Thanks everyone for the help. Jeff D, i havent had time to put the code you gave me into my game, but i tried it with a couple of "cout"''s in the loop to make sure it was checking input and looping, and it all worked fine, so thank you very much!

(please excuse my profile signature if it does not work, i only just tried adding it, to see if it works)
