Oh man this is sooo awesome, I'm quite sure that'll be it, thanks for that tip sorunome

Haha, no prob, WHG is epic, so

well, this pic is kinda demotivating, hence the number of deaths..

Lol, maybe you should add that you can start by some level once you managed to get so far once.

Nick · « **Reply #37 on:** December 29, 2012, 01:26:11 pm »

yeah, sure, otherwise it wouldn't be fun anymore. I only realised something. The nspire has no quality key-repeat. So whenyou press the arrow key it takes about a second before it gets recognized as a continuous pressing, and even once it started, it only calls on.arrowKey() 5 times per seconds (+-), so i would have to find a way to handle this.. and other keys don't have keyrepeat at all (except for [tab] i think)

Sorunome · « **Reply #38 on:** December 29, 2012, 01:27:31 pm »

maybe you can detect if the key is been pressed down (state change from up to down), set a boolean to true, and then when it is going up and set the same boolean to false.
That's how i did it with some stuff

Nick · « **Reply #39 on:** December 29, 2012, 01:28:21 pm »

nope, i could toggle the boolean each time you press though, but that's kinda unhandy, isn't it?

edit: you can't detect a keyUp in lua

What about not keyDown? :p

Sorunome · « **Reply #41 on:** December 30, 2012, 02:52:27 am »

But if you can't detect keyup there isn't any sence in dat

Nick · « **Reply #42 on:** December 30, 2012, 03:02:18 am »

Jim gave me an excellent idea: work with a counter. When you press a key, a counter specified for that key increases its value, while a timer decreases its value. That way, each time the arrowKey gets called I increase the counter so that it keeps on going while the press is not recognised.

This will take quite a lot of experimenting I guess, but it looks like that is the solution to our problem.
I tried to play it again, but seriously...

Sorunome · « **Reply #43 on:** December 30, 2012, 03:04:03 am »

Nice idea for the keys!

And i think you also first thought the impossible game was to hard, but it is IMO one of the most awesome calc games

Nick · « **Reply #44 on:** December 30, 2012, 05:48:33 am »

It sure will be awesome if I can get it as good as the original one, I haven't tested anything yet, so i'm not entirely sure i'll be able to get a good framerate when e.g. All thoe turning objects are displayed, but i'll keep you up to date as soon as I reach a reasonable state. For now i'll first finish uno
