Multiple problems caused by changing NSThread sleepUntilDate interval


  • Subject: Multiple problems caused by changing NSThread sleepUntilDate interval

I'm having several problems with a game I'm writing in Cocoa, none of which
seemed to happen until I changed the time interval in my NSThread.

Right now, I'm using

[NSThread sleepUntilDate:[NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:0.02]];

And I'm getting Signal 10 & Signal 11 errors. I don't experience them when
the interval is greater than 0.02.

Also, a problem is occurring with my collision detection for the player
paddle. It wasn't able to go through the bounds of the view until I changed
the time interval.

Finally, for whatever reason, my NSTextViews for the player & computer
scores don't get updated properly. I call

[pScoreField setIntValue:++pScore];

The score increases, but it's like the numbers overwrite the previous score,
so that the score will have 1 superimposed over the 0. Sometimes it happens,
sometimes it doesn't.

If anybody could please check out my code & tell me what the deal is, I
would really be grateful. The code can be downloaded at:

Sorry to bother everybody, but I'm really having quite a bit of trouble.
Ordinarily I would post this kind of request at iDevGames, but they don't
seem to be up right now.
