Multiple Keystroke Values

[Prince Pwn]

How am I able to allow multiple keystrokes at the same time. For example, in the blow program I want to be able to hold DOWN and RIGHT to move in a downright position, so I need the value for DOWN and RIGHT.

Haha! Yes.. lets just say its not possible AWT/Swing was not designed for games, and they will not work the way you want for most games.

What you want is a polling mechanism not an IoC event handling mechanism. So, java game programmers have created a new api to resolve these issues: JInput (which also supports game controller/joysticks etc...)

You might have to do some reading to learn how to use it. You might even have to restructure your code to use it (..or maybe not). But it will be worth the effort.
