Thread: Need some help

Get it to accept the command while you're in the fight.

how about (dunno if this works not tested)

Code:

while (!getch(key))
{
    fight stuff
}
what u want it to do when u press 'key'

im not too good on key inputs so slap me if im wrong

you need to include conio.h, and replace 'key' with the key (may need quotes, etc (i dunno))

Umm, I'm not sure if it's standard but you can try using _kbhit() or kbhit() or something, it's a non-blocking function, meaning your game can get on with its life while you don't type anything.

Code:

while(theGameShouldBeRunning)
{
if(kbhit())
{
    int char = getchar(); // or something along those lines; BTW, it won't wait for input, 
                            // it'll just read whatever you hit to get kbhit() to set off.
    if(char == 'q')
        break;  //q for QUIT
}
}

That's basically the idea, it might not be standard though, so if your compiler barfs then try rearranging the letters or just give up on it
