  I am creating a random number of debris sprites, enabling the physics and then trying to loop over them and apply a random impulse. However the debris always seems to come out of a very narrow field to the left between 180 and 270 degrees (left and up).

  Hi

  I need to show a level timer, to 2 decimal places. I have a timer firing every 0.01 seconds and I am updating a variable called LevelTime and updating a Sprite Font.

  I am using the trick (LevelTime * 100)/100 trick to get to 2 decimal places. But when the value is 1, or 1.1...I want it to display as 1.00 or 1.10...this isn’t happening at the moment and the alignment in the sprite font is jumping all over the place.

  Sorry, maybe polygon was incorrect. But why can you not define a circle to act as the overlap / collision shape in the sprite editor.

  Hi,

  Why isn't there a circular collision shape available for sprites?

  If I want a circular object to detect collisions, can I use a physics polygon and still use the "overlaps" function to use the circle polygon?

  Thanks

  SM
