Hello all, I am making a top down adventure game, think 2d Zelda games.
I have the movement set up so the player moves in a 32x32 grid which is nice.
I have the player displaying the correct side of their body when they move, which is nice.
The only issue I have is the movement animation. If I press left, his movement animation plays to move one step left. If I press right then the animation plays to move right.
If I press the same direction twice, it only plays the animation once and then slides across the ground.
At the minute when a direction is pressed, I change the number of the animation to that direction, rotate, and set the coordinates for the grid. I have tried having the animations on loop but they just constantly walk, I have tried not having them on loop and having a play animation event.
Over all I am not certain what I need to be doing.
Make sure the animation only get set once when the key is pressed. If you set the animation whenever the key is pressed without a trigger once, it will constantly play the first frame.
If you can’t work it out and it still doesn’t animate, share a screen snip of your events (as @AndyJV requested).
