Press Enter to continue

[Fenrisulfr]

I want my program to continue when the user presses the enter key so

Turing:

var enter : string (1) := chr (13) loop     Font.Draw ("Press ENTER to restart", 180, 80, defFontID, black)     if hasch then         getch (enter)         exit     else     end if end loop

but it continues anyway no matter what key I press. What am I doing wrong?

You need to getch a key then exit your loop when that key is enter.

Very basic and easy to do.

Turing:

var Keys : array char of boolean; loop Input.KeyDown (chars); exit when chars (KEY_ENTER) end loop/*exits loop when exit statment is true*/ put "Exited" /*to prove this works*/

[BigBear]

If you break your program down line by line you are creating the variable enter and assigning it to chr(13)

Isn't enter 10?

Then you are in a loop displaying instructions then

Turing:

if hasch then         getch (enter)         exit     else     end if

Means if a key is pressed (hasch) then get a value for enter then exit the loop.

So it doesn't matter what key you enter it will exit.

try using an exit when statement.
