Question

I am writing a silly little program (as we all do from time to time) to work on some basic C# coding. As I’m sure you can see, the mouse is clicked, the picture moves until it’s at the place where the mouse was clicked. This bit works fine. I then want the picturebox to move randomly, which I have also managed! The next problem I have is that when I click, instead of moving to the new mouse coordinates, the picturebox continues to move randomly. Any help on this would be much appreciated! Here is the code I think is the problem.

Many Thanks!

protected override void OnMouseClick(MouseEventArgs e)
{
    base.OnMouseClick(e);
    int destX = e.X;
    int destY = e.Y;

        HasArrived = false;

    while (HasArrived == false)
    {
    moveImage(destX, destY, pictureBox1);

        if (pictureBox1.Left == destX && pictureBox1.Top == destY)
        {
            HasArrived = true;
            while (HasArrived == true)
            {
                randomMove(pictureBox1);
                hungry1 += 1;
            }
        }
    }
}

You are stucked in your inner loop!
Try to put the loop in a backgroundworker,
so you can recognize the new mouseclick to set HasArrived to true.

And using the negative while statement in the positive while statemant seems very bad to me,
ive never seen that before.
I dont think thiss will work fine..
