  Basic exercise in using Instances and picking Instances.

  Notice that there is only 1 chest sprite, 1 coin sprite and 1 check sprite. Hence, there is only 1 event / game action, yet it works for all.

  This principle is the whole big idea behind the Construct 2 engine, and if you ask me, the beauty of it.

  On a first quick glance:

  The zero angle of an object is on the right. That is why in the first capx 'Rocket' is placed horizontal, facing right.

  In the second capx (yours) 'BOOSTER' (wich i think is 'rocket') is facing up.

  Meaning: the graphic representation = misaligned (90°) to the event system handling the angles.

  Or, account for that misaligned in the calculation of the angles.

  Or, rotate the the graphic content of the sprite, (in the Image and Animations editor -- https://www.scirra.com/manual/48/image- ... ons-editor ) so as a result the content is horizontal and facing right.

  Do you use the action 'Set speed' somewhere in the events ?

  Exactly the same problem as you had here:

  A trigger bumping on an 'else' while looking up if it is allowed to run its actions/subs.

  Only in these case randomly has an easy fix.

  I am sorry to say, but, i think, this can never have worked.

  Tried on a 2 x 2 tile. Works perfect. But. It drops in FPS with a big size tilemap, which is understandable.

  Your solution works fine. If done every tick. If there is only 1 shield and 1 boss.

  Other suggestions. (that work fine too)

  Use imagepoints on the boss.

  https://www.scirra.com/manual/63/image-points

  Position the shield on an imagepoint

  Then keep it there by ..

  or position it every tick to an imagepoint

  or use Pin behavior

  If the boats are in open sea (no colissions) i would do it basically this way.

  Dont need pathfinding.

  Should capture if target is to close, but i did not build that in, its basic.

  If you have to take collisions in account, then it gets hellish. Dont matter what behavior you use to move it.

  I try that later, when i got time.
