Smooth Tile by tile movement

Game Mechanics
#1

Im having trouble with “smooth” tile by tile movement. I’ve got the basics down but on the very first one it stops after it reaches its point and continues on smoothly. I was wondering if thats because of the way I check if a key is pressed or if its the movement itself. Both the keyboard class and the player class are down below. I was hoping someone could help me with this issue. Thank you :).


package net.gasquake.game.input;

import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import java.awt.event.KeyListener;

public class Keyboard implements KeyListener {

	public int keyDown, keyUp;
	
	public boolean keyDown(int k) {
		if (k != this.keyDown) {
	      return false;
	    }
	    this.keyDown = 0;
	    return true;
	}
	
	public boolean keyUp(int k) {
		if (k != this.keyUp) {
	      return false;
	    }
	    this.keyUp = 0;
	    return true;
	}
	
	public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
		this.keyDown = e.getKeyCode();
	}
	  
	public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
		this.keyUp = e.getKeyCode();
	}
	  
	public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {}
	
}



package net.gasquake.game.entities;

import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.event.KeyEvent;
import net.gasquake.game.Zaffre;
import net.gasquake.game.entities.core.Entity;

public class Player extends Entity {

	private boolean lockedMovement = false;
	private int oldX, oldY;
	
	public Player(int x, int y, Zaffre zaffre) {
		super(x, y, zaffre);
		w = 64; h = 64;
	}
	
	public void update() {
		if (oldX == x || oldY == y) {
			if ((x % 64 == 0 && y % 64 == 0)) {
				lockedMovement = false;
				dx = 0; dy = 0;
			}
		}
		if (this.oldX != this.x) {
			this.oldX = this.x;
		}
		if (this.oldY != this.y) {
			this.oldY = this.y;
		}
		if (!lockedMovement) {
			if (zaffre.getKeyboard().keyDown(KeyEvent.VK_LEFT)) {
				dx = -4;
				lockedMovement = true;
			}
			if (zaffre.getKeyboard().keyDown(KeyEvent.VK_RIGHT)) {
				dx = 4;
				lockedMovement = true;
			}
			if (zaffre.getKeyboard().keyDown(KeyEvent.VK_UP)) {
				dy = -4;
				lockedMovement = true;
			}
			if (zaffre.getKeyboard().keyDown(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN)) {
				dy = 4;
				lockedMovement = true;
			}
			if (zaffre.getKeyboard().keyUp(KeyEvent.VK_LEFT)) {
				dx = 0;
			}
			if (zaffre.getKeyboard().keyUp(KeyEvent.VK_RIGHT)) {
				dx = 0;
			}
			if (zaffre.getKeyboard().keyUp(KeyEvent.VK_UP)) {
				dy = 0;
			}
			if (zaffre.getKeyboard().keyUp(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN)) {
				dy = 0;
			}
		}
		move(dx, dy);
	}
	
	public void render(Graphics g) {
		g.setColor(Color.white);
		g.fillRect(x, y, w, h);
	}

}

Can anyone tell me how to remedy this problem? Thanks btw I hope I made this thread correctly. Im new.
