[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Arial]I’m trying to create a beat em up game and right now i got my character walking, jumping and dashing. I have 6 attack animation so far 3 for punches 3 for kicks. If you hit the a key it will punch and if you hit the s key it will kick. This is what i’m trying to achieve, if the player presses the attack button whether it be punch or kick, then the character will attack and if the player keeps pressing the same attack button it will continue with its attack sequence. So if the player mashes the a key it will throw punched and if the player mashes the s key it will throw series of kicks (Note: I do no want if the player holds down the key, has to be a key press and release).[/FONT][/COLOR]
[COLOR=#000000][FONT=Arial]Also i want it to make it go to the next attack animation once the current attack animation has completely finished instead of jumping to the next frame midway of it’s current attack animation. So while the character is attacking and the attack key is pressed the character will finish its current attack animation and as soon as it ends it moves on to the next attack animation frame otherwise it will stop. I’m not sure where to begin, should i create arrays or extend classes. This is what i have done so far it is the player class
Feel free to play around with it too
