Hi everybody zombie again. I'm having some trouble with this movement code, i cannot get my sphere to turn left or right and the only thing i haven't tried yet is keystate. I was wondering if anyone could help me. Please, it would be a big help.

Ok first, the keystate will be more usefull than up or down key becose if you want your player move and turn at the same time, you need to make mouvement with keystat().

Ok your mouvement code sure don t work for turning left or right
that what your code mean,
if upkey = 1 then move foward
if downkey = 1 then move backyard
if leftkey = 1 then move backyard
if rightkey = 1 then move foward

what you what is if left or right key = 1 then rotate your object

like this

if leftkey() = 1 then yrotate object 1, wrapvalue(object angle y(1) +1)
if leftkey() = 1 then yrotate object 1, wrapvalue(object angle y(1) -1)

with that code, your object 1 will rotate on himself

P.S. if you use set camera to follow in the angle of the command, don t forget to put the object angley(1)

If you can, I can!

sorry for doubleposting, but I don't quite get the set camera angle. Could you post an example, i'm a big visual learner, you don't have to, i could figure it out eventually, but i'd appreciate it. Thank you for your help.

question 1: Yes you can, just change the object number

Question 2:


so code:
X# = object position X(1)
Y# = object position Y(1)
Z# = object position Z(1)
Aoy# = object angle y(1)

set camera to follow X#, Y#, Z#, Aoy#, distance, heigh, smooth, collision

so the camera point all the time a the back of object 1

If you can, I can!

Hmm,Thank you zeddex2.
So you can set an object's X,Y,Z,and Angle as a variable.Can you set an object's number as a variable?
