FILTER_KBD2

• Type: number (3)
• Description: Filter constant for keyboard drift mode input

FILTER_AI

• Type: string ("FILTER_AI")
• Description: Filter constant for AI-controlled input

FILTER_NAME

• Type: table
• Description: Lookup table mapping numeric filter constants to human-readable names
• Expected structure:
  • [0] = "Keyboard"
  • [1] = "Gamepad"
  • [2] = "Direct"
  • [3] = "KeyboardDrift"

Internal Notes

• A filter value of -1 on the C++ side means "auto-detect" - it gets resolved to a valid >=0 filter before being sent to Lua
• FILTER_AI is notably a string, not a number, unlike the other filter constants
