Directional Keys - Useing in Console
Ok, i am trying to use the directional arrows to decide where the user moves too. I used to use letters off the keyboard, but with the use of barons keys.h i hoped to use the directionals.
Unfortunatly none of the K_NAME 's are working, these are what is defined in the .h file. I have attahced the .h file and pasted the code to the program, i want to know what i am doing wrong, this is my first time trying this.
Code:
/* Steven Billington

Caverns.cpp
September 27, 2002
This is my first game ever. Its a relativley simple program
as it should be cause its newbie made. Its a console based text RPG.
Welcome to Caverns, enjoy!
