Simple(but good) Sliding Movement

*NOTE* originally designed for a Top Down Shooter, but should work in other games similar to that format.

So what this is is a simple(and I mean SIMPLE) movement code that uses the "Friction" function, the result is a cool sliding movement.

First create an object that will be the thing that moves.

Now put this in the Step Event:

Code:

friction = 0.5

Friction can be changed to suit needs of course

Now comes the simple part for all the directional movements just put this code in:

Code:

motion_set (direction,speed);

Obviously replacing the direction and speed with whatever you want.

And thats it!
