I wasn't expecting such a quick reply! Thanks! I'll be sure to remember that

Hey, I apologize if I posted this topic in the wrong place or if this question is too obvious.

I've always wondered why retro games' graphics are sized based on powers of 2. Why should I keep that in mind when creating sprites for my game? And to what should I apply that rule? Characters, BG, everything?

Hey,

The plan was to make it so, every time I clicked, the Sprite2 moved in a parabola to targets x and y. I'm sure I overcomplicated things with all these instance variables (I'd appreciate if someone told me an easier way), but it kind of worked in the end. The Sprite2 does move in a parabola once I click, but it keeps going down past the target location.

Seems like it's because the every tick action doesn't stop once the mv_pgs (movement progress) gets to 1, as when I displayed the variable, it kept increasing. Thus, how would I fix that?

Thank you really much for any help given.

Nice. Even got to learn about lerp() and cubic() as well. Thank you for the quick reply!

Hey, how's everybody doing?

I'm making a top-down game and I've got this frog which is supposed to, every 5s, choose a random location in a radius of 8 pixels around him and somehow make a single leaping movement towards that location. However I can't figure out how to do it. I'd really appreciate some help.

Thanks in advance for any advice

You could use the Lenghtdir() function, which returns the position of a point in a radius of x pixels around another point in an y angle.

To tweak the rotating speed, simply increase or decrease the rotation_angle change every tick.

I've just recently started messing around with Construct 2 and the wide range of tools available for us to use for sprite movement has been confusing me a little.

However I can't figure out how to do it. I'd really appreciate some help. (Also, you may notice I set the Lengthdir function but didn't use it. That's because I couldn't figure out how to call a function while setting the value of an action. If it isn't too much, an answer for that would really save me)
