  It would be easier to use a single font that supports all languages. Google Fonts have a large selection.

  If you need a spritefont, you can make it yourself with these tools:

  construct.net/en/forum/game-development/tools-and-resources-27/sprite-font-generator-v3-64038

  construct.net/en/forum/game-development/tools-and-resources-27/spritefont-generator-168408

  It is also possible to use different fonts for different languages, but this will require more work. I have a paid template that has this feature:

  construct.net/en/game-assets/game-templates/multi-language-support-c3-2407

  If you want sliding, use 8direction behavior. You can move the sprite by setting vectors:

  Set vector X to max_speed*cos(angle(self.x, self.y, Mouse.x, Mouse.y))
  Set vector Y to max_speed*sin(angle(self.x, self.y, Mouse.x, Mouse.y))
  

  To detect when the character is behind a wall - use a separate invisible non-solid wall sprite with a larger collision mask. But I think having a semi-transparent copy of the character displayed on top of everything is a much better solution.

  I can't download your project, it says "Access denied".

  If you want the character to walk around obstacles, you'll need to use the Pathfinding behavior — check out the official examples.

  A simple way to make the character sprite visible behind walls and trees is to make a copy of it (a clone object). Set its opacity to, say, 50%, attach it to the real character sprite and place it on a layer above.

  Does it happen in all browser? Can you share your project file, or a demo project with the same issue?

  but what if when want to create 3rd line continues

  Then it won't be L-shaped! You should've explained your task better. For multiple lines the solution would be different. If you just want to connect dots, then simply create a new line from dot to dot as the mouse moves.

  There's probably an easier and more efficient way, but here's my attempt:

  I've read your post several times, but I still have no idea what you're asking.

  If you want to disable the Drag & Drop behavior for specific object instances, you can just untick the checkbox in the behavior properties, or use the "Set Enabled" action to enable/disable it at runtime.

  It may be easier to combine similar enemies into a single sprite. Say, all blue enemies into blueEnemy sprite, all red into redEnemy sprite. This way you can create a blueEnemy instance and then pick a random animation for it.

  Alternatively, you can create a random enemy using "Create by name" action. For example:

  Create object by name: choose("blueSkeleton", "blueZombie", "blueGoblin")

  There's nothing wrong with using physics for such effects. You just need to find the right physics values - for example, I think the gravity in your video could be higher.

  I have 3 instance variables in the sprite "Enemy Hit Area" to store the UIDs of:

  With hierarchies you don't need to store their UIDs! Use "pick parent" and "pick children" conditions to pick other objects in the hierarchy. For example:

  Hero on collision with EnemyHitArea
  EnemyHitArea pick parent Enemy
  Enemy pick child Bomb
   : Bomb remove from parent
   : Bomb play animation "Explosion"
