i'm new to Defold and coding, i have been following a video tutorial from Gamefromscratch to animate sprites which is this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ha1Wq2FB7L0&t=5s buto could not make it move when i press the right arrow, it is just stands in idle position.
local currentAnimation = 0
function init(self)
msg.post(".", "acquire_input_focus")
end
function final(self)
-- Add finalization code here
-- Remove this function if not needed
end
function update(self, dt)
end
function on_message(self, message_id, message, sender)
-- Add message-handling code here
-- Remove this function if not needed
end
function on_input(self, action_id, action)
if aciton_id == hash("right") and action.pressed == true then
if self.currentAnimation == 1 then
msg.post("#sprite", "play_animation", {id = hash("runRight")})
self.currentAnimation = 0
else
msg.post("#sprite", "play_animation", {id = hash("idle")})
self.currentAnimation = 1
end
end
end
This is the code, as i said when i press the right arrow it does not move as the tutorial.
You misspelled the word 'action' on the first if statement at function on_input.
This script should work:
local currentAnimation = 0
function init(self)
msg.post(".", "acquire_input_focus")
end
function final(self)
-- Add finalization code here
-- Remove this function if not needed
end
function update(self, dt)
end
function on_message(self, message_id, message, sender)
-- Add message-handling code here
-- Remove this function if not needed
end
function on_input(self, action_id, action)
if action_id == hash("right") and action.pressed == true then
if self.currentAnimation == 1 then
msg.post("#sprite", "play_animation", {id = hash("runRight")})
self.currentAnimation = 0
else
msg.post("#sprite", "play_animation", {id = hash("idle")})
self.currentAnimation = 1
end
return true
end
end
