Player Self rotation fix/rule

Dantipple

Hi Everyone,

I have a actor which moves along platforms and jumps - I've added a rotation rule but I only want this rule to apply when the object is in the air and not touching the platforms, does anyone have any ideas how to do this?

Thanks

make a new integer game.attribute called touch
create a new rule on your actor that moves.

If actor overlaps or collides with platforms
Change attribute game.touch to 1
Otherwise
Change attribute game.touch to 0

Put another condition on your rotation rule
game.touch is = 0
then rotate

Cheers dude

Wingmansapps - I've input the code and it works a treat but my next problem is the actor stays at the rotation when it lands - how do I go about resetting this back to its orginal? I've tried rotate to angle, rotate etc and end up with some funny results.

You help is appreciated!

If game.touch is = 1
Change attribute self.rotation to 0
