How do I prevent a Key being pressed down all the time?

Hello all, For my little son (4 years of age) I am making a little car game in which he can move a car around the screen using the arrowkeys. I made a few obstakels (walls) so he has to move around them but when he hits them he is send back to the beginposition. Not to difficult for me to make

Re: How do I prevent a Key being pressed down all the time?

Bonjour WIlliam, Obviously your son has found an easy way to win :-) All key events are sent repeatedly as long as the key is pressed. To prevent further triggering by the same handler, just use the flushEvents function to trash all events you don't want until your handler has been

Re: How do I prevent a Key being pressed down all the time?

Hello William An easier way to use the arrow keys is whit the arrowKey handler. But unfortunately it keeps being sent while the key is pressed. What you need is a way to check for the key being released. The following code will do the trick ON arrowKey theKey if (theKey = Right) and

Re: How do I prevent a Key being pressed down all the time?

Hello Eric and Andreas, My problem is that the arrowkey is hold down and not being pressed quickly several times. So there is no keyup. Or do I not get what you mean? The flushEvents doesn't work either :-( greetings, William 2008/9/27 Andres Martinez [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hello William An

Re: How do I prevent a Key being pressed down all the time?

Hi Andreas, Yes I did use your script. To avoid issues I used it into a new stack. When I use my script in a button everything works fine but when using the arrowkeys it doesn't because, like I said, the key is hold down the whole time. The script for the arrow keys is used as a stack script.

Re: How do I prevent a Key being pressed down all the time?

Hi Andreas and William, Andreas that is very nifty and works for me, it seems though you left out the local variable. William you would have to script the other arrowKeys if you use them in your program. This works for me in a stack script: - local pressed on arrowKey theKey if
