Hey everyone,

So I have this sprite object that is a loop animation of a smoke. I've imported an animation from Spriter that has a head with a cigarrete.

I've pinned the smoke object with the sprite imported, and it fits and follows ok if the character is in idle animation, standing still. However, when I start moving (scml object is pinned to another object with standard platformer), the smoke has a delay following up, like it gets left behind a few frames trying to follow the position.

Here's a simplified version that illustrates the issue

Any idea why this would happend, and how to fix?

Here is my attempt at a fix, is this working how you wanted?

Yes, that's perfect!

I see what you did, both objects has 8 direction bur only the movement one has colision.

Great stuff, thank you so much

I've got one (pretty obvious) solution...

The object wasn't perfectlly square ¬¬

It's not rotating as I want, bu at least this way it looks the right way.

Here's an exaple file... just bump in the wall and move up and down.... there has to be a way to make the object rotate normally <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cry.gif" alt=":cry:" title="Crying or Very Sad">

Maybe try using one object for the movement, and another pinned object for the sprite rotation?

Hey Quicksand, thanks for the reply.

I'm actually developing a system where an animated sprite is pinned with the 8 direction object, and the sprite changes depending on the other object's rotation... so I get this weird behavior when colliding with a wall... one solution would be make the object bounce back a little from the wall, but I don't understand why it has this behaviour.

Hey everyone, thanks in advance for reading this.

I'm having an issue with 8 direction movement that I'm not sure if can be fixed.

Since I can´t upload a capx file, all there is to it is an object with 8 direction (a triangle helps visualization) and another solid as a wall. (like a topdown view)

If you move and collide frontally with the solid, and then start moving sideways, the 8 direction object stops rotating to its direction, like the face gets stuck on the solid.

Any way to solve this?

Thanks

Hey everyone

I'm trying to make a tiled wall using this as reference:

I know that I can use 9-patch to make a resizable wall texture and keeb the borders effects, but how about the corners?

They don´t seem to be a different object, since the texture is continuous... and if I just put two straight walls, I'll have one on top of the other with the border giving the feel of the walls being cut.

I'm still a begginner here. I'm assuming that this should have a complicated solution, but is there any way at all to acheive this?

Other examples at the artist's behance (search for Amon Ra top down shooter map, can´t post any link yet =/)

Thanks!
