How do I spawn objects?

Hi,

I have two problems so far that I can't solve:

• I would like to know what to write at create object action, to spawn the objects at the borders of the screen, e.g. for size 1024, 576.

• When the objects are created I would like them to go to the position of the player and keep a specific distance.

Sorry for asking two questions in one post.

Thank You, in advance!

No problem for the two questions ! You should read the basics of C2 <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

1 - You can use the action "create object" and fill the "X" and "Y" parameters with the position wanted. You can access the window size with the system expression windowWidth and windowHeightv(https://www.scirra.com/manual/126/system-expressions).

2 - Add the pathfinding behavior or the MoveTo behavior to you object, then when you spawned it set the target to the player.

Would you like to create them on screen or offscreen?

You'd probably want to randomize it as well, right?

Giving them bullet behaviour and setting the angle towards the player would work for the second question?

Just have to set it so that when the distance between the player and the object is a specific amount you set the bullet speed to 0..

Yeah sorry for not clarifying that, I want them to spawn randomly at the borders of the screen(Inside the layout).

So, in the create event X,Y, what should I write?

Thanks
