OK I've been beating my brains out on the keyboard for the last three hours because something really weird is going on.Basicly I've worked about to where you add the ghosts in the tut, but the part that's suppose to make movement more responsive so that you can change direction quickly just doesn't work.
I've evan cut and pasted it out of the .PDF file and it still doesn't everything else is fine abd works perfect except this one part. (Here's the section of the tut)
Making Player Movement More Responsive
But it’s a little sluggish – if we want to quickly reverse direction, we can’t – the
player will move a little further in the direction he is going before he will reverse
direction.
To make quick reversals of direction possible, we need to put some code outside of
the If Centre = 1 condition just to check for reversals of direction – so insert this code
immediately after the Endif :
`
` Allow player to do a quick about face
`
If PlayerRight = 1 And LeftKey()
_Reset_Player_Direction()
PlayerLeft = 1
Endif
If PlayerLeft = 1 And RightKey()
_Reset_Player_Direction()
PlayerRight = 1
Endif
If PlayerUp = 1 And DownKey()
_Reset_Player_Direction()
PlayerDown = 1
Endif
If PlayerDown = 1 And UpKey()
_Reset_Player_Direction()
PlayerUp = 1
Endif
Now if we run the program again, the player’s response times have improved quite considerably.
The problem is that the response time doesn't change at all, and this makes it near impossible to play the game because you slide so much that you can't go anywhere.
EDIT I've included my full program in the source box.
So if any one would help me I'd be super happy, thanks.
