    i woud like a ball to randomly spawn on the screen and knock it with another ball (that i'v already created)

    into the goals.

    i already have the first ball that i control with the mouse/touch ,

    but creating the second ball to only respond/bounce when i want it, at the angle i hit it i cant do.

    the second ball either just falls(gravity)

    or it goes bouncing around if i set it to bullet.

    i basically want the second ball to be spawned every 5 seconds STAGNANT and only when i knock it will it bounce off my ball at the angle i hit it.

    thanks

    (and if any other objects hit second ball i dont want it to move

  • Each main level is wrap around meaning if you go to far you'll end up on the opposite end, however unlike

    Pac Man i want the screen scrolling giving the impression that the space each level takes place in is infinite.

    so basically instead of appearing on the opposite end of screen, as you run to the right the stage seamlessly repeats its self like a tiled background , the same screen is repeated (wrapped) with all enemies and loops

    plz check out sega game flicky

    youtube.com/watch?v=6SoMLclPOPM (sorry i cant add link my rep isnt high enough i just joined this site)

    i really need help with this if anyone has knowledge or any ideas, im sure there is someone smart enough to figure this out coz i am just a beginer and cant wrap my brain around this (excuse the pun)

  • i tried ,i didn't get it to work here is a link to what im trying to achieve , its the classic sega game flicky (see how the bird passes the same exit sign when moving to the right. i want to create a similar game but struggle to get the game to scroll like this

  • hi plz help someone. I'm making my first game and i do not know how to make the actual "game" wrapped .

    basically i have a platform sprite and i have the screen scrolled to him, the "hero"

    so when hero leaves layout going right he appears on the left and vice versa. (this is the concept i want but not entirely).

    so this is where i need help, i want instead of the hero appearing on the left when leaving the layout on right,

    the hero runs right towards layout end and the screen follows him and its like a tile effect where the layout is repeated ,including (background, enemies and all items left there.)

    so its like a loop effect on the actual game when played not only the background.

    not sure if im explaining properly but if anyone understand and is able to guide me it would greatly be appreciated.thanks

    basically i want each stage to be just one screen where hero collects items, but if running to the right or left like in mario bros instead of seeing the next layout u smoothly run into the same layout.
