  I have mine as sub-events.

  Mouse -> On Left button Clicked

  System -> [variable name] = 1 ..... here are events for that

  Else

  System -> [variable name] = 2 ..... here are events for that

  Note, you do need the "Else" condition for the second sub-event and beyond. And to get to the variable name part, it's called Compare Variable after you select the System event.

  Oh I didn't know about sub-events. Thanks for the help!

  You could have their choice affect a variable and then the events in the layout rely on that variable. For instance, if you press the left mouse button, the game checks the variable to see what weapon is equipped, then based on that it fires a different type of bullet.

  I see what you're saying but how do you make the game check what the variable is?

  In the game I'm making I want the player to be able to choose different things (such as bullets to fire) and I was wondering if it was possible to have all choices lead to the same layout, but still have their choice to affect the game play. I was just going to have each choice lead to a duplicate of the same layout with the item they chose unless there is an easier way to do so. Anyone have an idea?

  I'm making my first game and it is 2D and I want the character to be shooting the way that he is facing (left or right). Shooting 'right' is perfectly fine but when the character is facing left, the bullets still go right. How can I fix this?

  Hello everyone this may be a weird place to ask this but I am currently making my first game and don't know of anywhere to find free music. It's a pixelized game so I'd like 8-Bit sounding music but I don't know where to find any for free. Does anyone know a good place?

  I have tried many times to make a start button and it never works. I have tried: Mouse--->Left button Clicked on Sprite10 (StartButton) -----> System ----->Go to Layout 2.

  When I ran the layout and clicked start, it didn't work. Next I tried: Touch---->On tap gesture on Sprite10 (StartButton) ------>System-------> Go to Layout 2. That didn't work either. All the tutorials did that. Am I missing something? Is it glitched?
