Player Start/Stop Moving

These events are useful for detecting a player's movement state, especially for games that require players to be still or constantly on the move.

Player Start Moving

Triggers once when a player moves from one block coordinate to a new one. It will not trigger again until they have stopped and started moving again.

• Action Values: Player
• Use Cases:
  • Playing a footstep sound.
  • Making a "Red Light, Green Light" game where moving at the wrong time is penalized.
  • Revealing a hidden enemy when a player moves.

Player Stop Moving

Triggers when a player has been stationary on the same block for a short duration (about a quarter of a second).

• Action Values: Player
• Use Cases:
  • Making a player invisible after they've been still for a few seconds (like a chameleon ability).
  • Starting health regeneration only after a player has stopped moving and is "in cover".
  • Punishing players for standing still too long in a fast-paced game.
