i'm trying to create an pause button in my game. at the moment when you click on the screen it will apply an impulse on the mover spriteNode. The problem is that it still applying the impulse when i click the pause button. How can i create an pause button without creating the impulse also. i've tried changing the if statements to an else if and then making the last impulse part the else part, but this wont work. touchBegan method: -(void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event { UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject]; CGPoint location = [touch locationInNode:self]; SKNode *node

I am developing a simple game in which a character fly when you tap/click the screen. keep tapping the character will fly (some what similar to flappy bird and jet pack). However the movement is not smooth at all, as of jet pack. Here is sample of my code. Varaible Initilization maxSpeedLimit = spriteHeight/10; speed = maxSpeedLimit/2; //half of the max speed touch event public void onTapOrClick(int action) { if (action == UP) { sprite.up= true; } else { sprite.up = false; } } Sprite update called from game loop public void update() { if (up) { y -= speed; //fly up } else { y += speed;// fly
