Is there a way to do this?

Hi!

I was wondering if there's a way to control the movement of an object via an image point. As a second project, I'm working on a small cinematic platformer prototype and the only way to do this was moving the image point manually on each frame since the movement is animation driven.

Ill post a capx file if required once I'm at home.

Thanks in advance!

You mean like "Super Hot"?

You can manipulate the individual timescale of an object via system events.

And change that timescale using specific conditions that will trigger the different scale values. It's possible.

Maybe this should have gone into the "How do I..." section?

Yes, Jeff Skyrunner I agree, but its just that I haven't found a method to move the image point (lets say the origin point) although for now I found a way to workaround. I don't know if this would be an interesting feature to be implemented in future releases.

Thanks!

onur (super hot has very interesting gameplay!)

I don't think OP asked about time manipulation.

—, you ask about if there is a way to change the image point on separate frames of a sprite at run time with events and actions? I don't believe there is.

I am interested in seeing your example capx to understand how could this prove to be useful as a gameplay element though.
