Ok, I'm a big noob when It comes to DBP, I'm just starting to learn it, any way...

I'm makin a simple music player and I want the music to start when I hit 'P' (scancode: 25). I can Get it so you hit any key to play but thats not what I want.

I get an error when I type this in:



What Am I doing wrong?

its rapidly firing many times, you need to trap the key press once in a flagging method.
key tamers are found on the code snippets board.

Lol!

Had to edit this message because last night I simply couldn't get Play Music to work - however hard I tried. I thought the command was broken.

I've just gone back to the snippet I wrote and the damn thing works perfectly today. Doh!

Here's the snippet I wrote...

I dont no if i am correct so could someone tell me. Does scancode only allow one button to be press at a time, while keystate allows more than 1 to be pressed at the same time?

The difference is scancode tells what key is being pressed so you can only tell if one key is active and keystate tells you if a key is being pressed so you can see if multiple keys are being pressed. So yeah keystate can tell if multiple keys are being pressed.
