Hi! One of my students is trying to use a while loop under the “on A button pressed” event handler. When the condition countdown > 0 is true, he wants the camera to shake. When he adds in the loop and presses the A button, the code stops running. Any ideas on how to get this loop to run properly? Thank you!

while (true) has no exist condition, so it’ll stay in that forever. If he wants the loop to stop when countdown is no longer >= 0, he’d want something like this:
but in this case there wouldn’t be that much of a difference, because the countdown running out means the game over screen will pop up. Having the loop in the ‘on a pressed’ itself also has some behavior associated with it; on a pressed will only run one at a time, but from the current game it doesn’t seem like an issue (and we could work around if needed).
What would he like to see change in the game behavior wise?
