General / Re: How do I move an object once every a constant time interval

You can create an sf::Clock and check the elapsed time every frame. And after it reaches the timer threshold you want, you move your player quad and reset the clock.

Example code:

sf::RectangleShape player(sf::Vector2f(100.f,100.f));
sf::Clock timer;

//in the game loop
if (timer.getElapsedTime().asMilliseconds() >= 500)
{
    player.move(0, 5); // replace 5 with anything you want
    timer.restart();
}
 

Cheers mate

General / How do I move an object once every a constant time interval

« on: April 02, 2018, 06:34:39 pm »

for example I have
sf::RectangleShape player(sf::Vector2f(100.f,100.f))

How do I make the player move once like every 500 milliseconds upwards for example?
