  • ...hold down two keys at once to move?

    So atm, my character moves with WASD, the usual. But when I, say, press W and A, to make my character go NW, it goes in the complete opposite direction.

    Is there a way to program my character to move properly with WASD, and when two keys are held down it moves in the correct in-between direction?

  • Could u put a screensplash of your "code"?

  • Is your character using the 8Direction behavior, gomotion100?

  • Here:

    • Insert a "Keyboard" object.
    • Make an event: Keyboard -> Key Is Down -> "W"
    • Make an action: Player (or whatever you are calling it) -> 8Direction -> Simulate 8Direction pressing Up
    • Make an event: Keyboard -> Key Is Down -> "A"
    • Make an action: Player -> 8Direction -> Simulate 8Direction pressing Left
    • Make an event: Keyboard -> Key is Down -> "S"
    • Make an action: Player -> 8Direction -> Simulate 8Direction pressing Down
    • Make an event: Keyboard -> Key is Down -> "D"
    • Make an action: Player -> 8Direction -> Simulate 8Direction pressing Right

    Also, check in your properties panel and make sure the "Directions" property is set to 8 Directions.

    Does that help?
