Very new to game dev in general but im having hard time programming my main character engine. Currently this is my code (jpeg attached).
Main problems im having are;
if you just hold up he keeps jumping rather then stopping the button press and making the user press up again.
Animation on jump only changes for a second then goes back to the X movement animation.
Space key which is gonna be “shoot” doesn’t change and hold an animation either.
If someone could help or even better give me some code to make a sprite behave like megaman (nes version) that would be great. If i cant work this out i have to switch to RPG Maker .

Put Do = 1 to Variable jumping in the actions when up key is pressed and add Variable jumping = 0 to the conditions . So you should have:
Up key is pressed || Set linear speed;
Linear velocity on y = 0 || pause animation
Variable jumping = 0 || Do = 1 to variable jumping
Then have another event which is simply:
Up key is NOT pressed - Do = 0 to Variable jumping
The jump animation needs.
Do = 0 to animation frame of mainman
Play animation of mainman
Make sure that you have more than one frame in the animation and change the time between frames to a suitable number. The default is 1 (i.e. 1 second). You will probably need a value more like 0.1 in there.

Same problem. You need to do:
Do = 0 to animation frame of mainman
Play animation of mainman
In future, it will be more helpful to upload your actual program than to take a screenshot of it. Then I can load up your code in GD and edit it instead of having to write it all out myself in GD.
