Beginner Lesson 12 : Placing X bug

[rhn94]

So i am almost halfway through the lesson and am at the part(1:19:46) where chili writes this piece of code to put down X in the grid

Code: Select all

if (kbd.EnterIsPressed() )
{
     SetSquareState( cursorX, cursorY, X);
}

For some reason when i run the program after this and press enter to place a X, it does not appear and after i move the cursor the X appears at that coordinate to where i moved it to. And the first 2 rows can't be filled with Xs. Can someone please help?

i have attached my code.

in your compose frame you had the following

Code: Select all

if( kbd.DownIsPressed() )
	{
		SetSquareState(cursorX,cursorY,X );
	}

You should change it EnterIsPressed() )

Hi,

There should be a disclaimer at the end of the video.

"Everything in the tutorial works, so if it doesn't you have typed it wrong" LOL

well i dont know bout everybody else but i make mistakes like that all the time, but in programmin, a simple mistake is catastrophic haha

Mistakes are inevitable. The only thing that tweaks my neuticles is when they say "I did everthing exactly like chili and it doesn't work". FORK! IN THE EYE!

the other day i posted a problem I had with some code from a book - it was written exactly like in the book - exactly - but it wouldn't compile and I just couldn't figure it out

after getting an answer and then finally getting further into the book i then realize it wasn't suppose to be compiled yet lol
