Hello everyone.

I'm new to any kind of coding and such, and I've been browsing this forum for a while now.

So far, after a couple of days reading around, being on in my spare time, I stumbled upon a problem. I created something that looks kinda a 2d platform game, in its very early stage. What I have problem with now is to stop the player from moving, in any kind of direction.

I used this:

action move_left1()
{
while (!key_k) wait(1);
while (1)
{
if (key_k) Player2.y -= 1 * time_step;
else Player2.y = 0 * time_step;
wait (1);
}
}



well, thats about it for now.
Thanks for reading.

After some thought, I found a solution to this, but there are still some problems:P

I changed the code to this:
if (key_k) Player2.y -= 5 * time_step;
else Player2.y += 5 * time_step;

The problem this time is, if I press k once and then let it go, and then again pressing k I get more and more speed. Everytime I hit the key he adds more speed to him.

maybe this helps a bit, you just have to opt out one of the dimensions

Or Maybe try my Code (Player Movement with animation / Sounds)
