Function that does not stop.

[LeMilliCraft]

Hello, I started by creating a game and my first step is to be able to put your nickname. The problem is that the function never stops even when I finish I can change the name. I think it's due to an error on my part if someone can enlighten me that would be good. Thank you in advance and sorry if there are mistakes I am French, have a nice day.

The game is attached;

Wow. Um. Not sure where to start.

Ignoring the unusual file structure for a moment.

When I run the script I get big white box. When I click it I get something that captures keystrokes. That actually works so - well done. When I press ENTER, I get a big white circle. Apart from odd behaviour, the text input actually works so not sure how to answer your question. I think your circle is too large. You have radius 50. I made it 10 and I think it works as expected.

When you say the "function never stops" - I don't experience that so perhaps that's a french thing - or not.

Some other tips you didn't ask for:
- having a main.lua with just one line doesn't make a lot of sense. Put more code into main.lua to make it useful. Start by moving love.draw, love.mousepressed, love.update there.
- you have love.draw defined twice. Don't do that.
- don't call REQUIRE in the middle of some function. That's simply confusing. Write a function and then call the function.


I can see you are beginning to understand the basics. Keep trying.

My interpretation of the OP's problem is that after entering the name, they can't move on to something else: the edit control does not stop responding to keys.

Note: I haven't downloaded the code.

Thank you very much for your advice, but the problem is not solved, the problem and that after having clicked on "enter" you can still modify your name which is displayed at the top left of the screen.
