If the variable jchar = 0, you play as character 1, if jchar = 1, you play as character 2. For some reason, i can't get it to work. I have an entity with this action: Code: ACTION character_control { IF (jchar == 0){ IF (key_q == 1){ jchar = 1; } } ELSE { IF (key_e == 1){ jchar = 0; } } } But when i press Q or E, nothing happens. What could be the problem? Last edited by Jonah; 08/04/08 22:52.

EDIT: Got it to do something, now it causes the game to crash. Here's the current code: Code: FUNCTION change_chars() { IF (jchar == 0) { jchar = 1; } ELSE { jchar = 0; } } ACTION character_control { on_q = change_chars(); } Last edited by Jonah; 08/04/08 22:40.
