wow that looks awful... looks like a mario ripoff released 20 years ago that nobody, even then, would want to buy.

Compare values: random(100) is less than 33

marvelous

i'd like a simple condition like this -- triggers randomly with the specified percentage chance.

i know it's already possible, which i'm about to start coding -- pick random value, store value as private variable, compare value. it'd just be nice to have a simple condition instead of all that extra work.

example:

Bullet: overlaps Enemy 0

33% Chance

FunctionCall function "breakArmor" (and Remember picked objects)

so if the bullet overlaps the enemy, there's a 33% chance it will break the armor

sounds neat.

Ok, I'll say it then..... Blender sucks.

Sure it can do everything, but who wants to learn a program that's completely keystroke driven?

someone who wants to work fast and effeciently?

whatever works for you though...

got some basic AI working for drone teamates. as of now, they'll fetch balls and pass them to the player (if the player doesn't already have a ball). if there's no balls to fetch, they randomly wonder around. i think i'll have fun fleshing out the AI -- i was originally a bit apprehensive making AI for the first time, but it's been pretty cool so far.

i think it's planned. i wish i knew how soon it'd be here -- i don't know whether or not it's worth it to spend the time integrating joy2key into my game directly.

reminds me of http://www.playauditorium.com/

there's a lot of utility in being able to interact with invisible objects.

one option you could try is to destroy/create them as needed. i'm curious though -- is this the main menu? because it'd be better to do a main menu as a separate layout. and if it's a pause menu (or something similar that needs to not reset the game layout), i'd suggest using a modal layout (layout within a layout).

edit: also i think this should be in help section

nice. i'd submit something, but i had just started working on a game 3 days ago and will continue working on that (attempting to have it ready for a contest later in february). the "You are not allowed to submit a game that you have started before the beginning of the contest, you must create a game specifically for this contest." rule disqualifies it (i think it's a good rule though)
