Question about iskeydown() command

Hi all.

I am looking for a way to get FlexSim to terminate code execution. (For instance to be able to prevent infinite loops.) I tried doing this in the code below.

The goal was to be able to terminate execution of the code by pressing the left shift key, but I can't seem to get it to work. If the shift key is pressed when I start the code execution, it works, but not if I press while the code executes.

for(int x=1;x<=10000000;x++)
{
	if(iskeydown(16)) return "Shift Key Pressed";
	int Number = duniform(1,100000000)+duniform(1,100000000);
}
return realtime(12);

Is there any way I can get FlexSim to 'listen' for a keystroke while executing the code?

Best regards
Christian

Please try Ctrl + Break. This shortcut tries to terminate the code execution.
