  How would I go about creating an object that will dodge the bullets i shoot, or dodge any other object for that matter.I tried, but i can't think of anything simple.

  The reason I'm asking is because i have a plane shooting game , and i want the boss battle to be more entertaining, by making the boss plane to dodge the bullets you shoot as much as it can.

  I think he means something like:

  On button clicked:

  • Object1 spawn Object3
  • Object1 set position to Object2.X, Object2.Y
  • Object2 set position to Object3.X, Object3.Y
  • Destroy Object3

  Object2 and Object1 switch places !

  How about: random(10) - 5. Would that work?

  Why don't you just stop saving space and split the event into three subevents?

  First event:

  set global1 to: Attack.Value('BaseDamage')*Attack.Value('lightning')*Defender.Value('Lightning')

  set global2 to: Attack.Value('BaseDamage')*Attack.Value('Fire')*Defender.Value('Fire')

  set global3 to: Attack.Value('BaseDamage')*Attack.Value('Earth')*Defender.Value('Earth')

  set global4 to: Attack.Value('BaseDamage')*Attack.Value('Water')*Defender.Value('Water')

  Second event:

  if any of the global variables 1 to 4 are "0" set them to "1"

  and finally:

  set global('Attack') to : global1*global2*global3*global4*global('AttackStrength')*global('ExtraDamage')

  I know that's a lot of global variables and events but I don't think there's another simple and easily understandable way to do it.

  Hope this helps.

  I am wondering if there is a way to use an objects name as a family event somehow,like for example:

  Blue: Object name is "Player"

  -Blue: "Destroy"

  and if so. how.

  Thanks in advance.

  This is a small example of how, when picking a number, to prefer the smaller values. You can change the degree of gradation by dragging the slider. If you have any questions on how this works feel free to ask.
