Questions & Answers

Hi all,

I want to make that my variable equals 1 only when my button clicked, and when it released it will be 0.
I’m using javascript.

Thanks in advance for help :slight_smile:

You can use GUI.RepeatButton for things like that.

GetKey sends 1 on all frames you keep pressing.

GetKeyDown sends 1 only on the frame you press, and 0 the rest of the time even if you hold down

GetKeyUp sends 1 when you release the button, and 0 any other time.

GetMouseButton and GetButton work the same way.

So I guess you are looking for

var anyVar: boolean;

function Start(){
   anyvar = false;
}

function Update(){
    if(Input.GetKeyDown("Jump")
        anyvar = true;
    else if(Input.GetKeyUp("Jump"))
        anyvar = false;
    }

Jump is the space bar by default, check Edit->Project Setting->Input to see what is what and change as you wish.

Or more simply:

var anyVar: boolean;

function Start(){
   anyvar = false;
}

function Update(){
    if(Input.GetKey("Jump")
        anyvar = true;
    else
        anyvar = false;
    }

you choose.
