  I thought of using the simulate control in the beginning but the only chose I have in the scroll men� are: Left, Right, Jump (and I haven't understood a way to add more choises yet) I'm using Construct 2 and I never used Construct 1 so I don't know what is different. >.<

  If I set vector X to 0 the character won't stop

  Yann

  [invert] Down arrow is down

  on Down arrow released is the idea?

  I tried and it works but partially because the character won't stop immediatly (but it stops)

  ...but..

  if I keep pressed the left(or right) arrow and (while keeping it pressed) press the down arrow and quickly release it (the down arrow), the effect is that the animation goes and the character as well since it keeps moving with the wrong animation instead of being still >.<

  I had the same effect with

  Keyboard: Down arrow is down

  Keyboard: Right arrow is down

  + Sprite: Simulate Platform pressing Left

  (the idea was that the opposite direction would have stopped the movement since before posting I tried both vector x, max speed, accelleration and ignoring user imput but nothing seems work well untill now >.<)

  P.S. However..

  the best result is mixing both your answers xD

  Keyboard: Down arrow is down

  -> Sprite: Start ignoring Platform user input

  -> Sprite: Set Platform vector x to 0

  Keyboard: On Down arrow released

  -> Sprite: Stop ignoring Platform user input

  In this way someway it works ;P

  Thanks for the suggestion ;)

  by the way, there is a way to put a "or" in a condition? O.o

  I mean, I'm using the platform behavior and what I'm trying to accomplish is to stopping my character from moving forward (or backward) when I press the down arrow on my keyboard (even if I'm still pressing the right arrow or the left one) and as long as I've the down arrow pressed he should be stopped from moving into other directions.

  I'm new to this editor and what I'm looking for (but I still can't figure where it is) is a command to simply stop the directional movements (and only the directional movements).. or a best way to go on :P

  have you ever had this problem? (damn crouch function >,<)
