Make the input wait for mouse or keyboard - Assembly Language

Question

I fixed my program, but now the loop seems to be stuck. Whenever I press u or d, it is stuck, but the mouse part works :)

Any tips on fixing this? I tried a lot of things but it doesn't seem to work. I will try more things, but any advice is appreciated.

Answer 1

Thanks for your advice knm241. The above program now works fine thanks to you. The only problem that occurred was that the keyboard buffer was not clearing and thus the program would get stuck in a loop. I fixed that by clearing the buffer and now everything works.

I used this macro to clear the buffer.

BUFFER MACRO
    MOV AH,0C 
    MOV AL,0 
    INT 21H 
    ENDM

and added it to FASTER and SLOWER jumps before it jumped back into the loop.
