Touch Help

Hey Guys,

So lets say I have a plane and I want it to show it in the up position on the first tap, and the next tap it would be on the lower position.

When I try to set a variable to enable one or the other I can't get it to play nice.

If you have any suggestions or examples it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

~ Chase

Make a numeric variable and set it to 0.

Make an event that says on touch (or whatever you want) set variable to 1-variable.

Make another event that says if variable = 0 set plane position to top

else set plane position to bottom

I tried that prior but I think I must be coding it improperly. Thanks for the reply it verifies my theory

I have

Global Variable PlaneHeight = 1

Touch | On tap gesture | Arrow | Set animation frame to 1

System | PlaneHeight = 0 | System | Set PlaneHeight to 1

Touch | On tap gesture | Arrow | Set animation frame to 0

System | PlaneHeight = 1 | System | Set PlaneHeight to 0

This isn't working, where am I going wrong :/

If the image point is the same in both frames the image will change but the sprite will stay at that same X and Y coordinate.

Are you trying to do a flappy bird type game?

If so there is a good flappy bird demo in the C2 demos included with C2.

no, not another flappy bird game. Basically the image will get bigger then tap again making it smaller. It seems to only work once and then fails.

try using sub event to check variable

I will give that a try, thanks Lord, lol. God Bless, lol.

chimchase may Lord Shiva bless you & your loved ones

I still can't seem to get it, is there somebody that could possibly send / create an example?

Set Global Variable TAPPED=0

On Tap On Object Planesprite............................... Set Planesprite animation "UP"

TAPPED =0.......................................................................Set TAPPED =1

On Tap On Object Planesprite............................... Set Planesprite animation "DOWN"

TAPPED=1........................................................................Set TAPPED=0

If you are tapping very quickly as in a tap game or flappy game this may not work without a slight pause to give screen tap time to read next tap so add in a WAIT 0.3 Seconds at end of each event.
