I've been using allegro for some time, and the timer event worked in all my previous projects, but I don't know what happened this time, I want to move a piece as long as the game is going, but it isn't moving at all, so the timer event isn't working, why is that? Here is the code that reproduces the problem:-

int firstStuffXPos = 100;
int firstStuffYPos = 100;
ALLEGRO_EVENT_QUEUE *eventqueue;
ALLEGRO_DISPLAY *display;
ALLEGRO_TIMER *timer;
int width = 800;
int height = 600;
int FPS = 60;
 bool donePlaying = false;

class MyClass{
public:
int getXPos()
{
    return x;
}
int getYPos()
{
    return y;
}
int x;
int y;
 MyClass(int x, int y){
    this->x = x;
    this->y = y;
    stuffone;
}
ALLEGRO_BITMAP *stuffone;
};
MyClass stuff1[] = {
{ firstStuffXPos, firstStuffYPos},
};
void initialize(){
    al_init();
    if (!al_init()){
        std::cout << "Failed to initialize allegro5." << std::endl;
    }
    al_init_image_addon();
    if (!al_init_image_addon()){
        std::cout << "Failed to initialize image." << std::endl;
    }
    display = al_create_display(width, height);
    if (!display){
        std::cout << "Failed to create display." << std::endl;
    }
    al_install_keyboard();
    if (!al_install_keyboard()){
        std::cout << "Failed to install keyboard." << std::endl;
    }
    al_init_primitives_addon();

    eventqueue = al_create_event_queue();
    timer = al_create_timer(1.0 / FPS);


    al_register_event_source(eventqueue, al_get_display_event_source(display));
    al_register_event_source(eventqueue, al_get_keyboard_event_source());
    al_register_event_source(eventqueue, al_get_timer_event_source(timer));


    }
int main(){
initialize();
for (int nostuff = 0; nostuff < 1; nostuff++){
    stuff1[nostuff].stuffone = al_load_bitmap("blueblock.png");
}
    while (!donePlaying){
        al_clear_to_color(al_map_rgb(0, 0, 0));
        ALLEGRO_EVENT ev;
        al_wait_for_event(eventqueue, &ev);
        al_start_timer(timer);
        if (ev.type == ALLEGRO_EVENT_TIMER){
            firstStuffXPos += 5;
            firstStuffYPos += 5;
        }
        for (int i = 0; i < 1; i++){
            al_draw_bitmap(stuff1[i].stuffone, stuff1[i].getXPos(), stuff1[i].getYPos(), 0);
        }
        al_flip_display();
    }

    al_flip_display();
}
