangeInv(player, stamina_bin, -5);
   }
   Sleep(0.05);
}

I don't think there's a switch clause in cog...
