  There have been variations of pseudo-3D over the years. Here's one:

  Personally, I'd use the LiteTween plugin to do all the work for me.

  Yes, that is essentially a state-machine. You have one timer, but different states within, where you perform different actions based on the state. You may even need sub-states, as your original example had three sub-timer states for the Shoot state.

  The default tilemap is 32x32, which you can see in the Properties panel, typically on the left. Sounds like you need to set your numbers there.

  Google is blocking this download site, and the file that came down is an EXE, which is suspicious. I suggest uploading somewhere else (Dropbox).

  I avoid Wait for anything but the simplest things. Timers give you 100% control over your timing.

  Ugg. My first instinct when I saw your code was to blame Wait, but as is, it does work, except of course if you destroy the Monster that is then later still referred to, as you painfully found out. So switch to using a Timer on Monster instead. Then if the Monster is later destroyed, the timer will be cancelled automatically. Sorry I didn't speak up sooner.

  Yes, that seems likely.

  It's hard to know exactly what you want here, but you don't really need "for each Object A, Object A Boo1 = 1" as only the triggered A objects are picked in the trigger anyway, So just picking B by VarA should work, or at worst, you need a For each A, then pick B by A.

  Object A on trigger

  -- for each Object A, Pick Object B by Object A. Variable

  OR if you are adding to the list of "A"s by setting the Bool, then you need a Pick All A to get all of them before the For each that you have. Again, hard to know what you really want from the pseudo-code.

  Every 2 seconds won't work any better, but it's harder to see the difference, since it's relatively quick, and is only off that first cycle.

  Every X seconds is based on the game start time, not the layout start, so any restart won't work the way you want. Use a Timer instead for consistent results.

  A common method is to put your menu events in a Group, then enable/disable the group to turn the events on and off as needed.

  The problem is, after the wait, loopindex will be zero again, since it's out of context. You could use the Timer behaviour to do this instead.
