Problem with movement

[Jastro]

I have a Problem with this animation, i want to do when you press "1" detect the position of character and attack for left or right, but i can do that, for me only work when press A or D + 1.

Example : http://www.gamematch.es/flash/luffy2.swf
Use A and D for Move and 1 For try to attack

The code is that

onClipEvent(load) {
lufpos=0; //Character position
golpe = false; //Check its character its in combat
} 
onClipEvent (enterFrame) { // if character hit with the other npc come back
    if (this.hitTest(_root.coco)) {
        this._x = _x - 21;
    } 
}
onClipEvent(keyUp) { // Stand mode Animation for detect left or right
if (Key.getCode() == 65 || Key.getCode() == 68) { // si suelta A o D, detiene la animación
if (lufpos == 1) { // Si está mirando a la derecha
    gotoAndPlay(1);// XX = Frame del muñeco parado mirando a la derecha
     lufpos=0;
        } else { // lufpos == 2
            gotoAndPlay(12); // YY = Frame del muñeco parado mirando a la derecha
            lufpos=0;
        }
      }

    }
onClipEvent(keyDown) { // Detect character uses 1 for attack 
if (Key.getCode() == 49) {
if (lufpos == 1){ //Animation for right
    if (golpe == false){
    gotoAndPlay(38);
    golpe = true;
}
}
if (lufpos == 2){ //Animation for left
    if (golpe == false){
    gotoAndPlay(47);
    golpe = true;
}
}
}
if (Key.getCode() == 65) { //Run mode Left animation
    if (lufpos <=1) {   
    gotoAndPlay(24);
    lufpos = 2;
    _x = _x - 7;
} else {
    _x = _x - 7;
}
}
if (Key.getCode() == 68){ //Run mode Right animation
    if (lufpos == 0){
        gotoAndPlay(62);
        lufpos = 1;
     _x = _x + 7;
        }
    if (lufpos == 2) {
     gotoAndPlay(62);
     lufpos = 1;
     _x = _x + 7;
    } else {
    _x = _x + 7;
}
}
}

PD: Sorry so much for my bad english.

Thanks for your help

Hello, and welcome to FlashKit forums

First of all, I wanna say, LUFFY FOR THE WIN

Now, for the code. I don't really like that way of yours, so I'm gonna rewrite the whole code to something easier, okay?

For this code, you only need to make animation Right-side, the Actionscript will flip/turn the movieclip the other way, when running left or even attacking left. Just make sure that every animation inside the character movieclip, is inside another movieclip. For example, if gotoAndStop(2); - on Frame 2 inside Luffy Movieclip, there will be another movieclip with the Run Right animation:

onClipEvent(load) {
    lufpos = 0;
    golpe = false;
    mover = true;
    speed = 7;
    xscale = this._xscale;
} 

onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
    if (this.hitTest(_root.coco)) {
        this._x -= 21; // change this to 7 and see what happens
    }
    if(Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT)){
        if(golpe == false && mover == true){
            this._x += speed;
            this._xscale = xscale;
            golpe = true;
            gotoAndStop(2); // run animation for RIGHT
        }
    } else {
        golpe = false;
    }
    if(Key.isDown(Key.LEFT)){
        if(golpe == false && mover == true){
            this._x -= speed;
            this._xscale = xscale*-1; // change movieclip to LEFT
            golpe = true;
            gotoAndStop(2); // run animation for LEFT
        }
    } else {
        golpe = false;
    }
    if(Key.isDown(49)){
        if(golpe == false){
            gotoAndStop(3); // attacking animation
            mover = false;
        }
    } else {
        mover = true;
    }
    if(!Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) && !Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) && !Key.isDown(49)){ // if none of those keys are being pressed
        gotoAndStop(1); // idle animation (doing nothing, standing)
    }
}

This is another way of doing what you did, but in my opinion, it's better and more effective. I hope this helps - and LUFFY IS AWESOME ^^

PS: Make sure to make a movieclip inside the Luffy movieclip, for each action - a movieclip on Frame 1, for standing still, movieclip on Frame 2, for running Right, and movieclip on Frame 3, with the Attacking animation

Thanks for your answer, thanks a lot for that code i try to do that and yes Luffy its the best D: when i finish the game i tell you.

Cya!

Nig one thing, i have the animation for Standing in Left & Standing in Right,

But that code:

if(!Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) && !Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) && !Key.isDown(49)){ // if none of those keys are being pressed
        gotoAndStop(1); // idle animation (doing nothing, standing)

its only for 1 animation no? How can i do for detect the position of Luffy?



Thanks a lot for your help and i think Luffy its the BEST

Then break up the code to this:

if(!Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) && !Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) && !Key.isDown(49) && _currentframe == 3){ // if none of those keys are being pressed, and the currentframe is 3 (run animation right)
        gotoAndStop(1); // idle animation for right (doing nothing, standing)
    }
    if(!Key.isDown(Key.RIGHT) && !Key.isDown(Key.LEFT) && !Key.isDown(49) && _currentframe == 4){ // if none of those keys are being pressed, and the currentframe is 4 (run animation left)
        gotoAndStop(2); // idle animation for left (doing nothing, standing)
    }

Anymore questions, feel free to ask

Again thanks a lot, for now its ok, if i have some any question i tell you

[Jastro]

Sorry for double post


I have some Strange problem with the code, i have some problems i try to explain to you


- Now when you press Key Right or Key Left, luffy walking so strange, i think he stopping all the time :S

- When you press "1" the animation of combat repeats all the time :S

- Now when i use "1" for attack Cocodrile, luffy moves back :S

- Now i have inside of luffy movieclip 3 its the animation for run to the left, and 4 to the right, but only work if in the code i put animation 3 for left and animation 3 for the right.


That errors its so strange i added to you my .fla i think i am doing something wrong. Can you see the code and look what i am doing wrong?

Thanks for your help

You know what I did? I rewrote the whole code :P

It works now, but I don't know if you understand it or not - I've explained some small parts, lol. If you want explanation on some parts, please ask

ORE WA KAIZOKU OU NI NARU

PS: I can abit spanish, had classes in 3 years - that's why I understood some parts of your code xD

[Jastro]

Thanks a Lot Nig, now work perfectly, my english its really bad, but if i see the code can i understand more best. Really thanks!

I LOVE THE NEW SOUND

[Nig 13]

Glad you like it

I put an Attack Sound too, but that caused the Flash to lag (stop) abit when attacking, so I removed it

Anyways, if you have more questions in the future, please ask, and I'll try my best to help you
