Spritefont has the "attach" event, but if I recall correctly, it doesn't work

Is there a way to display text with more than one color? For example:

"Status: <font color=green>open</font>"

Maybe I can use python for this, but I dont know how

This is how I'd do it:

First, create a variable for the player, that will store what direction he is facing, and it will be set when you press the direction keys, like this:

On press Left:

set player.direct to 180

On press Right:

set player.direct to 0

Then, at the bullet spawn event:

On 'shot' press:

spawn bullet

bullet: set angle to player.direct

Same error here, caused by "is overlapping" conditions

I don't think you can draw lines with construct, like in these games, but you can do it with slightly larger objects, say, 8 pixels in width.

Now let's say you have a window that is 640px wide with these "wall" objects on the top and bottom scrolling left, that's 160 objects, which I guess are no problem for HTML5

Yes, C2 will automatically pick the only specific objects involved in the collision

I was going to suggest the exclamation mark as well. You could say it could confuse the non-programmer crowd that uses C2, but this reminds me of the discussion that happened quite some time ago, about arrays and other stuff being 1-index in CC, and it was done that way to help those users understand the program better

The best way to do animations, is to have a box that handles all collision and other events, and then the separate sprite, that you will position on top of the box. All alignment stuff should be handled in the sprite

Wouldn't it be better if you put the imagepoint on the player box, instead of the sprite? This would avoid confusion and possible problems

If you want to know how to use arrays, check the manual entry: http://www.scirra.com/manual/108/array
