I wanna use Loops, Variables, Procedures, Objects, and if necessary, logic puzzles, to slide an animation along the X or Y axis at a smooth, visible pace as long as I hold down a key.

Maybe I’d use a Variables to set the initial position of my Character’s parent object at -0.3 at the Y-axis, using Set Object. Then I’d set a Variables name to the Parent object, to get the latter’s initial axis position.

For Procedures, I can use loop “repeat while – do”. Problem is, how do I keep adding 0.08 increments to the Y-axis for as long as the key is held down?

my 2nd attempt to do a procedure:

If necessary? Without logic puzzles you will do nothing.

Puzzles and JS. Fast and expensive.

If you don’t see the meaning in something it primarily means that you just don’t see it but not the absence of meaning at all.

Thanks for your answer, but for some reason, my character isn’t moving…

You’ve made 8 mistakes on the left.

Thanks. God damn, it should of been made clear that uppercase letter keys are not recognized by the puzzles as key input.

Also, I wanna make my character turn around 180 (e.g., right to left, or vice versa) after pressing left or right keys twice in a row. How do I use logic for this, given that puzzle logic “and” does not accept number operations:

The problem was not in the upper case recognition. WASD – with Shift pressed.

I see, makes sense.

Also, besides this, how do I require two simultaneous key inputs to produce a different function (e.g., key S + 4 to shoot diagonally)?

Also, did you use physics puzzles here? If you did, can you please show me?

I didn’t use physics puzzles. Every puzzle used in that demo is shown on the screenhot.

I see. Then how did you prevent the cube from falling through the floor, or going through the walls?

Objects are not trying to fall down without physics.

There are no walls in that demo. Only one cube with the “Limit location” constraint applied in Blender and one plane.

Better still if the new key event puzzles do not mess up the original one

I don’t mean to rush you, but I hope you can address these two other questions of mine when you have the time, too.

That’s your quest. Think. Try. I showed you how to use keys for moving. All the rest is possible but on the paid basis.

Yes, I did try, as per these screenshots:

That was a bad try. It’s impossible to multiply a boolean value (true or false) by 2.

What are the double click or double key hit? Just two single clicks or hits made within a short period of time (≈0.2s or 200ms).
