Sorry your browser is not supported!

I notice if a player pushes a button on the keyboard or uses the mouse to click on something in the 2D game world that it's impossible to only register the action as being a single occurence.

Let me clarify. Lets say I if want the player to have the ability to select an item from the screen and I grab the mousex and mousey coords from the screen only after the mouseclick() is true. But instead of it registering as a single mouse click it will register as multiple mouseclicks because the player might hold down on the mouse button maybe for more then a second.

How do I fix this? I also have the same problem with inkey$()!

I tried to work this out myself but the solutiuon is fleeting for me hmmm.

please disregard this question. a few threads below my question and somebody had a similar problem.
