How do you set it up to actively wait for a key press, and then use that key press. Instead of user typing the letter and hitting enter. I just want them to hit the key. Not have to hit enter as...

Ok, I really tried to figure this out by myself. But it's been a reoccuring bug for a long time.

Ok I cleaned up the code, those functions that were declard int but returned no number are from previous code where they did, which i changed without changing them, i think i got em all now,

I'm making this game while I learn C++ it helps me learn, and its fun.

Anyway, couple bugs, i've tried and tried again to fix, but can't seem to do it.
