With the script below, I succeeded with a two-way animation cycle. Left and Right animations work, but I am having a hard time calculating a logic to have four-way animation cycle to work.
extends KinematicBody2D
export (int) var speed = 200
var target = Vector2()
var velocity = Vector2()
func _input(event):
if event.is_action_pressed('click'):
target = get_global_mouse_position()
func _physics_process(delta):
velocity = (target - position).normalized() * speed
# run animation cycles
# these won't work
if position.y > target.y:
$AnimationPlayer.play('walk_down')
if position.y < target.y:
$AnimationPlayer.play('walk_up')
# these will run fine
if position.x < target.x:
$AnimationPlayer.play('walk_right')
if position.x > target.x:
$AnimationPlayer.play('walk_left')
if velocity == Vector2(0,0):
$AnimationPlayer.play('idle')
if (target - position).length() > 5:
move_and_slide(velocity)
man, i’m just a beginning, but u helped me and i think i can help u too.
thats not perfect, but it worked for me:
func _physics_process(_delta):
if Input.is_action_pressed("click"):
target = get_global_mouse_position()
velocity = (target-position).normalized()*speed
#rotation = velocity.angle()
if (target - position).length() > 2:
velocity = move_and_slide(velocity)
if position.y > target.y:
if (position.x-target.x)>(position.y-target.y):
$sprite_move.play("mov_left")
else:
$sprite_move.play("mov_up")
if position.y < target.y:
if (position.x-target.x)<(position.y-target.y):
$sprite_move.play("mov_right")
else:
$sprite_move.play("mov_down")
else:
$sprite_move.stop()
check this and let me know
got even better:
if (target - position).length() > 2:
velocity = move_and_slide(velocity)
if abs(position.x-target.x)<abs(position.y-target.y):
if position.y < target.y:
$sprite_move.play("mov_down")
else:
$sprite_move.play("mov_up")
if abs(position.x-target.x)>abs(position.y-target.y):
if position.x < target.x:
$sprite_move.play("mov_right")
else:
$sprite_move.play("mov_left")
else:
$sprite_move.stop()
i understod the script needed a order of priority to check, if more of one answers get a true valor, the moviment fail, because the engine cant choose wat true value to use. so i made the script chek the bigger distance between the position and target, if in the X or in the y. so that worked fine. check in your project.
