Code help needed.

[Qsmash]

Code: Select all

xvelocity+=0.1;
if(xvelocity==0)
{
    xvelocity=0;
}

I'm trying to make it so that my character will slow down to a complete stop, but I did something wrong...

[DST]

Code: Select all

xvelocity*=0.99;
if(xvelocity<0.1){
xvelocity=0;}

will make a character slow to a stop.

[Qsmash]

That didn't quite work. It just keeps going.

also, this for key up event.

[Hblade]

you could try this

Code: Select all

if (xvelocity>0)
{
xvelocity = xvelocity - .99;
}
if (xvelocity<0.01)
{
xvelocity = 0;
}

That wouldn't work either, as Qsmash is trying to put this code into the keyup event. This runs only on keyup, so it is not practical for slowing down. I would suggest using a variable to signify the keyup. This way you can put the script DST has in draw, with the variable as a condition.

you could try this

Code: Select all

if (xvelocity>0)
{
xvelocity = xvelocity - .99;
}
if (xvelocity<0.01)
{
xvelocity = 0;
}


Add zeros before decimals Hblade. 0.99 not .99. Please practice good coding, especially when giving examples to others.

Cmon, fuzz, lighten up!

But seriously, the events are designed for you to change variables, not so much to actually enter code.

The main portion of your actor's events end up in DrawActor.

It slowed down a bit, but if leave the key down long enough it wont.

umm...here's something else I probably should've mentioned.

Code: Select all

xvelocity+=0.1;

If you haven't noticed....I don't really understand codes to well.
