[noob question]Collision problem

[veko]

Hello, so in my platformer i have my character pushed back when shooting a machine gun
if key_right_shoot = true and !place_meeting(x+1,y,obj_wall) x -= 3;
if key_left_shoot = true and !place_meeting(x-1,y,obj_wall) x += 3;

With this player gets stuck in the wall for just a few pixels, ive tried experimenting and changing placemeeting but nothing seems to work. If you know how to solve this problem, please, help me ou!

I don't know if this is the problem, but shouldn't you be checking for collision in the same direction you're moving?

This

!place_meeting(x+1,y,obj_wall) x -= 3

Should be this

!place_meeting(x-3,y,obj_wall) x -= 3
