How do I make a shoot power?

Hi people,

Is posible Construct2 make a strength bar/power shoot as Gradius videogame?? I'm doing in my spare time a shooter game and is fun for me but...this shoot I do not know how to do it...

For example I press/hold the shoot key a few seconds and when I stop pressing key the shoot is more powerful.

any ideas? or similar capx?

Thanks very much

I've made this quickly because I have to leave right now but I think it's what you are looking for.

Thank you for your time kossglobal!

This effect is great kossglobal, it s similar what I wanted to do,

Sorry, but Is it possible to just shoot until the bar reaches the limit ? Only when the red bar reaches the limit , if not so do not shoot any projectile.

Thanks again

I'm not at home but you Just need to verify if the shotpower is equal to the shotmaxpower value in the condition where you spawn the bullet

Edit: do not verify if Its equal, use greater Or equal otherwise Will never be true

Ok I understand,

Thank you a lot kossglobal
