  All you have to do to make it work is to set the bullet set angle property to NO.

  How do you make the text count the score?

  Best way is to use a global variable and set it to score, then display the global variable in the text.

  If your score is held by a global variable you could use

  on start of layout

  • set text: GlobalVariableScore

  Do you have a personal or business license, for if not it is not allowed to make money from Construct 2.

  I'm asking because you dont have the medal on your avatar.

  Add a for each enemy condition, that way it will play only once for each enemy.

  would using tiled background or 9-patch and setting height or width work?

  You should set the overlap at offset per movement direction.

  Could you share your capx, so we can see how you have your events set up?

  Would adding an is not overlapping at offset condition before the move action help?

  I think topicstarter would rather not use events to set the variable.

  I guess he wants to see the global variable on the eventsheet, so he can insert/change the value there.

  global variables are global.

  If you'd rather use local variables, which are local, just create a group and put all events in the eventsheet as subevents of the group. that way you could create new variables with the same name on every event sheet.

  Why you think that would be easier I have no idea, but it is possible.

  There is no need for duplicates, for the variables are global.

  On start of layout - set global variable

  It's not easy and will take a lot of tweaking, but there have been many who tried. Just search the forum for 8-direction with jump.

  I guess your best bet would be to create a floor-sprite with 8-directions behaviour to which the player sprite is pinned and on jump unpin the player and have a jump action. When the player lands again, repin the player.

  A global variable is global and as such can be used in your whole project. If you'd like the variable to have different values in different levels you will have to set these values in the event sheet.

  So on overlap you set animation and directly destroy saw.

  if so after saw is destroyed there is no overlap anymore and slime overlaps background again and as such reverts to run animation.

  so the animation will only play one tick.
