Interactive Gaming and Mouse Conflicts - *Resolved*

Need suggestions on how to resolve mouse conflicts and need to update arrays during realtime?


Currently I get info from a remote server and use remote server input to update my arrays for positioning (x,y) SO drawing of various objects can occur. At the same time the user is using the mouse -- moving a sprite for example.

Once I'm in a loop and the mouse is clicked, mouse messages don't get to the mouse move routine timely since the loop APPEARS to be in control.

ANY IDEAS HOW TO OVERCOME THIS PROBLEM?

Have you got a DoEvents call in your loop? If not, you'll need on to give Windows a chance to process any pending messages (like mouse messages)...

PsychoMark:

Previously tried DoEvents, doesn't work.
