  • Perfect. Thanks! I really appreciate it

  • Also, if I have an inventory of items, will this carry over as well if I spawn it? Or will I have to do something special with it?

  • Right, of course, but I'd seen on another thread that the more event sheets you add, the more bogged down your game will become, and it might affect gameplay. Is this true?

  • Oh, do I have to add all of that to the new layout? Isn't there any way I can transfer the events from the first layout into the second without writing it all over again? I'd heard that creating tons of event pages for layouts can bog down the game, so I'm trying to avoid this.

  • Edit: Ok, so I added "x" after the layer, aka tiledbackground14.x and my player now spawns where I want him to. However, I'm unable to move my character at all. Anything else I need to add to the spawn event?

  • Awesome. Now, the layer I'm trying to add it to says "it needs an expression after it". I'm not quite sure what this means.

  • And I appreciate it Koss

  • So that would be "Spawn another object" right?

  • Ah, I got it . Thanks! So I figured out how to switch to a different layout when I overlap and press the button. Now comes an even more noob question....how do I get my sprite to spawn when the new layout starts up?

  • Do I need to create a sub-event for this? And I'm not finding an "open door" command, unless you mean "move to layout".

  • The current game I'm working on has a system of rooms for the character to enter and search for an object. I want him to walk up to the door, and once he's in front, press a button to enter. How can I do this?

  • Interesting. I'm always down for word games. Any chance of this making its way to Windows Phone?

  • Luna, I took your advice (sorry it took me so long to get my sh*t together!) and recut the background. Now it fits fine inside the viewing window and everything is better. Sorry guys for being such a noob! I promise to read the manual before posting silly questions again

  • Luna, I can't cut the background. The image I uploaded is the same dimensions as the actual background I want to use. When I move it to the viewing window (i.e. the dotted lines), the background lines up fine, but when I put my platforms up there, they look like this:

    And this:

  • Luna, the same thing still happens when I set all parameters to 0, 0. Parallax is 0, 0 and X/Y are both set to 0, 0. The image is also in the Background layer.
