It's not really my idea. I read it a long time ago here in the forum. But I didn't finde the thread anymore.

Thanks for that info! Wow I knew it was easy! Thanks a lot!

I'm probably more of a beginner, so maybe this is bad advice ^,^ ;

As I understand it, the thing you are trying to do can be solved with a bit of clever maths being used to create an offset.

But my math is weak, and I suspect that approach is better suited to more code heavy environments, so instead, This is what I would do:

Create an invisible sprite to serve as the radius, with it's origin and next image point being the distance between the two objects. Set this arm's position to the object you want to be rotated around and attach the rotating object to it's image point. Rotate the arm ( I think using Sine movement behaviour on the angle property would be the easiest way of getting this result, but I haven't tried that before.)

Sounds a biiit complicated, but I'll give it a shot!

This is probably something very simple, but I'm not very experienced, so I'm not sure how to do this. I'd say that I'm somewhere in the upper range between a beginner and an Intermediate. I believe I know enough to understand any suggestions.

Please!!! Thank you so much in advance!!!

You can keep track of the current song when you play it, and apply more logic to test if it keeps playing or needs to switch. And/or use "Is tag playing".

Thanks for all your help! You've steered me into the right direction!

Oh, I did it slightly different... Thanks for the example! It works! But what if It's a different song between layouts?

Check if music is playing first then, and only start if not playing.

I got rid of the event that stopped the music and the end of layout, then I did this, but it still restarts the music.

Music will naturally keep playing, so you must be restarting it either in your "On start of layout", or somewhere else.

Yeah, but I have a retry button that restarts the layout, wouldn't that make the song start again without ending the other song?

I have a Level Select Layout, but I also want a World Select layout. The thing is, I can't figure out how to keep a song playing, even when the World Select layout ends, and it changes to the Level Select Layout. I don't want it to restart, just keep playing.

And the same goes for the levels. I have a song that plays, but when you restart the level, the song restarts, which isn't really a big deal, but it would be better if it just kept playing.

How do I do this? Thanks in advance for any advice!!!

Irregular4 is the enemy to be spawned, and SpawnIrr4 is the function. Spawn is the object that spawns right before the enemy is spawned.

Try adding a sub-event: System Repeat X amount of times.

Helpful to upload a capx or screenshot of your events.

I'll try your way and see where that gets me.

I changed it to an every X second condition, but that made them spawn at uneven intervals.
