Help with Actor's movement

Gamer2125

Hi I am trying to create an actor who is continuously moving with constant velocity in particular direction. But when you tap on the screen it starts moving in the direction of tap with same velocity.

For eg. when game starts actor will move at 90 degree with velocity of 150 and the moment I tap screen on right side, it changes its direction and starts moving in that particular direction with same velocity of 150.

I would really appreciate if anyone could help me creating this rule.

Do you want to make the actor move to the right when you tap the right side of the screen? Or will the actor move towards the touch at an angle?

Sorry for late response. Yes, I want actor to move towards the touch at an angle. I would really appreciate if you could explain me how to create that functionality.

Create interger attribute: MoveDirection

Lets say:

• 1 = left
• 2 = right

Create 2 actors: Left and Right

Make the actors cover the corresponding side of the screen and add rules if touch is pressed change attribute game.movedirection to 1 or 2 depending on what actors your changing

Then go into the player actor and

• if attribute game.movedirection = 1 move left
• if attribute game.movedirection = 2 move right
