KeyListener - keyPressed delay
-
Hey guys! Just a quick question... So I've added a
KeyListenerto myJPanelfor a game I'm making, and everything is working out fine, except for one thing: When I hold down a key,keyPressedis called once, followed by a delay, followed by several consecutive calls of thekeyPressedmethod. I understand that this has to do with the way key events are processed and that you can adjust this delay within the control panel, but is there any way to remove this delay completely? I'm thinking what I'm going to end up doing is creating aboolean keyDownvariable which is set to true onkeyPressedand to false onkeyReleased. Any other ideas? :) -
