I am trying to use physical interaction for my project and it requires the use of arrow keys. not only that, but it requires the use of “if <key> is pressed” block in an “if” block in order for the interaction to work. The problem is that in the context of my project, the only way I can get it to work is through the use of a forever block.

Here is my project:

Thanks everyone!

I think that project is what you need.

Unfortunately, this didn't really help me out. Sorry

Thanks for trying though

What is the problem? Any “If” type block only works continuously if it is in a loop.

I'm pretty sure it'll have to be in a forever or

repeat until <(use this variable to show when to stop the loop) = [anything that will make sense to you]>

end

if you only have a few options with the key block (in this case up and down key), use this script…

define when asked...
wait until <<key [up arrow key v] pressed?> or <key [down arrow key v] pressed?>>
if <key [up arrow key v] pressed?> then
Your script here...
end
if <key [down arrow key v] pressed?> then
Your script here...
end

It's okay everyone, I figured out how to solve it! Thanks everyone

This is not the only way… :

when [ x] key pressed
repeat until <not <key [ x] pressed?>>
your block
end

1. Please create your own new topic rather than necroposting

2. Please don't post in all-capitals which is considered the same as shouting

3. Give more information and share the project or we can only guess

4. Be polite.
