Platform Problems

Im still very new to construct and would like to know how to change the default shift key (jump) to space bar?

Set the 'default controls' property to 'no' then use events to call the 'simulate control' action. E.g.: On spacebar pressed - simulate control 'jump'.

Thanks problem solved

Hello, I'm having the same problem, and I do get to jump with spacebar with that solution, _BUT_ I lost the other controls, Left & Right.

Do you know how to resolve?

Thanks for helping a noob :)

Same way then simulate control left and right !

on left arrow simulate platform left ... etc.

To simulate left and right you need to use the "Left arrow key is down" (i.e. the continuously true event) rather than the "On left arrow key pressed" (i.e. triggered).

I found it afterwards :)

thanks anyway

theses foruns are really usefull :)

Hi, sorry to sort of hi-jack the thread, but having a similar issue with the platform behaviour.

I have a sprite set with the behaviours "scroll to" and "platform" with the default controls enabled. I have other sprites with the behaviour "solid".

When I play/preview the game I am not able to jump using the up key (I assumed that was the default). So I changed the default controls option to no and i made a custom event to simulate jump etc, and now I can jump, but only the first time. Any ideas on whats wrong?

Sorry for the quick double post, but I have now solved this issue. Was pressing the wrong button for the default controls.

I will hang my head in shame in a dark corner now.
