Decimal movement deceleration

[King_Cool]

Hi
This is kinda hard to explain.
...

This is how the Player decelerates:

If 'MovementSpeedX_' > 0
-->
subtract 1 from 'MovementSpeedX_'
...

Lets say my Player 'MovementSpeedX_' = 0.4 ( moving to the right )
The result will be that 'MovementSpeedX_' = -0.6 ( moving to the left )

How can i alter my deceleration condition to make it so that the deceleration does not reverse the movement speed?

Instead of using the subtract from alterable value action, use set alterable value. Set it to:

Max(0, movementspeedx_("Player")-1)

This will set the speed to whichever is greater, the player after decelerating or 0. If you program deceleration in the opposite direction, use Min() for that one.

movementspeedx_ of player <> 0: Set movementspeedx_ of Player to movementspeedx_ - (movementspeedx_/Abs(movementspeedx_))

However if you're going to be dealing with non-integers, this won't work.
