Ability CoolDown

markov

Hello!Lets say i want my Player to have a special ability (something like to become a rocket for 2 secs),i finally made it to make the thrust effect on my player and everything looks cool,when im hitting the space button(space=player becomes rocket and fly)my player can fly for 2 seconds.But what i want is that if i ll try to press space again i want this ability to be immune to my control for 5 seconds,and only after 5 seconds he can fly again.Is this possible?

yes

make an attribute able to fly? bool true

when attribute able to fly is true and touch is press, do something and change attribute able to fly to false

when attribute is false set timer after 5 secs change it to true

Thanks for the reply!I tottaly got the logic but apparently i cant get it to work this is what i did after i made the RocketReady attribute:Rule(when i press space)-->change attribute(self.RocketReady To False),Timer(For 0.6 secs Accelerate{rocket is flying for 0.6 secs}),NEW timer outside the previous one after 5 secs change attribute RocketReady to true.

Still the same,nothing changes,space works every time any thoughts?

well maybe you should put the second rule in the other rule

so when attribute is false put it in the timer and set for after 5 secs change to true

I WAS MAKING A COOLDOWN IN MY PROJECT THIS IS WHAT I DID TO GET IT TO WORK

You do this

Rule:

receives a key press space is down

do:

spawn actor astroid in front of actor

change attribute set spawn cooldown to false

timer after 3 seconds run to completion

change attribute set spawn cooldown to true
