  Edited:

  How do I create a wave system that allows me to do something like..

  1. set the type of enemies that spawn

  2. set each enemies spawn rate

  3. set each enemy points

  4. set how many of each type needs to be killed to advance to the next wave

  5.I would like it to use an array so that I can define multiple waves at a time

  6.I would like to be so that when the wave reaches a number it uses the array to set 1,2,3,and 4

  I want the wave system to be virtually infinite

  so that is why I would like to use an array or something

  ya

  basicly 4 directions

  right, up, left ,down

  and it only lets you press 2 of the 4 direction that are next to eachother

  rightup upleft, leftdown, downright would be the limit of multiple buttons being pressed

  How do I create a virtual Dpad for something like a tablet?

  I know it has to to with the touch object but how do you set it up in code?

  the default Dpad only supported 8 directions right?

  how would I do something like this and still be able to do things like double tapping

  hmm ok thanks

  i removed the every tick from event 9

  i changed event 10 to say pick nearest player.x player.y

  I kept the event 11 in event 9 as I need it to not collide with the player on startup

  however is still doesn't work

  it seems now only some of the missiles home in on the player

  yes but it doesn't take the object to look for

  and it checks the object using the code too

  I would to pick nearest(target.x target.y)

  but that would only check nearest object to the target and thats not what i want

  how would I get the closest instance of a specified object

  in gamemaker there is a function called instance_nearest that returns the closest instance of the object you specify
