How do I use a certain touch option to do...

I am trying to create a version of the Lee Stemkoski breakout tutorial that uses touch controls. However what should be a fairly simple operation results in the paddle starting at the far left of the screen for some reason. The game is still playable but not functioning as well as I would like. Any Suggestions?

Maybe you have a capx or more detailled information? I don't really get what you want to do.

He is right.Attach a capx and post.

dear friend try this tutorial and see if it can help you

What I meant to say is that the paddle for some reason starts at the far left of the screen for some reason (did not do this before i made it a touch game), and also my win/loss conditions aren't working. Any help or suggestions appreciated. I can't attach the .capx because it is too large.

I am going to guess that you are using something like

every tick -- set position of paddle to touch.x, y position

?

if so then when you don't have a touch in place then this would position the sprite at zero (ie no touch x position), y position.

So if I am guessing right then you could add something like

is in touch

every tick -- set position of paddle to touch.x, y position

As I said - total guess without the capx.

You can save your capx to dropbox and then post a link to that.

Just to add in that you don't need Every tick there. Is in touch will register every tick anyway.

here is link to .capx in dropbox dropbox.com/s/osz60dko5ic6f ... 2real.capx

"invalid link"

This link should work. Apologies for the last one. dropbox.com/s/osz60dko5ic6f ... 2real.capx

dropbox.com/s/osz60dko5ic6f ... 2real.capx Sorry again now it should work. Didn't read that i can only place plain text.

still invalid

dropbox.com/s.osz/60dko5ic6f ... 2real.capx

This time it should work, if not then i do not know what to do unless you want an email of the .capx

any idea why all the links i am posting to dropbox are invalid?
