Virtual Clock problem

[zaneiel]

its late and all so i may be missing the obviouse but anyone know why this code dosen't seem to produce my desired result?

if (kbd->GetKeyState (CSKEY_F1))
   {      
      //printf("ElapsedTicks - %d",vc->GetCurrentTicks());
      if((vc->GetCurrentTicks() - Last_Key) >= 11000.0) // <-- tried all kinds of different numbers here
            {
               Last_Key = vc->GetElapsedTicks();
               RENDER_GUI ? RENDER_GUI = false : RENDER_GUI = true;
            }
      
   }

Last_Key is of type int tried with long and float but dosen't seem to do anything -- maybe i am using vc incorrectly?
also:
Last_Key = vc->GetCurrentTicks() ;
is assigned in the constructor as is RENDER_GUI = false;

thanks in advance peace

You are comparing GetCurrentTicks() with GetElapsedTicks(). That doesn't make much sense. You should use GetCurrentTicks() instead of GetElapsedTicks() inside the loop.
