Invert Walk Controls

[OfficialPogCat (POG_Cat)]

Hey developers! I am working on a small project game, and would like to invert the Walk controls.

Heres what I mean on the keyboard:

• When you Press W, You move backwards
• When you Press S, You move Forwards
• When you Press A, You move right
• When you Press D, You move left

Here are my issues:

1. Where do I even begin with making something like this, and how would mobile be supported?

2. The invert keys is meant to be a temporary effect, meaning I need to switch from normal walking to invert walking, to then back into normal walking. So how can I change from Invert and Normal walking seemlessly

---

Any help, resources, or guidence is much appreciated!

To be able to invert controls, we want to invert that translation. Luckily for us, the aforementioned controller object has a method called “moveFunction” that it calls after dealing with all the…

This well help you even with mobile as it literally reverses the movement direction.
