Moving platforms

Greetings...

I am fully clueless as to how to make horizontal and vertically moving platforms.
Help plox?

They aren't simple, but are more than possible. I suggest having a variable in the create event of an object(moving platform) that keeps the speed of the platform, and a step event that looks like:

Code:


if place_meeting(x,y-1,oPlayer){oPlayer.x += spd}
if place_meeting(x+spd,y,oPlayer) or place_meeting(x+spd,y,oBlock){spd = -spd}


Tell me if that works or not.
