[Resolved] Holding a direction button?

[Roxas]

Hi there. I am doing an event system that needs a tiny bit of script, and I was wondering how you do it. In the common event, I have a condition branch, and I want to know, how do you script, if directionbutton held? Sorry if this isn't very clear, I don't really know how to word it. But basically I want it to be able to tell if a directional button is being held. Thanks guys, this will be a big help. Later, Roxas.

Input.press?(num)

Will tell you if the button is being currently pressed (Help file, people, help file!).

To check the down button, use:

Input.press?(Input::DOWN)

Yes! Thanks ccoa. I know it had something to do with input but I couldn't remember the rest. Thanks.

You can also use the Input.dir4 or Input.dir8

Input.dir4   -> 0 : No Direction, 2 : Down, 4 : Left, 6 : Right, 8 : Up
Input.dir8   -> As Above, : 1 : Down Left, 3 : Down Right, 7 : Up Left, 9 : Up Right
