Hey Yann,

Yes, simple WSAD movement.

I already did the first part...angle now "follows" the change of X of a pixel, which is moved by the mouse. Just didnt find another solution yet.

<img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54216429/wsadmovement.png" border="0" />

But other problems keep occuring:

• the aiming stops when the mouse reached the borders of the screen.
• the aiming sometimes does not work anymore when moving the mouse outside the layout

any ideas welcome <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

works :)

many thanks!

Hey,

is there any way to divide a positive or negative value through a number, while always keeping the prefix?

Many thanks :)

Thanks, kittiewan.

Yes, it is a 1st person shooter with view from top.

Your solution does not help me solving this. I'll try to fit the left / right movement of the mouse directly to the angle. The problem is, how to capture the data of x-distance while moving the mouse.

hey sqiddster <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

sorry for my english.

if the player moves the mouse left, he should turn left. same to the right. both directly. u did never play an ego shooter? the view is 2d from up.

greets

Hey Yann,

the game is not that easy to describe in few sentences, but i'll try.

Imagine multiple "holdpoints" to collect, and through which multiple enemies are random auto-pathed until these points are destroyed after being collected. Also the enemies can be killed.

Both object types are preset to a route in a city layout (with solid objects etc). To not slowdown fps over the large map (with over 100 enemies+holdpoints+LOS+autopath movement), the limit of moving enemies is currently (the next) 4 along the route, and also they can also only move between (the next) 4 available holdpoints.

Hope this description helps to understand where it should go.

Sorry to kick the thread, but i've read all stuff about this on scirra, and did not find a solution...just more questions coming up straight.

which ID is selected by picking an object instance? UID, or IID? And is there a way to re-sort them during runtime?

The aim is simple, but c2 seems it can not handle it without additional (instance or global) vars, which makes the events extra complicated:

i got multiple instances of an object. if one of them destroys, the index of them should keep without "holes".

But UID is static; IID's does not seem to auto-reindex ...so whats IID for, and how to access an object about it?

Kyatric: Sorry, but picking instance 0 does not select the first instance of an object, once the first destroyed before.

So, any answers and ideas welcome <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

and finally, just dont use facebook..

*lol*

Hello again <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

does anyone of you have an idea, how to control the angle of a player directly with the left / right movement of the mouse? (like in ego-shooters)

I dont want the player just look towards the mouse position.

Thanks and best regards <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

The last one is clear now, thanks.

But is instance 0 always the first instance?

PS: Did you read the update of my post up?

Hello Friends <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

any way to do that?

Claim: to set the UID / IID of the first object instance up to the one, which was destroyed before.

Best regards

also i forgot to mention, that i need the condition "on any key down".

help appreciated
