Hey all, Having a bit of a mare with a 2 player game using WASD for player 1 and cursor keys (UP, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT) for player 2. It seems that the keyboard will only trigger either RIGHT or D, not both together :( If I change player 1's controls to SZXC (or ESDF) it works fine. Has anyone come across this, or know if it's possible to hack the Keyboard class to make RIGHT and D work at the same time?
I'm not sure if this is your case, but it's very common for keyboard manufacturers to build some keyboard circuits together in a way that there's a limitation on the number of keys pressed at the same time that the keyboard can detect, or that certain keys cannot be pressed at the same time (depending on the "group" of keys they belong to on the keyboard circuitry).
I advise you to test other keyboard models and brands (regardless of OS) to see if the error occurs. Testing here I can read "d" and RIGHT at the same time without a problem (cheap but good/oldschool MITSUMI keyboard).
