  • @hungrier You put three guesses in the post that filled in the last correct word, so it produced three new games.

    @error, you need to consolidate them, I think.



  • @djls45 I thought there was debounce to prevent it from starting multiple games


  • Considered Harmful

    @djls45 I thought there was debounce to prevent it from starting multiple games

    The debounce just suppresses output messages. Basically, if it renders 3 frames in a second, you only see the last frame.
    Everything still happens, (including actually rendering those excess frames), you just don't see them.
