How do I fix my animations

Hi,

I have my animations set the following way:

-When 8 direction is moving:

Player at 0 degrees, animation to right

Player at 90 degress, animation to down

Etc

But if the player is touching a wall, then the animations don't change. Here is a video of the issue:

What am I doing wrong?

I'm not sure what you mean by "Player at 0 degrees"

Are you comparing : Player.8Direction.MovingAngle ?

Hi!,

Here is a video of my event sheet. I don't know how to put pictures here <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_sad.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad">

why not just set your animation on key press ?

if key down pressed set animation down

if key right pressed set animation right

etc

?

I tried that, but if I'm pressing up, and then press right withou letting go up, the player would move up, but the animation would be facing right, and it looks worse than my current situation

ok, didn't think of that

can you change your angle so instead of within 0 degrees of required you change it to within 10 degrees ?

I will try to have a play and see if I can come up with something... not done much with 8 direction

Like I said..

If you use Player.8direction.movingangle it should work..

system is within angle : Player.8direction.movingangle is within 5 of 90 - play animation "down"

But it doesn't... can you take a look at my event sheet and tell me if there is something wrong, here it is

It only happens when you're against a wall? Could be your 8-Direction object isn't able to rotate because the corners of it's collision polygon are snagging. Try using LittleStain's suggestion of using the moveangle instead of the object angle, but also turn off Rotate Object in your 8-Direction behavior's properties.

This was totally the solution. Thank you man, and sorry I didn't understand earlier.
