SDL_WaitEventTimeout

SDL Development

Make sure your loop runs:

while( app is running ) {
SDL_Event event;
while(SDL_PollEvent(&event)) {
process the event…
}
do other stuff…
}

This will prevent the event queue from filling up.

I don’t really need it for my other stuff, but it’ll conflict less if
it’s in. :-)–
