  I've been trying to wrap my head around doing this but I can't think of a good way to go about it.

  What I'm trying to do is replicate the damage effect from the old Zelda games. However I can't think of a way to do this in general and even if I do, I can't image how I'd make sure the player doesn't get jammed into a wall.

  I hate essentially asking "make this for me" but I really can't think of any solutions.

  That's quite the custom. From what land does he hail?

  Oh good idea. Searching works wonderfully. Especially since that thread is just so conclusive and all. I mean it tells me exactly what causes it! And was responded to at all! Thanks!

  I've been trying to save my latest project in scirra and it's giving me the "Error with loading: Expecting class (CLayer), but recieved (CObj)" error...

  What can I do to avoid this and what causes it?

  Alright then. I suppose I should use that method. I'm already setting separate animations for different directions. Oh well.

  Thank you for all your help though.

  Ah never mind. I got it to work. Though I have to ask, what exactly is the purpose of having those angles?

  Well I'm trying to mimic your example but I must be missing something crucial because I can't even get one direction to work.

  Thanks a lot!

  I wish I had known about the inverse function a long time ago.

  One question though, since I'm making my own controls would you happen to have any ideas as how to simulate 'player is moving'? I've been trying to do it for a while but nothing seems to work.

  As far as creating animations go, I know what I'm doing. But how would I make a character play a run animation when a key is held and stop the on release of the key?

  What would Object.X be though? Do I attach a second invisible sprite to the character or... what?

  Where would I get the old coordinate of an object then?

  The way I understand it is that it's the rate of change of a number.

  Thanks man.

  And yes a message box would probably be a good idea. I didn't even know the log tab was an error reporter until you mentioned that.
