As mentioned in another thread, there's a free program called Format Factory. That converts one thing into another, I use it all the time. :)

Thanks guys.

alexei: That's sort of what I'm after but how would I do it without the targets, just the main sprite?

I want to do something like:

right key is pressed:

... check if there's a solid 32 pixels to the right

......if there isn't move player

... else don't move player

So I need to check 32 pixels in the direction the player will be moving first.

Sorry, may be I'm not looking in the right place, could you point it out to me? :)

I'm trying to recreate a game i was working on and I need my character to move in steps of 32 pixels at a time, is that possible using the 8 direction behaviour?

Edit: I tried using Set X to player.X + 32 in the event sheets but I need to have collision.

Brilliant! That's it! Thanks Tom. <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Mine doesn't seem to be working in my sig, works fine in the post though:

What am I doing wrong?

Sorry about that. :?{

t's good that you searched before posting a new topic though.

That's the dilemma, should you create a new topic only to be told there's already one and you should have searched? Or search and bump an old one only to be told that you should have created a new one?

Anyway, here's a present for you.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but better than to start a new one. how do you get an Arcade card to show? I copy and pasted into my sig but it just shows as html code.

Yes, with swamp gas reflecting the moon onto flying birds which then reflected it back onto cabbage leaves... easy mistake to make... :)

ou have to consider not everyone can download 100 Mo/sec in the world.

If cloud /browser based gaming is to take off then people will have to submit to fast broadband speeds otherwise it will all be a complete faliure.

Great! <img src="smileys/smiley20.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
