[java] KeyListners for a Multiplayer game

Can you supply some of your source code?

How are you listening to the key currently?

you need to make your own key handler (I know... sounds scary, but it's not).
It needs to do the following:

public class MyKeyHandler implements KeyListener
{
boolean pressed[256]; //assuming a standard char set for now

public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e)
{
pressed[e.getKeyCode] = true;
}

public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e)
{
pressed[256] = false;
}

public void CheckKeys()
{
if(pressed[])
{
//add your code here
}
if(pressed[])
{
//add your code here
}
//and so on.
}
}

I'm assuming you have a thread running to update your screen on even intervals. In the thread's Run loop, call MyKeyHandler.CheckKeys().

Does this help at all?
