Loop Issue

[ScottyTooHotty 188]

Hello

So this has been my issue for the past 6 hours and I cannot crack it so I have given in and come to where I know someone will know the answer. 

Anyway, basically I am using this section of code:

Spoiler

                    while (true)
                    {
                        if (Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.L))
                            LKeyPressed();

                        if (Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.K))
                            KKeyPressed();
                    }

However, when this code is carried out it freezes the game or takes the game to around 1 frame every 12-15 seconds (no exaggeration). This section of code isn't being carried out in a loop (hence that's why I made my own). But any help is much appreciated, thanks guys.

First of all, make sure you run any looping code in a new fiber. Second, yield the fiber on every loop. 

GameFiber.StartNew(delegate{
	while (true)
	{
		GameFiber.Yield();

		if (Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.L))
			LKeyPressed();

		if (Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.K))
			KKeyPressed();
	}
});

If you're not already, wrap it in a GameFiber. If you are, then add a call to GameFiber.Yield(). Something like this should work:

 

GameFiber.StartNew(delegate {
	while(true) {
		if (Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.L))
			LKeyPressed();
		if (Game.IsKeyDown(Keys.K))
			KKeyPressed();
		GameFiber.Yield();
	}
});

Thanks guys, it was already in a GameFiber but there was no yield, thanks. @Darkmyre @PNWParksFan
