Its possible to detect when a key is pressed and do something only 1 time for each keypress i mean for ex: when you press enter shot, but only once , not continous. I'm using timers right now but i think there should be another way.

for example (this is not really code, just an example routine)

**************************
buttondown=0

do

if returnkey()=1 and buttondown=0
buttondown=1
(action stuff)
else
buttondown=0
endif

loop
***********************
this should work, good luck

Hi, i tryed your code Bolt , but i can hold returnkey pressed and the code runs continously...

this is the code:

pressed=0
do

if scancode()=78 and pressed=0
pressed=1
SET MATRIX HEIGHT 1, posx, posz, get matrix height(1,posx,posz)+10
update matrix 1
else
pressed=0
endif

sync
loop
