[MasterChafed]

i am sorry the oafan but all my beta positions are full. Sorry for not replying to your pms ninja9393. But not to worry, because I am probably going to be making this a public beta. I am loosing track of the tester I have. Just wait for a couple more releases.

Alright, now this is of utmost importance. If any1, ANY1 knows how to stop the animation when you stop pressing the button please tell me, i am up to my neck searching for functions and thought I almost had one. it was some thing like

if player.x == player.x + 4 then
player = Image.load("1.png")
end
if player.x == player.x then
player = Image.load("idle_r.png")
end

but all this did was make the image "idle_r.png" and it was really laggy. Sigh, this is frustrating, so if anyone can help me at all please, from the bottom of my heart, please help me!!

is your image a gif cause you shoul get a master chief sprite sheet and do his walk cycle frame by frame and make it loop till you let go of the d pad and then it returns to the stand sprite sorry if i dont make sense im new to lua

[MasterChafed]

I am using a strip in the form of a png for my animations. Basicly it sets a clipping box for the png and runs through the png as if it were a filmstrip. Basicly it has 5 chief sprites on one image. But thats not what I was talking about. After I set it to load the image, it continuously plays it and you can't stop it. So, i need some help there.
