  Use the Animation 'On finished' trigger:

  Player: On animation "attack" finished

     Player: Set animation to "idle"

  It's the same idea. When the player touches the trampoline, set it's x and y vectors.

  vector x = cos(angle)*speed

  vector y = sin(angle)*speed

  where angle is the direction you want to go.

  Mmm kinda tricky. SPL1 is at 171,192. When you move, it's position stays the same but it appears to move because of the parallax effect. If you move to the right then SPL1 appears to be at, say, 250,192 but to hit it you still need to shoot at 171,192.

  So... I created some dummy targets on layer 3 and set their positions to the target's positions taking the parallax into account.

  Instead of

  Player: Is overlapping UpCorner

  try

  Player: Is overlapping PL_vertical at offset (0,20)

  You're missing a comma before url.

  src: local('BitLine15'), url('https://dl.dropbox.com/u/26730853/webfonts_chosen_byte/BitLine15.woff') format('woff');

  Right, the textbox requires text and the array contains numbers. Try setting it to

  str(array.at(0,0,0))

  . set text debug 2: array.at(1,1,1)

  The array index starts at 0. array.at(1,1,1) is outside the array, try array.at(0,0,0).

  You can use the "Audio: All preloads complete condition" to check when it's done preloading instead of waiting 12 seconds.

  I got carried away messing with this...

  I made a drop shadow text plugin anyway.

  Demo

  It's probably related to these two:

  Player: Flying = 1

     Set animation flying...

  is resetting the animation every tick when flying = 1.

  Change it to:

  Player: Flying = 1

  System: Trigger once

     Set animation flying..

  Also only set the moving and standing animations if the player is on the ground. (Player: Platform is on floor)

  It says in the manual:

  he Physics behavior simulates physics separately to the Construct 2 layout. Construct 2 will try to keep the Physics and Construct 2 "worlds" synchronised if one changes but not the other, but this can be unpredictable.

  When you set the physics velocity to 0 it's not updated the very next tick. It seems to take 2-3 ticks before the velocity is actually 0.

  I was looking into this (and I've just started looking at the SDK). I think the drop shadow code would have to be in the object's draw function. As far as I can tell, behaviors can't draw on the canvas. At least none of the existing ones do.

  You could make a new object 'DropShadowSprite' easily enough but it seems like overkill to create a copy of the Sprite plugin just to add this effect. What do you think?

  A drop shadow text plugin could be useful and text is rendered to a 2d canvas anyway. Or it's something that could be added to the built-in plugin easily enough. I wonder what Ashley thinks of that?

  That's a cool idea, using the platform behaviour on the box. Here's a couple of examples I made (pushing only).

  The easy way (kinda jumpy): platformPushCrate1.capx

  Using pinned behaviour: platformPushCrate2.capx
