  Some care might be needed in using alt with (some ?) web browsers.

  when I tried something like

  when alt key is down ..do something

  then it only appeared to work every other press. (No problem in node webkit but chrome didn't like it)

  Good luck.

  sorry - I missed your reply ( if you add username to your post then that username gets a message and knows to look). Anyway all sorted now ?

  (and I have also just seen that I can tick a box to get Notified when a reply is posted - so I will give that a try)

  One way is to just stretch out the arrows width relative to the distance to the mouse and then multiply the arrows height by the know size difference (so in my case the arrow height is 2/3 of its length)

  If you take the for each out of the sub event and just have it as a separate event

  so it becomes something like

  start of layout....(set up as before)

  (separate event)

  if variable1=0

  for each array -- set variable1 to variable1+1

  do you get the right answer ?

  (not checked)

  would

  =atan(sprite.physics.velocityY / sprite.physics.velocityX)

  work ?

  (Not tested )

  Edit:

  Close - but no.

  If I understand you

  you have 20 (invisible?) sprites that you are going to use to spawn an enemy sprite from.

  the enemy sprite should appear, pause for a few seconds and then disappear

  if so look at

  every x seconds

  system : pick random instance "InvisibleSprite" -- "InvisibleSprite" spawn another object "EnemySprite"

  give the enemy sprites the fade behaviour set to something like :

  fade in 1 sec

  pause 4 seconds

  fade out 1 sec

  fade to destroy

  (and if that was a clear as mud....

  Re. Title "Solved" - Never tried that but I guess if you go to the first post in this thread the subject /title is in a box at the top - try altering that ?

  re "Thumbs up" - I don't think that is possible ? A "thank you" reply is always appreciated. (A few coppers in a charity box next time you pass one would not do any harm either... )

  Here is an example of using using physics angular velocity - maybe you could adapt it ?

  look at the examples that come with C2 (Lighting.capx ). Might also look at https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/792/th ... ows-part-1 (possibly the best ever tutorial ever done ? <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink"> )

  The already called/not called is the green highlight in the earlier screen capture/ event sheet picture.

  The function new map should only be called once per "old" map - part of this function is now to check the score and create the skeleton if the score is over 5 (in this example)
