Hey,

I have my game working and i just tried to run it on an older version
(3.2) now my movement for my spaceship wont work because Input.KeyDown (KEY_DOWN_ARROW) etc doesn't exist.

Can anyone help me, i think getch is what to use but im not sure how to use it.

use getch and ord I think
here, use this to help you, run it and press the arrow keys

code:

var a: string(1)
loop
getch (a)
locate (1,1)put ord(a)
end loop

code:

var c : string (1)
loop
if hasch then
getch (c)
put "character #", ord (c), " was pressed"
else
put "no input"
end if
delay (50)
end loop
