im havin this problem cuz i want to everytime you press up or down than cutCount += 1;
the only thing is that when I press up or down cut count keeps increasing by 1 until i release the key (obvious since i used if(Key.isDown)
if you know a way that might work plese say so
thanks

You could set a timer, and if it's held down for more than 1 button press' time, it stops adding?

It's a bit roundabout...

Signature? What signature?

Also, any games I plan to make may or may not become vaporware. I'm not good with organizing my life...

What you have to do is to write a function which checks if the key has been Released. You can use a bool to become true if the key has been released and if it has and you press the key again the cutCount will ++. I am not gicing you the code right away, just giving you the tools to solve the problem.
