Yeah, as Kyat said, it's not really a game development suite - more a game that permits users to create their own limited experiences.

There have actually been a few threads about projectile tracking in the past, try using the search tool.

If someone gets it organized I'm totally game. Nothing like some good self-parody to make the day go by ;)

Just confirming that it still happens to me also.

I think what Mipey is trying to say is that on the mobile platforms, customers are obsessed with graphical polish. While this game has some good aesthetics, the professional level of graphical polish isn't there at the moment, and that may hurt sales on these very difficult platforms.

YES. Even C2's simple shaders perform sluggishly at high resolutions.

I'm not Scirra, but based on their previous responses the answer is 'not in the near future'.

There's a couple of tutorials that summarize performance aspects pretty well.

BTW, you say that you upload to the internet every time. Have you heard about preview over LAN?

Here's how I would do it.

Repeat 10 Times:

Gun: Spawn bullet

Bullet: Rotate random(-15,15) degrees clockwise

Bullet: Move forward random(0,15) pixels.

Obviously you'd play with those values to get a shotgun with the spread, number of bullets, etc you'd want. I added the last action so that the bullets look a little more random while they are flying.

Hmm, I'd be cautious about 'solid only on layer' as people usually have their layers already set up.

I reckon a way to go about it would be to add 1 more action to the 'Solid' behavior - 'Add exception' and 'Remove exception'. Any object or family in this list wouldn't collide with the solid.

Paradox when I mean multiple object types, I mean multiple sprites, not instances. I guess what I wrote sounds a bit confusing. I'll edit it for clarity.
