Changing variable when player is moving
Hey guys! I am trying to get a variable to become true whenever they move. I did this by simply checking if the player is pressing the arrow keys. For some reason, the variable doesn't become true when going horizontal. Anybody know why?
if(isCreeping == false && Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") > 0)
{
MakesSteps = true;
}
else
{
MakesSteps = false;
}
if(isCreeping == false && Input.GetAxis("Vertical") > 0)
{
MakesSteps = true;
}
else
{
MakesSteps = false;
}
if(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal") != 0 || Input.GetAxis("Vertical") != 0)
{
CheckGround();
}
Kinda worked it out later :P
Use Absolute value of the Horizontal input.
Mathf.Abs(Input.GetAxis("Horizontal")) > 0
The input can be positive for one direction, and negative for another (left/right). Also, I would remove the Vertical one, because you probably don't want to make footsteps while jumping or falling.
lol ! :D
Well, when you are pressing a forward button, makesSteps is true, but the next moment it becomes false as soon as the function reads the else statement, where the same variable becomes equal to false (lower, in the vertical statement)
To fix the problem, instead of else put else if( ! Input.GetAxis("horizontal or vertical")){ makes steps = false;}
