Hello Filos!

I saw your code and change the following lines in the "player -> Collision (any side of muro)" code window:

Code: Select all

x = xprevious;
y = yprevious;

In this case the player can't go through the wall.
I think, this is the simpliest solution, but there are more ways, e.g. check the collided actors before move the player and put further the player if there is not collision with certain actors.

The animations don't work properly because you are always restarting the animation while a key is being pressed.

Your code for the press down a key is:

Code: Select all

x = x -5;
ChangeAnimation("player", "charLeft", BACKWARD);


This causes the animation "charLeft" to restart all the time when the a key is pressed down.
You should use animindex (a read-only value) to check if the right animation is already playing.
The first animation in the list of animations for the actor has index 0. In your case this is the charLeft.

Change your code to this for the a key down:

Code: Select all

x = x -5;
if(animindex != 0)
ChangeAnimation("player", "charLeft", BACKWARD);

Not at all, Filos!

I thought that this engine was abandoned

Yes, maybe the developing of Game-Editor stopped, but there is a great tool. And you can continue its developing, if download the source code.
However maybe some functions are unfinished(?) yet - or only I don't understand its logic correctly. For example, I would like check the actors in a certain position before moving away the player actor:

Code: Select all

strcpy(collobj,getactor(x,y+height+4)->name);

but I can't evaluate the result, because I don't know how can be? If I check as a string, the player always go through the walls. If somebody could explain me functioning of getactor(), I would happy...

development hasn't stopped, it's just very slow
