um, where do i find random?! i mean, is it in system?! or......?!

Hi,

I'm making a top down shooter, and i've created this object to act as a box of items. When clicked the box will open to reveal a random powerup.

I currently have two.

Question is: how do I get it to be random(either powerup a, or powerup b)??

Thanks a million!!

Oh, Hey that helped!!

Thanks alot you guys!!

um, how do i post my .cap?!

EDIT:- http://rapidshare.com/files/454351637/your.cap

Um, its at the bottom right, but it is inside the layout border(window outline). I kept it at the bottom cuz my game starts from bottom, then proceeds upwards.

Also, I'm creating a new health icon!! restarting Construct didn't help!!

Please, someone, HELP ME!!

Yup, its on the top most layer!! scroll rate x/y is 0%!! what im i doing wrong??

also, when i copied my HUD to the new layer, something went wrong.

"error in private variables! the selected object has 0 variables, but the selected instance has 1. please report this bug to scirra" its my health sprite. its gone. it doesn't take any damage too!!

any idea what to do?! other than remaking the object?!

Oh hey, that worked, I hadn't put "distance".

Thnx alot.

Now only to get my HUD working.

Hi again,

Um, nothing seemed to helped.

I did what u said about the HUD, i put it on another layer on top of the normal layer, went to properties, and changed the Scroll X Rate and Scroll Y Rate to 0% and 0%, respectively. And now, I can't even see my HUD let alone it scroll along with my character.

Then I tried the "Pick by Comparison", and put:

Enemy.X, Enemy.Y, Player.X, Player.Y

lower or equal

(I tried a whole bunch of numbers ranging from 1 to 1000)

and my Action was:

Enemy: Move to Player(RTS mode)

I also tried changing it from "lower or equal" to "greater or equal".

And it either was the same wherein "Enemy" would start charging at me, or he would just stand there, no matter how close or far I got.

Please help me!!

Hi,

I'm kinda new here, and i need help.

I'm creating a top down shooter, and my enemies always seem to find me. How do i get them to spot me, only when I'm near them?!

I've tried searching this forum, and I got some example files. They didn't help, 'cuz I'm running an older version of Construct. I tried installing the newer version, but my project didn't open up properly!!

As for the HUD, how do I get it to scroll along with my character?!

So, can someone please help me?!

Thanks!!
