Question

i was making a 2d platformer and i am very new to c#. i was trying to flip my sprite to the direction it was moving.but i came across a problem. it says the error is at if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") > 0.5f && facingRight = false) and else if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") < 0.5f && facingRight = true) i dont know what the hell to do. i am pretty sure that both of them are variables but the onsole says otherwise.here is that section of the code:

     if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") > 0.5f || Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") < -0.5f)
     {
         transform.Translate(new Vector3(Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") * playerSpeed * Time.deltaTime, 0f, 0f));
         if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") > 0.5f && facingRight = false)
         {
             Flip();
             facingRight = true;
         }
         else if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") < 0.5f && facingRight = true)
         {
             Flip();
             facingRight = false;
         }

     }
 }

Try t$$anonymous$$s

  if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") > 0.5f || Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") < -0.5f)
  {
      transform.Translate(new Vector3(Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") * playerSpeed * Time.deltaTime, 0f, 0f));
      if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") > 0.5f && facingRight == false)
      {
          Flip();
          facingRight = true;
      }
      else if (Input.GetAxisRaw("Horizontal") < 0.5f && facingRight == true)
      {
          Flip();
          facingRight = false;
      }
  }

When you are comparing two values, you need double equals (x == y) , when setting a variable, use only one (x = y)
