Java games rock!


« Posted 2005-01-30 20:04:30 »

Hi there!
I'm starting a Quix clone based on kevglass source of one of his 4k games. How can I optimize the loop on the constructor below? Also the line should increase while I keep a directional key pressed but it is not working right. For example, if i keep pressing UP key the line increases and after a while it decrease to a single point again as if I have released the UP key (and I didn't).
Tks
