Help with Game Loop
«

So I was working on game states a few weeks ago and I couldn't get the game states to transition. after look at the code and walking threw it, I never render I'm stuck within my loop and I don't remember what I changed.
Can anyone see what is wrong with this game loop? I'm stuck in the nested while loop.

Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. It may not be difficult to store up in the mind a vast quantity of facts within a comparatively short time, but the ability to form judgments requires the severe discipline of hard work and the tempering heat of experience and maturity.

currentState() == nullptr maybe?
Otherwise just execute your code step by step, watch the value of the variables involved in the condition, and simply see what happens.
