    How would you set player tilt to the bullet behavior controls? I've been trying to get my helicopter sprite to tilt back or forth in the direction of travel, but the closest I've gotten in getting it to tilt in only one direction and it gets stuck there.

    System | Copter.Bullet.Angle of Motion = 0 | Copter | Rotate 1 degrees toward 10

    System | Copter.Bullet.Angle of Motion = 180 | Copter | Rotate 1 degrees toward -10

    System | Copter.Bullet.Speed = 0 | Copter | Rotate 1 degrees toward 0

    I don't see that doesn't work. Help, please?

    I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve, so I can't give a straight answer.

    But what I do see in your code is that you use = which means it will only rotate if the angle of motion is exactly 0.

    Seems to me that isn't what you want, but I can't be sure for I don't see what you are trying to do..

    I'm just trying to make a helicopter tilt slightly in the direction of travel. It's a side scrolling rescue game using your bullet behavior controls. So if the helicopter moves forward, it tilts forward and if it moves back, it tilts back. No tilting on up or down movement.

    If I can't use exactly 0, how do I express a range of numbers and make it work?

  • How about greater than or equal to, and less than or equal to instead of =. so <= or >=

  • BluePhaze

    I'm confused. Since angle of motion is circular, isn't everything greater or lesser than a number?

    I tried it with 2 contitions each:

    If Copter.Bullet.AngleOfMotion Lesser or equal to 45 and

    If Copter.Bullet.AngleOf Motion is Greater or equal to 315 then

    Copter Rotate 1 degree toward 10

    If Copter.Bullet.AngleOfMotion Lesser or equal to 225 and

    If Copter.Bullet.AngleOf Motion is Greater or equal to 135 then

    Copter Rotate 1 degree toward -10

    If Copter.Bullet.Speed Less than 2 then Copter Rotate 1 degree toward 0

    That didn't work though.

    Edit: RamPackWobble was able to help me in another thread. If anyone is looking to add tilt functionality to the bullet behavior, please view the thread here:

    Thumbstick with tilt

    It doesn't have to be used with only a helicopter. Having a character slightly tilt forward when they run might give the impression they are running faster.

    Thanks again to LittleStain for making these amazing thumbstick controls! I've tried so many others and these are my favorites!

  • really helpful.thnx LittleStain

  • Thanks! One can never have enough good Karma..

    Is there a plugin needed for this? I cannot recreate your thumbstick with the 8 direction behavior. I have tried it on several blank construct 2 projects.

    No plugin is needed.

    The 8-direction implementation is in the capx and it works as expected.
