I have a problem with my character... when he hits the border that is set up... he doesn't go through but he still walks... how can I set it so that he becomes idle unless he moves away from the wall or along it?

You should consider the new position of the Player and the old Player position. If they are the same, then the player is idle, then the animation will stop.




Try to change the code like this, maybe it works.

I'd do:


(=Part of your code)

Don't think too much

Thanks... that helps... the simple things are the best!!
