Aligned objects

Hello

Can anyone show me how to set an event that does the following:

If Object X is facing(or aligned to)Object Y then perform action Z.

It doesn't have to work with tolerance.

Or direct me to a thread where this is discussed.

It depends on what you mean by aligned.

Also Object.X is its horizontal coordinate, whereas Object.Y is its vertical coordinate.

What exactly do you want to achieve ?

It's like in the demo and tutorial game Construct 2 delivers, Ghost shooter.

The player is facing the mouse, is looking at the mouse.

Or when you use the "set angle towards position" action.

What I want is an event that detects when this happens without using "set angle".

Like when you use "rotate clockwise"r "rotate towards" on an object,and another object is moving around it, I want an event that performs an action when the one rotating gets to face the moving one, just like the player in ghost shooter is facing mouse.x and mouse.y.

What I meant by Object x is a random object, an object that i choose, not object.x, sorry for the confusion.

Thanks

saludos :D

I'm still unsure of what you want to do but does this helps ?

Ou yeah it helped already !

This is what I wanted :D

Where can i get a list of all the functions end expressions that you can use in Construct 2, like distance, angle, etc ?

Thanks !

In the expressions window (available when setting the value for a variable for example) when you double click on system.

Thanks !

Great examples guys!

Kyatric, could you show a screenshot or something to show which "set variable value" dialog you mean?

I keep getting 404s for every "help" button i click in construct 2...

You click add action, then any sprite or object, and choose a parameter.

Then you get that window, with low opacity, and when you click system, you get all the variables of system.

This look like a similar thread, but see anything in the responses that helps.

I am looking for a isFacing condition or event, where I can do something like Player isFacing Enemy Enemy subtract 1 from Hitpoints.

I am sure there must be an example of this somewhere but so far cannot find. Of course it would be totally useful as a built in event.

Hero Within 45 degrees of angle(Hero.X, Hero.Y, Monster.X, Monster.Y): Subtract 1 from Hero.Hitpoints. <-- My answer, still would be nice to have a built in.
