  A change of direction.

  When trying to use line of site I wanted to make my objects hide behind the other line of site objects. I found that making all my objects solid just made them all invisible. Anyway this is a work around test.

  I bet there is an easier way ?

  line of site test

  I will tidy up the capx and post soon.

  Thanks for that - lets hope the update is sooner rather than later. Although I would prefer them to work on construct than on the web site.

  Thanks for the replies.

  I know this was a bad example I was just trying to get my head around the ideas.

  I have no idea why it was going left - OddConfections went right ?

  Obviously my loop was running and then running again and again. Also as I was adding loopindex and loopindex would be getting bigger then the step (to the right) would also get bigger.

  Anyway after a couple of changes it is running as expected

  Thanks for the help.

  Trying to get my head around the wait x seconds. Don't know if it is a bug or more likely that I've gone brain dead from playing at the computer nearly all day.

  All I have got is a sprite set towards the middle of the screen

  <img src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/143636437/examples%20for%20web/Ashampoo_Snap_2013.12.28_20h43m52s_001.png" border="0">

  Now I thought this would move the sprite slowly to the right of the screen (with a 0.1 second delay between each move) ?

  It goes left and loopindex is sent to the text box as -1.

  If I disable the Wait loopindex*0.1 seconds then it goes to the right (obviously without the delay).

  Please someone point me at what I am doing wrong as I am pulling my hair out (and I didn't have much to start with !)

  capx

  I've been playing around with this (not got very far) but have a look at http://www.scirra.com/forum/another-waste-of-time_topic83212_post485669.html?KW=#485669 and it might give you some ideas.
