How to detect arrow keys in a Javascript game?

MysteriousDude

I made a pong like game and I want to control the paddle with arrow keys instead of the mouse.

For some reason the game is not detecting the keypress. Also, I tried adding a pause game function when I press P, but I am also stuck on this.

Can somebody please help?

The declaration of the event listeners:

document.addEventListener('keydown', event => {
        if (event.keyCode === 38) {
            paddle1 += 5;
        } else if (event.keyCode === 40) {
            paddle1 -= 5;
        } else if (event.keycode === 80) {
            PausePressed;
        }
    });

Here's the full pong game with keyboard controls:

    
        var canvas;
        var canvasContext;
        var ballX = 50;
        var ballSpeedX = 10;
        var ballY = 50;
        var ballSpeedY = 5;
        var ym = 10; // the movement of y axis
        var keys = new Array();
        
        var player1Score = 0;
        var player2Score = 0;
        const WinningScore = 5;
        
        var showingWinScreen = false;
        
        var paddle1 = 350;
        var paddle2 = 350;
        const paddleHeight = 100;
        const paddleThickness = 10;
    
        
        
        function PausePressed(evt) {
            if(showingWinScreen) {
                player1Score = 0;
                player2Score = 0;
                showingWinScreen = false;

So, the biggest issue is that you were never calling your move() function. I added a call to the move() function to your keydown event and then continually console logged everything that was happening until I figured out what was wrong.

Here is my edited code ( I left the console.logs in to show you how I debugged it). It shows the paddle moving and in the correct direction.

You may also have an issue with the delayed paddle movement when holding down a key because it takes a second to register that the key is being held down instead of pressed. I've attached a JS eventhandler reference to help you out in finding a way around that.

You also need to click the page to bring it in focus.

var canvas;
var canvasContext;
var ballX = 50;
var ballSpeedX = 10;
var ballY = 50;
var ballSpeedY = 5;
var ym = 10; // the movement of y axis
var keys = new Array();

var player1Score = 0;
var player2Score = 0;
const WinningScore = 11115;

var showingWinScreen = false;

var paddle1 = 350;
var paddle2 = 350;
const paddleHeight = 100;
const paddleThickness = 10;



function PausePressed(evt) {

function doKeyDown(evt) {

  canvasContext.fill();
