  You can use Choose, or Random (converted to an Int).

  You can only test for the collision in the first place if you know what to test against, so the point is moot. If you want to abstract the object, you would use Families.

  The bees get stuck on the rocks, so you'll need to come up with a better way to deal with that.

  Ah, I did misunderstand what you were doing. Colludium is correct. If you destroy the object, you can't then get properties from it. Either do what AllanR suggested, or Colludium, or store the values prior to destroying.

  I've tried both ways and they both place in the same location. Maybe post both of you files to see if there is something else subtly going on. You can confirm the size easily by adding the Browser object and logging the width/height. The values are 15 & 30, before and after the destroy.

  That really depends on how you are implementing the movement. A bit of code might clear things up.

  Is it the same error? There are two locations. Just look at the code in the console (usually F12).

  You can actually patch this very simply. Go to the install directory, something like:

  C:\Program Files\Construct 2\exporters\html5 and edit the layout.js file.

  Do a search for:

  viewLeft, viewTop,

  change to:

  this.viewLeft, this.viewTop,

  There are two of them.

  First problem was you had default controls on for the enemy 8-direction, so it was just doing whatever the arrow keys said. Second, you need a way to marry the EnemyBox to the Enemy for picking, not just positioning.

  This is one way. 'Containers' are another:

  runningaway_BHT.capx

  (And keep your helper boxes visible, so you can see what's going on as you develop. If you turn them on in your current code, you'll see the two EnemyBoxes are actually pinned to only one Enemy.)

  Just drag the c2addon file onto an open C2 window and it automatically installs!
