How do I switch between platform directions?

marcoscodas for that you could do it like so

is touching button then move right else

not touching button move left

This is actually a pretty cool idea. I've actually compiled an Android export and have been finding that touch controls are not responsive enough as they are for the original concept. I may give this a go.

Thank you for the idea!

By the way, whatever idea I end up using, I'll credit whoever helped me with it in the final game. It's only fair

I cant code/test this at the moment, mobile things are all taken.

What about.

Touch > Is in touch

____Touch > Has Nth touch ... Nr = 1 <---- INVERTED

____System > trigger once while true

____________Action simulate Jump

____Touch > Has Nth touch ... Nr = 1

____System > trigger once while true

___________Action > player > Set Vetor X ... to .. Self.Platform.VectorX * -1

1 finger = jump

more then 1 finger = switch direction

should not lag at all

I think, out of da head.

Hmmm you think? There will be moments when these inputs will have to be made almost immediately.

Also, I'm doing my checks for change of direction every tick. Maybe that's screwing up with the lag?

Here's my code so far:

Feel free to try something that works better and post back.

Most welcome

You do not need every tick

What would you suggest, Lordshiva1948 ?

I did try a few other solutions but they weren't working for me.
