Using Keyboard to Control Variables
I am writing a program that moves a simple rectangle around a graphics window, and I want to use a WASD style control scheme to do this. I was wondering how I would get the box to move according to what key I press. I have tried makingand that didn't work. I know there must be a way to do this but I don't know what it is. I can't find this browsing the web for some reason. I guess I don't know what to search.Code:examplevariable = getch();
Can I have some other ideas on how to do this?
Isn't one thread enough?
Read the example variable with getch() inside a loop, evaluate it (is it a,s,d or w?) update coordinates accordingly, with the new coordinates reprint the screen. Rinse repeat.
sorry, I didn't see your other post until after
dupe thread closed.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
