Good day,
I have followed along some very good endless runner playmaker tutorials and I have managed to create something that can pass for a game. It is only for private use, but its my first and I am happy with it.
I thought I would add my own spin to it by having the player move in diagonal 45 degree lines instead of just straight left and right. I thought it would be relatively easy, but I have now spent the entire weekend trying to get it to work and am currently thinking about throwing out my entire computer.
What am I missing?
I figured that the first dash would only be 45 degrees since my player starts of by running forward in a straight line. When the player is ready, he taps the screen and the character either moves/dashes 45 degrees left or right.
The next turn would then have to be 90 degrees in the other direction if I want to achieve a kind of zig zaging effect, and 90 degrees after that and so on.
I know how to make the character move left and right in a straight line, but how would I go about making it move in a diagonal way left and right?
Please save my computer from an early death!
