Key releasing

[CyberP1708]

I'm using this code :

Code: Select all

if (event.KeyInput.PressedDown)
  getMainCharacter()->Move();
else
  getMainCharacter()->Stop();

The main character should move when you stay on the key and stop when you release the key but it doesn't work and as there are no "isKeyPressed" function or something like that, I don't know how to do

You should use an array reflecting the state of each key. There is a FAQ entry for this :

Your method uses event.KeyInput.PressedDown just like mine
It still doesn't work as event.KeyInput.PressedDown seems to be always true (so I can't detect if the user stopped pressing a key)

[Quall]

You have to define a key to be pressed. Something like this:

Code: Select all

if (event.KeyInput.PressedDown)
     {
     if(event.KeyInput.Key==KEY_UP)
          getMainCharacter()->Move();  
     }
else
     getMainCharacter()->Stop();

I would suggest you do what metalseb said though, is better for movement. Although, the animation might keep repeating the first frame over and over. I think that was a problem I came across.
