```
	if(Phaser.Input.Keyboard.JustDown(this.X)){
		//do something
	}

```

or you can set a boolean and set to **true** if it’s already been clicked, once your process is finished, reset it to **false**

**this.input.keyboard.on(‘some\_key’, function(event){** will fire as long as your finger is on the key (I found this out the hard way ☹ ). while on the contrary, **Keyboard.JustDown** only fires once
