On my most recent game, the character seems to glitch through the walls/move without command until not touching the color black if you are pressing one key, and then switch to another. I don't want my character to leave the area. My game is 2D (top view) and a Prison Break game. Hope you can help! Thanks, LegoCreep.

I kind of already have that in my script, and it isn't a side view 2D game, it's a top view. I would check it out so you can see for yourself. Thanks for the help though!

Interesting script setup. I say that you probably forgot to have it realize that even when the character is going backwards, it still has to get put back to mapX or mapY

Hmm? I don't understand what you mean.

Since the character isn't moving at all (at least it's sprite) and only the map is ACTUALLY moving you are confusing me.

What I mean is that I don't think you programmed it to move the character back even when walking backwards into the wall. If not that, then what also could have been the problem is that instead of moving to where there is no wall, it continues to run a script telling it to go into the wall.

How should I make that script then?

I can't figure out how to make the script.

Idk. Try tweaking each of your scripts and you should be able to find what's wrong.

It seems that the problem occurs when you are in a corner, and touch black on two different sides. Assume you are in a bottom left corner, and want to move left. Your code says:

Since you are touching black, you move 1 step right; but since you are still touching black, you keep moving more and more steps, regardless whether there's another wall on your right.

What I suggest is that the color you use for the horizontal walls should be slightly different from the one that you usee for vertical ones.

Agree

Oh yeah! Never though of that! Thanks!
