I did some tests yesterday and my sprites moved differently if i set velocity to 1.3 or 1.5 or 1.7 but today i tried again and it seems it only uses the int part of the speed now (??) all sprites suddenly move at v=1. I cant think of anything i did differently?

anyone have an idea?

If you want to use the decimals put this # after the variable name. I got some wierd errors from the same sort of thing....

v=1
v#=1.01

GIve me more power!

Every stage of your program must use #. You could have missed one out somewhere. Probable during the actual sprite command. You might have to use 1.0 for 1, 0.0 for zero etc as well.

don't use v# = 1.01 make it 1.1. 1.01 will probably give you weird results try staying away from numbers like 1.001 or 0.003 ect ect try keeping it with 0.3 or 0.1 ect ect and 1.0 might be fast im not sure though so try it with like 0.2 or 0.3 something like that should give you ok speed results for your move commands

for the move sprite command just do

V# = 0.0

[code here for movement]

move sprite #,V#

[edit]

ok i did some test and doing 0.0100 for my Velocity# movement see code...



seemed to work good but when it was first starting it went really slow and looked slugish so i think using 0.1 or something would still work better...

The search continues.
