character is jittery when moves?

Hi. My character is jittery when it moves left. When I moves right, it's fine. I have checked and re-checked my code and everything is right. Anyone know what could cause this?
Thanks.

The only thing I can think of is that the values of game.moveRight and game.moveLeft are changing when you think they should be constant. Does this happen with just a simple Move behavior set to 180 or 0? And make sure you don't have too many other programs open that could be causing a memory issue on your computer.

If possible, send me a private message with a link to download the zipped project file and I'll see if I can find the problem for you.

Okay, glad it works.

So... if your code is perfect, we will have no idea why this is happening. Any chance your code is not perfect? If you post a screenshot of your rules or a link to download your project file, I'll have a look for you.

Arrtribute game.moveRight is true > move
Attribute game.moveLeft is true > move > 180 direction.
It's relative to actor, move type: additive (for both)

Sorry, I couldn't do a screenshot at this time.
Thanks!

Sounds pretty simple. Have you tried creating a blank new project and adding a single actor with those same two rules to see if the problem exists only in the project you're working on or if it's Creator-wide?

allc1865

Yes. It seems to happen no matter which new document I create.

Does it happen with this demo I created (use left and right arrow keys to move the actor)?

When I move my character right, everything is ok, but when I move him left, it's jittery.
I couldn't open your file, sorry. It says it's just an image.

Don't worry about it. It's fixed. Thanks!

tatiang

@allc1865 can you share how you fixed it?

I actually quitted the program and when I opened my project back up, it wasn't very jittery anymore.
