  • Hello!

    I'm a beginner. I'm experimenting with a 2D platformer project.

    Someone can tell me how I can switch from walking animation to running animation and back.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Depends what the conditions are for running, but you add a condition like 'key is down' then set animation to RUN.

  • Hello.

    I will not give you a direct answer.

    It is impossible to answer this question quickly in a nutshell.

    Because interconnectedness follows from this.

    If you answer it, you will have to write an article.

    Wouldn't it be better for you to start learning with the built-in lessons of Construct 3 try it step by step

    It's impossible to answer? It's changing one animation for another m8

  • Are you using a trigger to run? Like a button or just the behaviour acceleration?

    Edit: If you have platform behaviour you can compare Player.Platform.Speed ... lets say that If Player.Platform.Speed > 300 Play Running animation and If Player.Platform.Speed <= 300 Play Walk animation

    You will not be able to explain it as you yourself understand, because there must be a basic understanding to understand what you are talking about.

    You need to have a basic knowledge of animation.

  • Thanks for the reply everyone!

    So, I made an animation to walk and an animation to run. I want that when I press a button (X box controller shoulder trigger) the character to go on with the run animation until I release the button. It all works, too, but my running animation doesn’t finish. The character slides with the first frame of the animation.

  • Did you set "Loop" to "On" in the animation settings?

  • Yes, I set loop and int the preview show the full animation in loop.

  • In that case instead of "Button is down", use "On button pressed", and add "Run animation is not playing" condition to events 3 and 4 so "Walk" animation doesn't overide "Run" animation

    Edit : in event 9, add a sub-event checking analog stick axis so if player if not moving, set the animation back to "Idle"

  • Ok. I feel so stupid. How can I add that "Run animation is not playing" condition to events 3 and 4"?

  • Add "Animation is playing" condition and invert it
