Hey guys,
You know if there's any way to create some sort of release key event? Cause I use sprites that has animations for both standing and running left and right and I want it to show the standing left or right sprite after it's moved respectively.
Also, in terms of sprite animations, when I tell the game to play a different segment of the sprite, it finishes playing the sprites it was told to play before it changes over to the different sprites. Is there any way to instantly change the sprite (ie. stopping the sprite animation mid-way and changing into a different animation)
Thanks heaps.

1: I made an input class that can handle releasing keys and much more (including double click):

2: Yes, it's possible. You should be able to specify what frames you want to play the sprite from/to.

3: Use dbSetSpriteFrame(SPRITE, FRAME);

Hey man,
Thanks heaps for your input classes! Can you explain to me how to use them please? (I'm new to all this, lol)
Also, I've tried dbSetSpriteFrame but since I'm holding down the right key for example when I'm moving right, it'll lock the sprite frame to what I told it to set to and won't animate unless I release the key. Any other ideas?
Thanks heaps so far man.

dbPlaySprite(iSPRITE, iSTARTFRAME, iENDFRAME, iDELAY)?

Some pseudo code for you:



The input class comes with an example program to use.

PS: Maybe dbLoopSprite can also be a solution instead of using dbPlaySprite.

Okay, I managed to incorporate the input class globally, however, I'm getting this error...

I do not know what I've done wrong... The funny thing is that the coding in utilities.h was written by the compiler itself so I have no idea why it's acting up on me now.
