What if you put the movement and the dash inside true or false variables

#

This way you can control what are you executing

#

Note: I'm kinda new too, so if doesn't work Idk what to do

gusty inlet
#

Im so new I dont even really understand what you mean lol

brazen galleon
#

🤦‍♂️

gusty inlet
#

somthing kinda like this?

brazen galleon
#

Okay, it's too late, so i'm gonna sleep and tomorrow I will send you a more detailed struction

#

Okay?

gusty inlet
#

of course, no need to break your back over a random Godot noob lol

this code works

brazen galleon
#

I'm sorry

#

But I'm going in a trip today so I can't help you

#

I'm really sorry😥

#

But there may be something useful in the Godot documentation

#

If don't find nothing try there

brazen galleon
#

So forget it, if it works its fine

Yeah a boolean is the easiest way to handle these.

#

If you need a more complex system later look into state machines. If you end up with is_walking, is_running, is_jumping etc etc. it can become overwhelming.
But for a simple game booleans are fine!
