  It's hard to tell. Like I said, you have multiple "Demon On Moveto arrived" events. Maybe several of them are triggered at the same time.

  I would suggest debugging - add "Browser Log" actions to these events, press F12 in preview and check messages in Console. You'll see which events are triggered and when. You can also use Debug Mode with breakpoints.

  Yes, you can use Particle object to emit sprites.

  Oh, I see the problem. Yeah, you don't have to worry about collisions if you are not using them.

  If you want to get rid of the red outline for all tiles, you can manually edit one JSON file in your project.

  Make a back up copy of your project file, rename it to .zip (or save as folder). Extract files, find your tilemap in ObjectTypes folder and edit "tile-collision-polys" section in it manually. You can copy/paste it from here:

  dpaste.com/4AE6RDJ4X

  There are 1000 lines, you can paste as many lines as there are tiles in your tilemap. Just make sure to preserve the correct JSON structure.

  The same way you create icons on the minimap, but instead you draw a rectangle on DrawingCanvas. For coins draw a circle.

  I've made a mini-map for another project with Drawing Canvas. On every tick draw a portion of the map on it - copy walls, enemies, coins etc.

  The advantage is that there are fewer objects in the game. It may also be slightly better for performance, as blend modes may be slow on mobile.

  Particles may work

  You can use Touch.TouchID expression in "On touch start" event. Check out this demo:

  howtoconstructdemos.com/air-hockey-game-template-for-two-players

  Or it may be easier to use Touch index. You can loop through all active touches and get their coordinates:

  Repeat Touch.TouchCount times
   Create particles at (Touch.XAt(loopindex), Touch.YAt(loopindex))

  Your video link doesn't work, you need to upload the video to some file sharing service or youtube.

  But more importantly, you need to share your project file, or additional screenshots of your code. From what I can see, the problem may be with the "State machine3" group. Or possibly you have other "Demon MoveTo arrived" events somewhere else, which may trigger simultaneously and mess with the logic.

  Also, remove "Wait for previous action to complete" action, this is the wrong way to use it.

  1. You can do it with blend modes. Use a mask sprite with a blend mode like Destination Out (or something similar) on the same layer as your mini-map. See the official Blend Modes template for examples.

  2. I don't know, you need to show your code.

  Connect them (ligically) by CoinID, the same way you did with tiles. Then you can pick icon by CoinID and destroy it. Another option is using a container.

  Don't add Trigger Once to loops.. If you need to calculate this total once, do it in On Start of the layout event.

  Unfortunately, there is no such expression. You need to loop through all instances and sum up all values:

  Global (or local) variable TotalAmount
  
  For each Coins : Add Coins.CoinValue_IV to TotalAmount

  I see you decided to try C3 :)

  It's very easy to limit the number of lines.

  Some of them follow the player. Some are fixed in the upper left corner.

  Sorry, it's not clear. Is it a bug you need to fix? Or you want some objects to stay fixed in the corner, and other objects to follow the player?

  If HUD layer has 0% parallax, then all objects on this layer will not move.
