Wow, thanks for the quick replies, guys!

I had a feeling there was some silly little thing I was forgetting on the piranha one, but it's crunch time and I was getting nervous.

As for inheritance layers, holy crap that is an amazing feature. Thanks for telling me about it! That will save me a lot of trouble.

Again, thanks a lot!

First, the download link for my cap:

So here's my current problemss:

1. My piranha enemy goes through walls, despite the fact that my events say if it collides with a solid (which the walls are), it changes the animation to the opposite direction, which should call the event to change it's direction accordingly. But it decides to ignore everything and just go through the wall, not even changing its animation. This is one of the big problems in the game right now (which is why it's up top!), and I have no idea why it's doing this.

2. I can't find a way to accurately go to the last layout I was on from my pause menu. I put it on its own layout because I plan to have many layouts for this game, and it'd be a pain to put in a pause menu layer for each layout. I tried setting a variable in the ini to the layout, but that crashed when I paused it for some reason. Right now I have it so I can pause, but I can never un-pause. If anyone knows a good way to go back to the last layout I was on, please tell.

That's all the main problems I have right now (I solved a couple by having a revelation while typing up the problems, but the ones above still stump me). If you can help me with any of them, I'll greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot, chrisbrobs! I deleted that random condition and it runs normally now.

I don't even know what's happening, I haven't really touched it in a while, but last I checked, it worked fine. When I run it now, it just pops up for a split second then disappears, there's no error message even if I run it in debug mode. I just don't know where to begin to make it work, I don't really want to start over because this is for a class I'm taking, and we're almost due for another progress check.

Thanks in advance.
