Pixel Perfect Movement?

how to do this?

for example, i find that if i set it to move 1px at a time, it is still randomly moving like 3px instead.

please help.

If you post a CAP file, I can check it out and see what's going on.

oh yeah, sorry. i shoulda in the first place

example cap

nothing facy at all.

i get the feeling i solved this once, but cant remember.

what i'm aiming for is being able to tap the move button and just move 1px, you know being able to control movement down at those low values.

sorta like in super mario bros, how you'd tap the left or right to adjust yourself so that you're just right on the platform.

hope that makes sense

This all comes down to an issue of reflexes - it's difficult to hold down a key for a single frame, thus the key may remain held for an additional one or two frames unintentionally causing unwanted movement.

My solution

I introduced a three frame timer into the equation to solve the problem. By moving once upon a key first being pressed, then utilizing a timer to delay movement a few frames before resuming movement, you can now move one pixel at a time and yet still move with a largely imperceptible input delay.

I hope this helps. :)

thanks linkman!

seemed to work just fine,

i'll keep trying with that method now.

thx
