Problem with accelerometer

patapple

Hi,

I'm creating a simple game with the accelerometer but i have a big problem. When the level begin, the main character go automatically to a direction. I tried to put it on a table and it was the same result. There is a way to calibrate the accelerometer as soon as the level begin?
here is short video to show you what I mean:

I posted instructions on how to do it awhile ago

Thanks! I created the calibrate attribute but i have a little question: on my player actor i have the rule.
-when "accelerometer.X" is > -0.1 --> accelerate ...
but now the rule should be
-when "accelerometer.X" is > -0.1+calibrate.X --> accelerate

Right??? )

No
You replace the .1 with the calibrate value

I don't have the template anymore, it was from 2009
