  Lots of ways you could do it. How about this: randomSpawn.capx

  Set pin mode to 'Position only' and for the flying problem set the 8Direction 'Set angle' value to 'No'.

  You're not actually pinning fluttershy to the player. You're setting it's position every tick.

  To prevent the player standing up inside a wall do something like:

  If the player is crawling and down is not pressed then

     change the player size to (39,126)

     if the player is not overlapping wall at offset 0,-1 then

        stand up... set animations etc..

     else

        set size back to (39,126) + stay crouching

  Only set the crouching animation if the player isn't crawling ie. when action = 0. Otherwise the animation is being set to crouch and then crawl every tick so the crawl animation keeps getting reset and you only ever see the first frame.

  For the flipping, use the 'On animation finished' trigger to change to the run animation.

  animationTestUpdate.capx

  *edit* I changed the origin point to the bottom of the animation. It stops the player 'jumping' when you change it's size

  You have to set the player's position at the start of the layout. You're setting it before the layout restarts.

  (ha 57MB... I was thinking "why is this taking so long to upload?")

  Here's a screenshot anyway:

  I made an example using all physics objects:

  It is spawning at the image point but the physics object rotates about it's centre of mass and not about the origin.

  Oh I missed that you ran them both in the emulator. It's probably got to do with the mobile optimisation that's done on export.

  scirra.com/construct2/releases/r92

  "Performance improvement for some mobile browsers after exporting. It may be worth re-testing your games on mobile if you have already since the framerate may now be measurably higher in places, depending on the system. Note the optimisation is only applied on export - if you use Preview-on-LAN feature it won't be any faster. "

  When the character is on a platform it's slightly overlapping it, so...

  System: PG_Hor = 1

  Player: Is overlapping PL_horizontal

     PL_horizontal: Set width to self.Width-4

  Opera doesn't support WebGL/hardware acceleration so it's going to be slower. Well Opera 12 was released yesterday which has experimenatal hardware acceleration but you have to manually enable it.

  You have 'unbounded scrolling' turned on in the layout properties so you can keep moving outside the layout for ever. And the bullets have the DestroyOutsideLayout behaviour which is why they disappear instantly when you're outside the layout.
