Allow only 4 way movement
Wall Collision

Hey guys, I've finally did it! no moonwalk, no glitches, the perfect anti-moonwalk for RPG games First, make your player, add event ->Draw Actor -> Script Editor, and put this script in.

First, make a variable called STATE, then place this code in Draw Actor

Code: Select all

char *key=GetKeyState();

if (key[KEY_UP] == 1 && key[KEY_DOWN] == 0){
    if (STATE!=90){
        if (STATE!=10){
        STATE = 10;
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "WalkUp", FORWARD);
                  }
    y-=3;
                  }
    if (STATE == 90){
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "StandingUp", FORWARD);
                    }
                                           }
if (key[KEY_UP] == 0 && key[KEY_DOWN] == 1){
    if (STATE!=91){
        if (STATE!=11){
        STATE = 11;
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "WalkingDown", FORWARD);
                  }
    y+=3;
                  }
    if (STATE == 91){
           ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "StandingDown", FORWARD);
                       }
                                           }
if (key[KEY_LEFT] == 1 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 0 && key[KEY_UP] == 0 && key[KEY_DOWN] == 0){
    if (STATE!=92){
        if (STATE!=12){
        STATE = 12;
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "WalkingLeft", FORWARD);
                  }
                  x-=3;
                  }
                  if (STATE == 92){
                      ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "StandingLeft", FORWARD);
                                  }
                                              }
if (key[KEY_LEFT] == 0 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1 && key[KEY_UP] == 0 && key[KEY_DOWN] == 0){
    if (STATE!=93){
        if (STATE!=13){
        STATE = 13;
        ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "WalkRight", FORWARD);
                  }
                  x+=3;
                  }
                  if (STATE == 93){
                      ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "StandingRight", FORWARD);
                                  }
                                              }
if (key[KEY_UP] == 1 && key[KEY_DOWN] == 1 && STATE == 10){
    STATE = 40;
                                                          }
if (key[KEY_UP] == 1 && key[KEY_DOWN] == 1 && STATE == 11){
    STATE = 41;
                                                          }
if (key[KEY_LEFT] == 1 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1 && STATE == 12){
    STATE = 42;
                                                             }
if (key[KEY_LEFT] == 1 && key[KEY_RIGHT] == 1 && STATE == 13){
    STATE = 43;
                                                             }
if (STATE == 40){
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "StandingUp", FORWARD);
                }
if (STATE == 41){
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "StandingDown", FORWARD);
                }
if (STATE == 42){
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "StandingLeft", FORWARD);
                }
if (STATE == 43){
    ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "StandingRight", FORWARD);
                }


There you have it! I'm enhancing it as well so keep looking for the updates

Here's an Example of Version 1.2

Sweet.

Thanks Updated

Thats pretty long...and too much of IF on draw actor. Thats bad for performance.
I have a simpler version

- make integer variables : "direct", "walk", "anim"
- player-DrawActor :

Code: Select all

if(walk==1){
if(direct==0){
y-=3;
if(anim==0){ChangeAnimation("Event Actor","walk_up",FORWARD);anim=1;}}
if(direct==1){
x+=3;
if(anim==0){ChangeAnimation("Event Actor","walk_right",FORWARD);anim=1;}}
if(direct==2){
y+=3;
if(anim==0){ChangeAnimation("Event Actor","walk_down",FORWARD);anim=1;}}
if(direct==3){
x-=3;
if(anim==0){ChangeAnimation("Event Actor","walk_left",FORWARD);anim=1;}}}

- player-Keydown :

Code: Select all

direct=0; //for up key
//or
direct=1; //for right key
walk=1;

- player-Keyup :

Code: Select all

walk=0;
//add the stop animation depend on direct value here

- player-AnimationFinish :

Code: Select all

anim=0;

This is my standard method. Used on most my game, as well as Winter Blast

Yes but your method does have one moonwalk glitch. If you press a key before his animation is done he will float in that direction for a few frames before he switches his animation It's still nice for such a small script congrats bee

Ohh...that one. its easy to fix.
Maybe something like this :
Player-Keydown-Up

Code: Select all

direct=0;
walk=1;
ChangeAnimation("Event Actor","walk up",NO_CHANGE);

Etc for the other keydown, but
Dunno...
Im away of computer

k Anyways hope the script comes in handy for people

Im not going to fix and publish it...

Oh ... your script is much simpler though :O, Anyways, BeeAnt, any idea how I can make a 1-grid movement system with this script?

If you use Bee-Ant's script, you might want to click on 'wait for frame action' when you click add, that way it will only walk the way you want when the animation is finished, right?

I'm not Mr. nice guy who will publish his code to everyone (only for certain people)
I'm wicked

Talking about pokemon huh???
Im also going to use that system for the new Winter Blast

It may be :
1. Remove the KeyUp event
2. Add this code to the AnimationFinish

Code: Select all

walk=0;

3. Add this code to Draw Actor

Code: Select all

if(walk==0)
{
if(direct==0)ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "stop up",FORWARD);
if(direct==1)ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "stop right",FORWARD);
if(direct==2)ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "stop down",FORWARD);
if(direct==3)ChangeAnimation("Event Actor", "stop left",FORWARD);
}

Hey nice bee O.O

Really? I havent tested it yet.
Also, edit your Keydown event to :

Code: Select all

if(walk==0){
direct=yourdirectvalue;
walk=1;}

To avoid a direct turn.

The next job is how you adjust your walking animation to be finished in 1 tile lenght.

Good luck

Thanks

This is what i usually use. not made by me though Novie made it a ways back 2 .geds ones with diagoanol movement the other is 4 way (only faces 4 ways just actual movement)
