hello people! how are you? I have a question, am making a shooting game and i want to play a sound when a sprite is created, the thing is that when i choose

"sprite" -> on created | Play "soundname"

it works but at the start of the layout the sound play once how i can stop this?

This should actually be it's own new topic on the How Do I forum, but to answer your question, do a Sprite Destroy in On start of layout. Your default sprite on the layout will be triggering this. If this doesn't help, start your own topic for more help.

If you could add:

To the multiplayer section of this thread, i would really appreciate it.

Kyatric The "make a tank" link under "object moving", does not work now. Idk if you want to remove it or whatever.

—: thanks for the notice.

I'll modify the link to this current post.

To make a tank check out the template RTS (in the "templates" folder of the C2 install file "Template-RTS.capx" or directly in the list when you create a new project in C2) because it shows how to make a tank and have it moving thanks to containers and pathfinding behavior.

This is the best FAQ I've ever seen! Very convenient for beginners! I'm SO downloading all of these to my hard-drive! <img src="smileys/smiley32.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Man you know what, I really don't have words to express my happiness. It is like I found treasure in which I have thousands of examples and such things.

Thanks for such good FAQ and a this big database.

Thanks so much for putting this together (and keeping it updated!)

It's a fantastic help -- and I know I'll be checking back frequently to see how the list has grown.
