reading more than one keypress at a time...

24th April 2008

Implemented Hobos' method but it didn't work.
The method Orion advised did work.
But again, remember keyboard bounce.
That with KeyDown, keys must be pressed fully down too.
But granted, there is more than one way to go about for the same purpose.


codingmonkey

reading more than one keypress at a time...

24th April 2008

Perhaps.
But remember these keyHit commands are fast.
Very Fast. And you have to take in count of keyboard bounce.
I don't know anyone personally who can strike 2 keys really fast.
Maybe an octopus.
But there is an nested if Keyhit comparsion in*snip*

reading more than one keypress at a time...

Here is a rough draft program.
I used 1 and the Control keys.
And also the 2 key to clear the screen.
Adjust the delay times yourself.
Or set up your own timers.

Its from my coding experience that
its advisable to set up a keyed poll timer of some sort.
Normally and usually, the KeyHit command is very, very fast. A few possible ways are these:
(1)set up a timer for the 1 key being pressed.
In this case. Le*snip*

To have the processing power to carry out simulations of the protein foldings. Molecular dynamics too.
More interest in core processors too.

Including even the interactions of molecules.
Molecular dynamics.

3D Text

17th April 2008

Read about Cobra on the home page link provided by Hotshot.
Even read and heard from others that its performance is very powerful.
The best thing to do in this case is to try it out.
I will download the demo.

the screenshot is nice as well as the program and the syntax you used. That is what is nice.

acording to your code,
P_Jet is the handle for your image loaded in from the bitmap file "P-Jet.bmp"
same applies to the enemy jet of E_Jet too.
I suggest placing a handle inside your types. And perhaps a different name for both the player and en*snip*

yes, these methods are class methods and are associated as instance methods. When the instance is created. Although, you can also create your own classes and methods and even and include and use the built-in ones in them as well.

I believe most of those games in discount bins are from publishers pumping out too much crap. I think in the end it'll be more like a "house cleaning" as opposed to a total crash. It'll probably return to people publishing quality products in the end.

I found this compiler a few days ago and over at Ionic Wind. Its free but what a shame there is hardly any support for it. You have to pay for technical support and to join the forums. Documentation is literally nil.
