Changing Sprite as it moves

[TheBirdIsDead]

Hello, I am very new to gml and game making in general,
I was wondering how I could make my sprite (main character) who has an idle animation.
change to its movement animation as I press the button to move the object but returns to its idle animation as I unpress said button.

I thank you for your future help.

Check if your object is moving. If it is, set its sprite_index to the moving sprite. If it isn't, set it to the idle sprite. I'd recommend Shaun Spaulding's YouTube tutorials for learning more about GMS: https://www.youtube.com/user/999Greyfox
