Okay, the issue is the "\" character. Using it means that the code will interpret it as the start of a so-called escape sequence (which are used to render non-printable characters in a printable format, for example "\n" is a newline). I assume you mean the "Full throttle" button here; in order to display the key the user has actually mapped to that particular control, you need to change the message to "Press $\$".

Alright, so where exactly is it having the issue? Is it in the Directive Text Fields or in the Event itself where I select the key from the list of buttons?

The issue is the combination \"

That's something that can't be parsed safely, as the engine will get confused a bit where the string it is passing actually ends. So, change all uses of \ to $\$, and you're fine.

Actually I believe you should only use it in the directive field, not the event itself. The event itself should automatically do something like that.

So try just doing it in the directive field.

Yeah, the problem is the directive text, and possibly the messages. The actual sexp is fine.
