GLUT Keyboard problems
Author
Hello,
I want to navigate through my landscape with the up, down, left and right-keys. When I hold the up key pressed, I move forward. To move left, I press the left key and without leaving the up key. now I move one step left and then I stop. In games it is possible to go e.g. one step left while holding the up key and the going further without the need of repressing the up-key.
I hope my description is understandable ;).
How can this be achieved?
Thanks,
Pretty similar to my problem I just posted.

that's another issue but with a timing function, it should not be a problem.
regarding my problem: I fixed it with a array, which holds the values of pressed keys.

Can you please post how you did that?
I will want to move forward while say pressing strafe.

it's very simple.
for the glutKeyboard function use (int)key instead of key (because key is a unsigned char.
that's it ;).
bool pressed_keys[255];void init(){for (i=0; i<255; i++) pressed_keys = false;}void glutSpecialKeypressfunction(int key, x, y){pressed_keys[key] = true;}void glutSpecialKeypressUpfunction(int key, x, y){pressed_keys[key] = false;}glutRenderfunction(){if (pressed_keys[GLUT_UP_KEY]) moveforward;if (pressed_keys[GLUT_LEFT_KEY]) moveleft;...}for the glutKeyboard function use (int)key instead of key (because key is a unsigned char.
