Re: AIR BALLON HELP

Here's a simple drag-able object:

Expand// CREATE
drag = false;
dx = 0;
dy = 0;

Expand// STEP
if (drag) {
    x = mouse_x + dx;
    y = mouse_y + dy;
}

Expand// MOUSE LEFT PRESSED
drag = true;
dx = x - mouse_x;
dy = y - mouse_y;

Expand// GLOBAL MOUSE LEFT RELEASED
drag = false;

Re: AIR BALLON HELP

i do understand that the four sections of that code go into the
Create, Step, Mouse Left Pressed, and Global Mouse Left Released
events

the whole script will not work

Code:
// CREATE
drag = false;
dx = 0;
dy = 0;

Code:
// STEP
if (drag) {
    x = mouse_x + dx;
    y = mouse_y + dy;
}

Code:
// MOUSE LEFT PRESSED
drag = true;
dx = x - mouse_x;
dy = y - mouse_y;

Code:
// GLOBAL MOUSE LEFT RELEASED
drag = false;
