I’m trying to make it so that after you get hit you get a hit immunity for a few seconds. To do that I’m changing the sprite image and making it detect it which type of sprite image it is to either make the player take damage or not. I tried to make something how I thought it would work but it doesn’t work. Anyone know anything?
