Hi all game salad users,
I'm trying to make an actor animate according to the direction its moving.
i.e. if its moving right it will animate(D-images)-if its moving left it will animate(E-images)
I checked everywhere and the only one is tshirtbooth's
I checked tshirtbooth's tutorial (self.motion.linearvelocity)>0
But it only works if the actor is constrained to the touch by the "move to" attribute.
It not working cause I'm using "constrain" to touch position. I tried also to use change attribute but it seems to be only working with "move to"
Any insights to how I can achieve this using constrain or change attribute.
Also I have noticed that the above attributes are slightly different when using "mouse button down" or "touch is pressed", right?
Thank you for your help
