This dosen't make any sense......

Hello. In my game my character has an ability to rush forward at the push of a button. This is done by having a command that lets him go to another movement (a bouncing ball movement with a speed of 106 and a deceleration of 77) Now it works perfectly fine (at least it should) until after his animation is done for the move he should return back to his neutral state and go back to his first movement the platform movement. BUT whenever he tries to jump again he doesn't and he just has his falling animation playing for as long as you hold the jump button. This is extremely odd as I have done this sort of movement switching before with no problem. As a matter of fact in this same frame when hit by a certain hazard the player is forced back and this is done by the main character switching movements also but when done with his hurt animation and returning to his neutral state and he goes back to platform movement and is able to jump and move no problem. Another thing also dealing with switching movements is some enemies in my game have a platform movement also but are assaigned the 4th players control which is to say they are unccontollable because i configured the 4th player to not be able to be controlled. I usually did this to make enemies fall to platforms and the ground just as the player would. Normally this would work and I used it like that up to this point but in the same frame where I am having problems with the player, there is an enemy with the 4th player platform movement but instead of flling to the ground like it should it just hangs in the air. The funny thing is I just used that method for a boss earlier than that point in the game where I am experiencing problems and i looked back at it and it was working perfectly fine. Please does anyone have any thought on what could be happening or (more importantly) how I can fix it? This all seems so very strannge for it to not work suddenly at this point when it works perfectly fine in all earlier points in the game.

It sounds like you have events setting the movement back to normal over and over and over again, non-stop. Adding "Only one action on event loop" from the Special Object under Limit Conditions should fix it.

No it still doesn't work. I don't think that is the problem because it works fine in all other frames except this one even with me not having to have to put Only one action on loop command in.

Hello has anyone shed any light on this mystery?

Can no one help me? Nobody has any idea what might be going on?

If you provide an example file of your mfa, someone might be able to help you. Based on what you have said, it is a bit hard to decipher your bug without seeing your code.

How do I make a example file?

Upload your application. If you don't have a hosting service, you can upload files here

Also, are you using the built in platform movement option? That thing has all sort of troubles. You should use the Platform movement object (extension). Look at the example file (in your "Examples" folder), it's real easy to use.

What do you mean "upload your application"? How!? And how do I upload into the file archive?

The game you are working on; when you save it, it is stored someplace on your computer. Find out where it's stored.

Once you do, upload the file to the "file archive". You do so by adding a new thread. Now right under where you type the content of your post you have "post options". Press on file manager and find your file.

Thanks, doing that now (BTW the part I'm uploading is a VERY small snippet of the entire game. Also if you can tell me whats goin on and I can fix it, I'll probably have to promptly take it down for personal reasons.)

After I find my file I don;t know what to do afterwards.

1. Click here

2. Press "file manager"

3. In file manager, press "browse"

4. Find you file. Select it.

5. On the right side of the "browse" button, select "Add file"

6. Press "done adding files"

7. Submit post.

My file is bigger than 1 MB unfortunately

Any help as to how I can let you see it with it being over 1 MB and all?

You could upload it to the MFA Repository

Hmm it still doesn't work. It keeps sayong failed to upload file. The file is only 3,220 Kilobytes BTW.

Any help??!! This is a really game breaking kind of glitch that I can't even continue development until it's fixed!

So you tried the MFA Repository? not sure what you could be doing wrong...You are uploading the mfa.file right?

You could also try Boxnet
(I think one of the best file sharing )

I don't know if that's entirely safe.....

What do you mean?

I mean I don't feel entirely comfortable dending my file there.

If you've got issues charing your project file, you should try to recreate the bug you are experiencing.

Isolate it. Make a new file where you add as little as possible of the content you believe to be corrupting your project. Is it still buggy- is it still behaving like your main project file? Upload it then.

That way it will be easier to help you as well, as we don't have to dig through a bunch of other code that may not have anything to do with the bug.

There it's in the file archive now.

You'll need to give me a link or topic name, because I don't see any new threads in the file archive.

fixed

Thanks. The other issue is still at hand though.
