It's good to think other ways of doing things.

Posted: Thu Oct 28, 2010 12:41 amSetting the yvelocity gives it a constant speed. If you just change the y, it will only move once. You can create your own variable to represent yvelocity, and add it to y every frame on a draw actor event, which does give you some advantages if you want to do more fancy things, but for normal situations, yvelocity is simpler.
