    multiple keystrokes

    Hello,

    Does someone knows how to read multiple arrow keystrokes at the same time.

    Like when I have up + left so it should do something like diagonal up-left??

    I have search the forum to no luck, also tried on keydown, keyup, ProcessCmdKey, etc etc... no good.

    Re: multiple keystrokes

    As far as I'm aware its not possible to respond to two arrow keys at the same time. Some keys such as SHIFT, CTRL and ALT can be used in combination with other keys - they modify other keys, however other "standard" keys can't.

    Thinking about keyboard driven games I don't know of any that work like that, if you need to move diagonally they normally use a 3x3 grid of keys on the keyboard and have specific keys for up, down, left, right, up-left, up-right, down-left and down-right.
