two keys pressed together
Author
Hi guys.
In my program, i want to allow user to use two keys to control the same thing. Say use both "U" and "J" to fire. So I wrote this in my code. But it does seem to work
Any suggestions?
Does it work if you just press U and not work when you press J? Or it doesn't work for neither? And do you want the user to press both U and J at the same time to fire or either pressing U or J will fire?

I think it only worked when i pressed the former key, in this case U.
Sorry. It should be single quote in the code. 'U' not "U".
I want to use either key to control the fire, which means U can fire a bullet and so does J.

Have you tried using && instead of ||?
I haven't tried. I don't think it would work, because I want the keys work when either of them are pressed.
Your code line is correct for the result you want to achieve, perhaps the problem lies within g_keys?
It looks like the code is correct but you're testing against only the UPPERCASE letters.
so try this instead:
When you press a key you're probably getting the lowercase version through.... maybe.

1st of all, thanks for the reply.
My code was correct. Actually the reason it didn't work was because of this
Because the second if actually made the fire to be always false, unless u and i were pressed together.
Solution: change the second if to if( u is not press AND i is not pressed).
