How do I change the gravity when the Enter key is pressed


So I made a little matter.js thing, using javascript and html, it just creates a black floor, where which a rectangle, trapezoid, square, and circle fall on it:

        // module aliases
        let Engine = Matter.Engine,
            Render = Matter.Render,
            Runner = Matter.Runner,
            Bodies = Matter.Bodies,
            Composite = Matter.Composite;

        // create an engine
        let engine = Engine.create();
        engine.world.gravity.y = 1;

        function changeGravity()
        {
            engine.world.gravity.y = 0;
        }



        // create a renderer
        let render = Render.create({
            element: document.body,
            engine: engine,
            
            options: {
                wireframes: false,
                background: ''
            }
        });

        let RenderOption = {
            isStatic: false,
            render:{
                fillStyle: 'black',
                strokeStyle: 'red',
                lineWidth: 5
            }
        }

        // create two boxes and a ground
        let boxA = Bodies.rectangle(400, 10, 100, 200, RenderOption);
        let boxB = Bodies.rectangle(450, 50, 80, 80, RenderOption);
        let circle2 = Bodies.circle(500, 40, 50, RenderOption);
        let ground = Bodies.rectangle(400, 610, 900, 90, {
            isStatic: true,
            render:{
                fillStyle: 'black'
            }
        });
        let trapezoid = Bodies.trapezoid(400, 60, 100, 100, 0.9, RenderOption);

        // add all of the bodies to the world
        Composite.add(engine.world, [boxA, boxB, ground, circle2, trapezoid]);
        
        // Event listener for keydown event
        document.addEventListener("keydown", function(event) {
    if (event.key === "Enter") {
        changeGravity();
    }
})
        

        // run the renderer
        Render.run(render);
        
        // create runner
        let runner = Runner.create();

        // run the engine
        Runner.run(runner, engine);

        console.log("Engine created:", engine);
        console.log("Render started:", render);
        console.log("Bodies added:", boxA, boxB, ground);
        

    </script>
</body>
</html>

It is supposed to make the gravity 0 when the enter key is pressed.

No matter what I tried this does not work. The wierd thing if I put something like alert() or console.log everything works fine. I cant seem to find the issue.

Thanks.

  • Turns out that my keyboard was glitched.....

    Sorry for the confusion!
