how to re assgin a variable

Question

So i assigned a variable,

var movedir = Vector2(0,0)

then when i did this

movedir.x = -int(left) + int(right)
movedir.y = -int(up down) + int()

i get this error:
Unexpected token: Identifier: movedir
(by the way i had assigned left, right, up and down)

Answer 1

You probably tried to do this outside a function. Show the rest of your script.

var movespeed = 300 

var movedir = Vector2(0,0)

func controls_loop():
    var left = Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_left")
    var right = Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_right")
    var up = Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_up")
    var down = Input.is_action_just_pressed("ui_down")


movedir.x = -int(left) + int(right)
movedir.y = -int(up) + int(down)

i didnt continue because of this error

Those last two lines must be indented so that they're part of the controls_loop() function.
