  • Are you trying to move a text object from left to right ?

  • Give the pictures a instance variable and make it the same for the matching pictures , then when you drag a colored picture over the black , compare the variables .

  • Read up on overlap at offset , used in conjunction with 8 direction i think it won't be difficult for pushing and or pulling , i have used it with 8 direction as well as platform movement .

  • No problem , think of overlap offset as similar to place_free or place_empty in gamemaker .

  • Thanks granpa.

    How to I check an offset of an imagepoint?

    What exactly are your trying to do , is this related to last question or a different check ?

  • Is overlapping another object

    Is overlapping at offset

    True if any instance is overlapping any instance of another object. The collision polygons are taken in to account if set, as well as the object's size and rotation. The 'offset' variant will test for an overlap at an offset from the first object. For example, testing for an overlap at an offset of (100, 0) will temporarily move the object to the right 100 pixels, test for the overlap, then move it back again.

  • I think using 8 direction would make things easier for you in this case , but if your adamant about custom movement i would play around with the stepping features of the behavior .

  • You need to post this in website issues plus you can read this last post

  • First check this out in system conditions

    Compare two values

    Compare any two expressions (which can either numbers or text) with each other. They can be compared as Equal, Not equal, Less, Less or equal, Greater or Greater or equal.

    and now this in sprite expressions

    ImagePointX

    ImagePointY

    Retrieve the position of an image point on the currently displaying animation frame of the object. You can pass either the zero-based index of the image point, or a string of its name.

  • You don't mention what version of windows , and have you updated service packs and display drivers .

  • This is probably off track with what your asking , but for simplicity in 3d or just to have a little fun with making something in 3d take a look at this , I use it to show kids (8-12) the basics of a 3d engine , you won't make anything serious with it , but the engine is very simple and my students have made some nice little projects with it .
