Help with dashing!

[ZyroSH]

I have had to reuplod this 3 times because the 1st 2 didnt work so im gonna make it quick. I need help with dashing on a platformer. so when you click somewhere in the air you dash a short distance towards your mouse. Give me some pointers or ways of doing it!

Thanks

// Create Event:
Dash   = false;

// Step Event:

if(mouse_check_button_pressed(mb_left)){   
   if(Dash == false){
      Dash  = true;
      _x    = mouse_x;
      _y    = mouse_y;
   }
}

if(Dash == true){
   speed = 5
   if(point_distance(x, y, _x, _y) > speed){
      move_towards_point(_x, _y, speed);
   }else{
      speed = 0;
      Dash  = false;
   }
}
