So on my boss level the boss is able to push you around. Everything seems to be working fine except for one small detail. There are some floating platforms (Obj_Wall1) that the boss sometimes can push you into. I thought that if I used collision_rectangle and defined the coordinates within the players object I could make the players object go up or down. For some reason though it is not working. Here is the code:

if collision_rectangle(bbox_left+1,bbox_bottom-1,bbox_right-1,bbox_top+1,Obj_Wall1,true,true) || collision_rectangle(bbox_left+1,bbox_bottom-1,bbox_right-1,bbox_top+1,Obj_Wall,true,true)
{
  y=y-1
}

Any help is appreciated. If you think the problem is outside of that code then tell where you think the problem lies and I can post or change that code. Thanks!


Note: I am using Pro



Edit1:

Chances are this is because the object is getting pushed to xprevious and yprevious after this event. Try putting this in the endstep.

Edit: Hrm.. then again if you were in xprevious/yprevious this wouldn't occur. Darned moving solids again
Btw, what is actually happening with this code?

This is the code for when the player collides with the boss

if place_meeting(x+1,y,Obj_Cloudmanbig) then hspeed=0
if place_meeting(x-1,y,Obj_Cloudmanbig) then hspeed=0
if place_meeting(x,y+1,Obj_Cloudmanbig) then vspeed=0
if place_meeting(x,y-1,Obj_Cloudmanbig) then vspeed=0

direction=other.direction
hspeed=other.hspeed

if bbox_bottom<428 && (place_meeting(x+1,y,Obj_Cloudmanbig) || place_meeting(x-1,y,Obj_Cloudmanbig)) && !place_meeting(x,y+1,Obj_Wall1)
{ 
y+=3
}

Other than that the boss does not affect the players speed or direction in any way. (As far as I can remember)

Edit2:
I just looked at my test code (I have a section for code that may or may not work in my step event) and realized I had this in there.

if place_meeting(bbox_left-1,y,Obj_Cloudmanbig)
{
 hspeed=other.hspeed
}
if place_meeting(bbox_right+1,y,Obj_Cloudmanbig)
{
hspeed=other.hspeed
}
if collision_line(x,y,x,bbox_bottom+1,Obj_Cloudmanbig,true,true)
{
 var obj;
 obj=collision_line(x,y,x,bbox_bottom+1,Obj_Cloudmanbig,true,true)
x += obj.hspeed
}

The second part is for when you are standing on his head. (Although due to the way everything works it may affect you while you are on his side)

I am still having this problem.

EDIT: I solved the problem by adding it to the end step as previously mentioned... This is no longer a problem.
