How can i make so you can't spam a button?

Hi

Playing around in MmF.

When my character jumps does she make a sound and a animation.

I got the standard
"""" Upon Pressing "Shift" - Play sample jump.wav / Animaton changed to jump """"

I just want this to work ONCE per jump so i can't for example press shift again while she is jumping.

Possible?

Add a "Only once while event loops" to your event located in the Special --> Limit Conditions menu.

Give your character a "Flag" which will be ON when he is in the air, OFF when he is on the ground. This way you can only "jump" when you are on the ground. Your code should look like this:


Upon Pressing Shift
&
Character Flag 1 is OFF
DO
play jump animation
set Flag 1 ON


When Character Collides with Backdrop
DO
set Flag 1 OFF

Also, you can go into your application settings and disable multiple samples.

when multiplay samples are disabled, the newer one will cut off the older one, so each time they press shift it would restart the sound

@ Pixelthief

Your Flag Idea worked just fine \o/

Character jumps and make the sound. If i press shift again will the sound not play again until she can jump again.

Thanks
