Hi all.
I am setting up, or rather trying to set up key "P" to display sprite
code is simple
If GetScancode == 25 then
SetSpritePosition(left_hand, 10,50)

But it is not working.
I have same for main_map using "M" and it works fine.
Whats wrong?

Is it a BUG or another BUG.
Don't understand why P doesnt work.

Any help would be appreciated.

I've tried this code and it works; notice your missing () in "GetScancode" statement, it should be "GetScancode()"

+ Code Snippet

function hit_p_init(e)
end

function hit_p_main(e)
	PlayerDist = GetPlayerDistance(e)
if PlayerDist < 500 and GetScancode() == 25 then Prompt("You've pressed P key") end 
	
end

Small tipp: Vars should never start with Set or Get. this are most of the time functions and need () at the end.
So it should be

+ Code Snippet

If GetScancode() == 25 then 
SetSpritePosition(left_hand, 10,50)
end

My dream is to develope games, which makes fun when I create it and fun when other people play it.

I can get the "P" scan code
but it will not display the sprite.
The "M" code 50, works perfect
but the "P" doesnt.

Code below
[_code]
if GetScancode() == 50 then -- "M"
SetSpritePosition(main_mapspr, 40,60)
if GetScancode() == 25 then
SetSpritePosition(left_handspr, 10,50) --"P"
[_/code]

Sorted.

Simple mistake.

Had the two If without end untill the end of script.
So it was reading the first If then it saw the second IF as part of the same.
So it did not excecute the second If. As no END was after the first IF.

Works perfectly now. Cool
Thanks for your guys input. It helped me to scan through my code and spot the error.
