Object control [file posted]

1

here is a movie that i put together that has a lot of controls that i’m thinking about using. how do i add limits to them?

also … does anyone know how to change the color with a button press … or maybe apply a random color to the object?

thx :slight_smile:

Man you’re wasting space… :slight_smile:

on (press, keyPress "<Right>") {
	tellTarget ("") {
		with (blue) {
			_x += 10;
		}
	}
}

How about

on (press, keyPress "<Right>") {
	blue._x += 10;
}

And if you want to put a limit:

on (press, keyPress "<Right>") {
       if (_x<400) blue._x += 10;
}

pom :asian:

you’re a genius

thx for helping a newbie scripter out!

[update]
i tried inserting the code and it doesnt work. the ball still moves with the shorter code … so thats sweet but it doesnt stop at the bounds i’ve set

do i need to put an {else} in there?

on (press, keyPress "") {
       if (blue._x<400) blue._x += 10;
}
