On release for keyboards.

I want to make it so that when a player releases a key it jumps according to a charger. The only problem is I cant figure out how to do an on release for a keyboard I didn't see an option for it in the menus...

1. make a player holds key down condition

2.right click it, then click invert condition (this means the event will trigger when the player is NOT doing that action, (holding the key down in your case))

that is how I had it coded but it still dose not work right because it will keep doing the action as long as it is not down.which is a problem since it is for jumping. where as on release will do it when the button is released. Thank you for the reply though.

Add a 'trigger once while true' to that 'key is not down' condition.

Arima's solution sound better though ^^.

I tried Arimas solution still no luck... Ill try yours as soon as I can Broo.

You could also try adding a private varable.

In pseudo code:

+On pressing key (whatever)

-Set "player" private variable "jump" to 1

+On not pressing key (whatever)

+"player" private variable "jump" equals 1

-Do stuff

+"player" jump animation is finished

-Set "player" private variable "jump" to 0

I've reuploaded file:

Here both methods (using PV as memory and using Trigger Once & Invert) work.

Add a 'trigger once while true' to that 'key is not down' condition.

this will work fine.

^It didnt work

Post your .cap so someone can have a look.

I did Broo's version with the PVs and it finally worked. Thank you all for the help.
