There is a way to do it with a single event.

• First, you need a tiled background with texture in size of power of two (16x16, 32x32, 256x256 ex.)
• Put the tiled background on a layer that has 0% X and Y scroll rates. Make it cover the whole display.
• Make an Always event like this: +Always TiledBackground: Set offset to ScrollX, ScrollY[/code:2bejle25] (You can add a factor like ScrollX*0.5, ScrollY*0.5 to make it scroll more slowly)
• You'll also need to scroll the display, just add this to the Always event: > System Scroll to X ScrollX+(MouseX-ScrollX)*TimeDelta

System Scroll to Y ScrollY+(MouseY-ScrollY)*TimeDelta

[/code:2bejle25]

(This will always scroll the display smoothly toward mouse coordinates)

Make sure you have Unbounded scrolling ticked in Layout Properties

Voila!

The question is - does ANYONE use those subanimations?

Or, well, if you've got a way with numbers, you can use polinomial functions to define the path. Y'know, splines and stuff.

Sorry, couldn't resist

You can have the bullet remember UID of its shooter and have it turn toward the enemy matching that UID.

Java's performance is really appalling on my system, so yeah, there is a 'no' from me. Flash is also a 'no' option for me.

Oh dear, Dropbox has been reported as malicious site again...

Sounds like it is using a custom plugin. Everyone who wants to open the project containing that plugin needs to have it .

Hehe, grats!

Don't worry, we all went through something like that

Create your own movement engine. Allow it to move only if it is overlapping "passable" while on "solid", or if it is not overlapping "solid".

It can be tricky to develop your own movement engine, however I believe it is well worth it, since you can customize it to your heart's content. Double, triple jumps, slides, whatever. The platform movement behaviour is kind of a basic template that is there for less demanding users.
