Button Controls?
Feb 23rd, 2006, 9:21pm  
is it possible to have proccesing recive input from 2 keys on the keyboard at the same time?

im in the middle of creating a 3D game for a 4th year project. i have the model (Enterprise E) moving around nicely but you can only move it one direction at a time. and if you fire a weapon and try to turn at the same time it wont work either!

Any help would be very much appriciated

Graham!

Something i whipped up

Code:

boolean[] keys = new boolean[526];
boolean checkKey(String k)
{
  for(int i = 0; i < keys.length; i++)
    if(KeyEvent.getKeyText(i).toLowerCase().equals(k.toLowerCase())) return keys[i];  
  return false;
}

void keyPressed()
{
  keys[keyCode] = true;
}

void keyReleased()
{
  keys[keyCode] = false;
}


Usage:
 if(checkKey("s") && checkKey("ctrl")) ellipse(width/2,height/2,40,40);
