Guizmus:

Just looked at your solutions.

Amazing.

Thank you.

I Had wondered about functions, but didn't know where to start.

Thank you ever so much.

Guizmus:

Thanks, I'll have a look ar this, and get back to you.

Thank you. Thanks very much.

Truth be told, I continued working on it and the bullet method came to me. Originally, I couldn't get it moving at all. Checking the reply, I wondered what you meant, because my original post was this:

My mistake? I was saving to my dropbox as I was working.

And thank you very much for the bullet speed tip.

Great.

Good day, people.

Something that may be apparently simple, but anyone got any idea on this?

I'm trying do something like this:

(pseudo-code)

touch the button;

object begins to move horizontally;

touch the button;

object stops moving;

What I'm tying to do does work with key down, mouse down or "is touching", but I want it to be:

touch to start moving and then touch to stop moving.

I tried doing this with 8-direction and platform

Any ideas? Thanks.

A sample capx is attached.

Thank you all again.

Thanks a million. It was the "conjoined" bit that I wasn't doing. I was adding separate events

And another thanks for the animation advice!

Thank you very much. What you suggested was one of the things I had been trying. It seemed to also require dragging the two events together so that they are one block.

Cheers.

Sorry all. Should have posted this here rather than in the general forum.

Anyone got the answer to this problem?

I'd be grateful, it's one that's made me uninstall and re-install Construct 2 a billion times:

The OR block.

Its supposed to be a right click on the margin. I can see this and I can toggle the tick next to "Make 'OR' block" but nothing else happens. The "OR" text does not appear.

I simply want the cow to move right if either the down or right arrows are pressed, or left if the left or up arrows are pressed.
