I dont know what im doing wrong

Here's what im trying to do.

There are 3 rooms; A, B, and C.

Room A is the room with the switch.

The switch, if pressed while Variable=0, sets variable to 1

If pressed while Variable=1, it sets the variable to 0

If the variable=0 and you hit the arrow on screen, you go to room B.

If the variable=1 and you hit the arrow on screen, you go to room C.

I set it up perfectly and you only go to room B. Help?

Hi

The problem (as far as i understand) is that u set the variable to 1 if the switch is pressed.

Now in my experience u dont want to "set" the switch to 1.

Because construct2 recognises u pressing the switch even after it has set that variable.

The result is this:

Pressed switch --> set variable to 1 --> set variable to 0

So when u then hit the arrow on screen, u go to Room B.

To make switches using variable i always do the following.

I came up with this method after having the same problem long time ago.

Here is what i do all the time and it works.

Press switch --> Add 1 to variable

Variable = 0 (Do Action)

Variable = 1 (Do Action)

Variable is greater or = 2 (set variable to 0)

This event logic makes the switch cycle through the variable, and by reaching the end it starts at Zero again.

With this u can make as many variable actions as u need.

Press switch --> Add 1 to variable

Variable = 0 (Do Action)

Variable = 1 (Do Action)

Variable = 2 (Do Action)

Variable = 3 (Do Action)

Variable = 4 (Do Action)

Variable = 5 (Do Action)

Variable = 6 (Do Action)

Variable = 7 (Do Action)

Variable = 8 (Do Action)

Variable is greater or = 9 (set variable to 0)

U can also use these variable "amounts" in other events.

In your case it would look like this.

Press switch --> Add 1 to variable

Press Arrow & Variable = 0 (Room B)

Press Arrow & Variable = 1 (Room C)

Variable is greater or = 2 (set variable to 0)
