Are yo able to hide the effects now in the editor. The Layout swirl effect example seems to do this but I Can't work out how?

Whoops I see this is actually the construct classic forum I am trying to work this out for construct 2. Sorry

Nice game and great pitch (very funny), will definitely be donating. Looking forward to the film.

You can get construct to change the width of a red (or any color you like) square sprite to match the players health.

I.E an event that every tick "set width to players.health"

Have a look at the space blaster game demo that's where I got the info from.

Hope this helps.

Also check your isp's junk mail filter. Mine had grabbed my email.

Awesome thanks for your fast reply harrio I really appreciate it. <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Hi, I am making a little 2d space game with construct 2 and I am having some trouble with movement.

I have it setup custom movement so when the player holds down the up arrow the ship will accelerate at the ship angle, same with the down arrow but at a negative acceleration. I also have a event that will stop the ship going too fast.

The problem I am having is that I want the ship to slow down to 0 when no arrow keys are pressed (not just stop) but I can't work out how to do it. I tried making an event that when the up arrow key was released and the speed is greater than 0 to set acceleration at -100 but it doesn't seem to work.

If anyone could give me some advice on how to accomplish this that would be great.

Sorry I know this is a really basic question but I just can't work it out I am very new to construct.
