Questions about actor movement

tjunchye

Hi guys,

I'm having a movement problem with my current project. I spent the whole day trying to look for the solution in the forums however I couldn't find any. So I hope if you guys can help me. Here is the situation...

I created an invisible touch movement actor on the left side and right side. So when the touch of the actor is released, the hero actor will move to the spot where the touch was released. The problem lies when the hero is moving. If the touch movement is pressed (not released) again, the hero actor will move to the new position. Is there a way to make the hero actor completing it's action before doing a new action?

I'm using 'Interpolate' for the movement.

Thanks in advance!

Try this:

Change attribute game.newX (real) to self.position.X
Change attribute game.newY (real) to self.position.Y

If touch is pressed AND attribute self.position.X=game.newX AND attribute self.position.Y=game.newY
Change attribute game.newX to game.mouse.position.X
Change attribute game.newY to game.mouse.position.Y
Interpolate self.position.X to game.newX
Interpolate self.position.Y to game.newY

If you're using touch positions instead of mouse positions, just substitute them above.
