wow thank you so much, it really means a lot to actually get to talk to the developer. I'm surprised that you responded also im surprised more ppl don't already know about this. I love watching apps and ideas grow from the ground up you have an amazing product its complicated because in new, but still very user friendly. I'm telling everyone I know about this so i can have bragging rights. I absolutely will try this.
sorry to bother you Gamemaker, I tried to do what you said but very difficult, I'm very very new to this. I actually found out that it's not that the punching animation didn't work it's that I have to many animations for the same direction competing for priority. I have a walking, punching, and idol animations for when the object moves in a specific direction, however they overlap, and I don't know how to prioritize the animations.
