Here’s another big problem from the book 2D Game Building for Teens. Yes, the code examples are in rotten shape but the book as a whole is a good intro to Torque Game Builder — just make sure you keep checking back here for the fixes. =;)

On pages 163 and 169 the book shows the code for player.cs — and besides the problem shown in Errata #1 on this site, there is a huge chunk of the code shown that shouldn’t be there.

Basically, these functions…

BattyPlayerUp()
BattyPlayerDown()
BattyPlayerLeft()
BattyPlayerRight()

…are duplicated.

The first set shouldn’t be there — just rip those four functions right out and you should be good to go.
