I need help with making a dice. I tried to make the dice roll using randomize but i have to click pause to make it stop. I need your help to make it stop using a key from the keyboard and then make it work again, so that i can roll the dice easily. Here is what i got:

Rand.Set (16#1234ABCD)
loop
put "Rolled ", Rand.Int (1, 6)
end loop


I would really appreciate your feedback. Thanx a million. Crying or Very sad

You could use Input.Pause(). Or you could use the following structure:
code:

loop
  exit when hasch
end loop

with a possible use of Input.Flush().

Check out:

Input.Pause
Input.Keydown()
getch()

probably in order of which is best for your situation.

*edit* wow, I really should refresh more often.

i tried the code that u told me to write. it stops the dice and also exits it. But when i run the program i just want one rolled number to appear not the whole thing. for example, when i say run, it prints the following:
You rolled 5

You rolled 6

you rolled 1

you rolled 4................and so on. The code that i typed is:
[/code] Rand.Set (16#1234ABCD)
put "Press any key to stop the dice from rolling"
delay (1000)
cls
loop
put ""
put "You rolled ", Rand.Int (1, 6)
exit when hasch
end loop
code:
