Hello!
I'm pretty new to Playmaker.
I'm having an issue transitioning between states.
My setup is pretty simple:

If you press D, the state changes to Walking_Right
If you press A, the state changes to Walking_Left
However you can't activate Walking_Left if it is below Walking_Right in the "State" menu. It won't even light up green in the State menu. If I swap which state comes first, then the other one won't work.

What am I doing wrong here?
I want the state to recognize ANY key input, then switch states based on what key was pressed.
edit: As the hint suggests:
"Action Sequences executes each action in turn. When one action finishes the next action starts."
How do I get it to check for any action sequence?
edit2: SOLVED!
Press the little gear icon on the top right of the state window and DE-SELECT "Action Sequence", this makes it recognize any of the states in the list at any time.

You can use Get Key action which results in a bool (true/false if pressed/not pressed). You can then bool test.
You could also add a Get Key Down on the Walking_Right state and listed for the A key to be pressed and send it directly to Walking_left.

I'm not sure if I'm following you correctly, but;
You can use Get Key action which results in a bool (true/false if pressed/not pressed). You can then bool test.
This is what I'm already doing -- you can see this in the second image from the OP.
If D is pressed down, then it changes states to Walking_Right.
If A is pressed down, then it changes states to Walking_Left.
However the state will only recognize whichever key check is placed first. Almost like it's waiting for D to be pressed before it'll even check for A. I want it to fire in event any key is pressed.
You could also add a Get Key Down on the Walking_Right state and listed for the A key to be pressed and send it directly to Walking_left.
Would this not mean that the player would have to press D before being allowed to press A? I want the player to be able to press any key from the idle state, and have it move in the direction correlated to that key.
