jumping

[elite]

hi, again, i would like to know how to stop making the player jump continously when plressing the space bar too much times. Because in my game, if i keep pressing the space bar, the player keeps going higher and higher, and i dont want any idiot that plays my game to just keep jumping around and skipping the enemies. Any suggestions?

Thanks

make a variable called canjump.

For your player goes:
Collision -> top side -> platform -> Script Editor ->

Code: Select all

canjump=1;


Draw actor ->

Code: Select all

yvelocity += 1;

Key down -> space -> repeat: NO -> Script Editor ->

Code: Select all

if(canjump==1)
{yvelocíty = - 15; canjump = 0;}

click on script menu bar than add an actor variable called 'canjump'.on your player event add a colision event relating to a ground with a script editor than :

"canjump = 1;"

and your player key down event whatever you choosy jump button and make the script say

if(canjump==1)
{
yvelocity = -8;
canjump =0;
}


here is the answer

Platform is a GROUND Actor, where your player stand...
