Shooting Platform

Hi There Game makers

i'm trying to make a platform shooter game, like Contra o Megaman... but it happens, when i put the bullet object, with the same behavior and make the player to spawn it (shoot)... the bullet just shoot in one direction (to the right), and i don't know how to make it shoot in booth sides... anyone can help me? (Ps. Sorry for my bad english)

This is the Error

This is how I'd do it:

First, create a variable for the player, that will store what direction he is facing, and it will be set when you press the direction keys, like this:

On press Left:

set player.direct to 180

On press Right:

set player.direct to 0

Then, at the bullet spawn event:

On 'shot' press:

spawn bullet

bullet: set angle to player.direct

7Soul very nice , thank you very much !!!!

hi fidox , I really like the solid platforms in the pictures , how did you make them , can I use them or can you tell me how to make them ? thank you very much !!

carminielloz i think this is one of the construct sprite pack , also there is a tutorial that has these sprites so i think you can use it , also try to read some tutorials ^^

hi zsangerous good to see you here ? are you stalking me ? hahaha

btw u r right i need to read tutorials !

Sorry to bring back a dead post but I'm having a problem with this. It could be that I'm operating in Beta v99 of construct, but I want to confirm this.

Implemented exactly what was said, it just won't behave at all. dl.dropbox.com/u/938515/Test.capx

And this sample CapX from Kyatric doesn't behave either (http://www.scirra.com/forum/platform-game_topic46666.html)

Thoughts? I should switch back to a solid version?

I solved that problema a long time ago, thanks to the help i see here

How do you get that X infront of mirrord?

That just indicates the condition has been inverted. Right mouse on Condition and select Invert.
