Keyboard movement problem

[Mehrdad]

Hi
I'm making a platformer and I use 0 and 1 to 'k' for simple gravity

Code: ags

int k = GetWalkableAreaAt (cCharacter.x-GetViewportX(), cCharacter.y-GetViewportY());

Also I use KeyboardMovement module too for combine walking and turn character.As this module don't support out of walkable area I use this code:

Code: ags

  if ((IsKeyPressed(eKeyLeftArrow)==true)&&(IsKeyPressed(eKeyRightArrow)!=true)) cCharacter.x-=1;
  if ((IsKeyPressed(eKeyRightArrow)==true)&&(IsKeyPressed(eKeyLeftArrow)!=true)) cCharacter.x+=1;

Everything is ok but if I press left or right and falling to down and stand up without release left or right key, character glide without walking and when release keyboard it's fine and character continue walking without glide.
How can i fix it?
I'm Appreciate for any help

I'm certainly the last person on this forum who can give advice.

But a single boolean could make the difference..

Code: ags

bool on_ground = true;

Sorry but I used boolean too.My main problem is when press left or right key without release it after falling and stand up.that I have glide instead walking.If I release key anythings is normal.
I think I have to disable line 1 and 2 when I have play animation falling and stand up and after that I enable it.or disable left or right key when I have falling or stand up. But  unfortunately I don't know how can I write it.

Maybe add a view check?

Hello Mehrdad. Try using Character.Animating Property. If I understand it correctly, this might be what you're looking for.

E: If you don't mind, can you please post that part of the script where the character performs the animation?

[Mehrdad]

Yes of course.This is my code

Code: ags

 KeyboardMovement.SetMode(eKeyboardMovement_Pressing);
}
  bool l = true;
  bool faceM = 1; // direction left or right
// put anything you want to happen every game cycle in here
function repeatedly_execute() 
{
  int k = GetWalkableAreaAt (cCharacter.x-GetViewportX(), cCharacter.y-GetViewportY());

 
   //Left and Right

  if ((IsKeyPressed(eKeyLeftArrow)==true)&&(IsKeyPressed(eKeyRightArrow)!=true)){ cCharacter.x-=1;faceM=0;}
  if ((IsKeyPressed(eKeyRightArrow)==true)&&(IsKeyPressed(eKeyLeftArrow)!=true)){ cCharacter.x+=1;faceM =1;}
  
  //Falling and Stand up
  if  ((k == 0)&&(l==true)){if(faceM==1){ cCharacter.LockView(2);
  cCharacter.Animate(1, 0, 0, eBlock, eForwards);cCharacter.UnlockView();l=false;}}
  if  ((k == 0)&&(l==false)){if(faceM==1){ cCharacter.LockView(2);
  cCharacter.Animate(2, 0, 0, eBlock, eForwards);cCharacter.y+=10;cCharacter.UnlockView();}}
  if ((k == 1)&&(l==false)) {l=true;if(faceM==1){cCharacter.LockView(2);
  cCharacter.Animate(3, 0, 0, eBlock, eForwards);cCharacter.UnlockView();cCharacter.Walk(cCharacter.x+2, cCharacter.y, eBlock);}else if(faceM==0)
  {cCharacter.LockView(2);
  cCharacter.Animate(10, 0, 0, eBlock, eForwards);cCharacter.UnlockView(); cCharacter.Walk(cCharacter.x-2, cCharacter.y, eBlock);}}
  
  if  ((k == 0)&&(l==true)) {if(faceM==0){ cCharacter.LockView(2);
  cCharacter.Animate(8, 0, 0, eBlock, eForwards);cCharacter.UnlockView();l=false;}}
  if  ((k == 0)&&(l==false)){if(faceM==0){ cCharacter.LockView(2);
  cCharacter.Animate(9, 0, 0, eBlock, eForwards);cCharacter.y+=10;cCharacter.UnlockView();}}

loop 1,2,3 is: ready to falling,fall,stand up for right
loop 8,9,10 is:ready to falling,fall,stand up for left

OK
Problem solved but not complete.That take many times.It's enough for me at the moment.
And another question about moving.I used walkable area with 'int k' for horizontal obstacle(please see first post). Is it possible use same walkable area for left and right obstacle? My mean is character go to stop when collision with walkable area.
appreciate for any help or suggestions

Wouldn't regions work?
