Problem with buttons

Abrigaito

I need help with this, I really don't know what I'm doing wrong. So there is the actor in the center then a right and left button. When I press the right button the actor moves but it doesn't stop and then the button can't be pressed again, same for the left button.

I want to press the button so the actor move one step then stop then do it again and again.

Here is the template:

Did you use Move behavior? Maybe try Move To or Interpolate, instead.

Hope that helps.

Well I want the buttons to work like CodeMonkey's template

I followed that template, but it doesn't work the same and it doesn't matter if I use accelerate, move or move to it always do the same thing.

It seems my template is not working I'll put the rules:

Created two boolean game attributes Left and Right

Player.....

Attribute - game.right is true

Move right
Speed 50

Attribute - game.left is true

Move left
Speed 50

Right button.....

actor receives event touch is pressed

change attribute game.right to... true

Left button......

actor receives event touch is pressed

change attribute game.left to... true

Simple solution:

In your right and left buttons, put an otherwise statement in each

Right: Otherwise, change attribute game.right to false

Left: Otherwise, change attribute game.left to false

Yep!

Whenever you use a template as a guide or to copy and paste from be sure to ALWAYS check the otherwise sections. They really ought to make a little icon that appears when the otherwise is used because it is so easy to forget to look there!

Thank you =D I didn't check the "Otherwise" option I knew it was something simple, but I just couldn't find the error.
