Rt Stick controls arm R2 dash on sackbot, how do I do that?

Archive: 8 posts


I have a sackbot, I have a dash L/R set to L2/R2 respectively. Now I want to control the right arm with the right analog and shoot projectiles out from his hand and I'm kinda stuck on how to do it. I tried hooking the OR gate to l/r & u/d on the right analog and then the output of that OR gate into the input of R2 exactly as shown in comphermc's tutorial. When I do that it just dashes to the right whenever I move the right analog and does not move the right arm at all. is there a way to correct this?2011-03-20 05:07:00

I dont think you can do that. To be able to control the arm with only the right stick you still have to have the r2 button triggered by something. basically whenever you move the right stick it turns on the r2 button so you dont have to push it yourself.2011-03-20 05:10:00

Could you perhaps make it so that the 'arm movements' activate when you double press R/L 2? (or maybe you could have the dash assigned to a double press). Im sure it would be achievable with counters...so for example a counter that counts to two. Once its full it will turn off the dash logic and activate the normal arm movements (obviously youll need a timer to reset the double tap counter after a certain time so that you don't dash every time you press the button a second time).

Itll be a bit more technical than that but it should be possible...I think

That's a great idea dude! I think I'd put the dash on double I think that might actually feel more natural to put both of the dashes on double taps. Thanx man!

Edit: I did that and it works like a charm! Now to see if I can implement the shooting mechanic and the sword mechanic and I will be golden.

Well it should not dash to the right when you move the stick... are you sure when you connect it to R2 you are connecting it to the sackbot's control? You need to have 2 controlinators on the sackbot. One is receiving input, the other is overriding the sackbot. You connect the OR gate into the override R2 button, but you connect the receiving R2 button into your dash logic.2011-03-20 19:54:00

Gutz, using the same logic u are using for the first post, just use a XOR gate that is linked before the dash. so the dash cant work if there is an output on the right stick and R2

but that means u wont be able to dash and attack.. depends on what other logic ur using.

Obviously you are using a dcs. So add another dcs to the main bot chip and conneect right stick in receiver dcs to the new dcs R2 input. Make sure to set new dcs as normal...meaning not remote for transmitter or receiver. Simple and very effective2011-03-20 20:53:00

To be honest I am perfectly satisfied with the first solution BUT I just solved the whole problem, I didn't know you could differentiate the between left and right input on the LEFT stick but then I put a direction splitter in the dash logic and wired it to the LEFT stick. So now you dash when you double tap the Left stick left or right in the respective direction, if you do not double tap in .3 sec a timer resets the tap counter. BOOM!

Sonofabrave - I plan on having the right arm throw ninja stars where aimed and I plan on having a slash right (and left hopefully now that I know the splitter thing), and a dash slash left and right , so not being able to throw stars while dashing is not needed.
