There is probably an easier way to do this, but this also seems to work:

gabmusic Did you read the entire post? There are more examples, showing different methods of making complex shapes with tilemap.

This can be done much-much easier, in literally two events. Put all your store sprites into a family, add Pin behavior to it, pin family to a panel with Drag And Drop behavior and that's it!

Here is an example (with added inertia scrolling):

Have you seen this post?

There are cool examples by R0J0hound which you may be able to modify for your needs.

MGGD If you are not using many other form control objects, I recommend making your own slider bar with two sprites and drag and drop behavior. It's easier than trying to style it with CSS. Besides, SliderBar is a DOM element, and there are lots of issues with them in Construct - they don't scroll well, mess up mouse and touch events etc.

You can try Bullet behavior for the projectile, with gravity and bounce off solids. Or apply Physics behavior to the tilemap, set it immovable, but I don't know how well will it work. You can also try Chipmunk:

Well, in this case you can save the state of each item in a set of global variables or in a dictionary. When player picks up an item, set variable (for example, change Item5Unlocked from 0 to 1), or add a key to the dictionary.

The Inventory layout should have its own event sheet. Add all item sprites to it and set them invisible. On Start of layout check each variable (or dictionary key) and set the corresponding item sprite visible. For example, if Item5Unlocked=1, set Item5Sprite visible.

It depends on how you are using Physics, but generally it's not recommended to mix Physics with other behaviors. Especially when it comes to moving Physics objects - you should only do this with Physics actions, like apply force/impulse/velocity.

I don't really understand what are you trying to achieve. You can use Touch.SpeedAt and Touch.AngleAt expressions to recognize swipe gestures.

It would help if you could share your capx.

That's not a good way to make an inventory. Usually you save player's inventory items in a dictionary or array, and then build the inventory screen (which may be on a different layout or layer) from that dictionary/array.

I suggest you search this forum and tutorials for examples of inventory implementation. Here are a few links:

Say, layer "Game" has 100% parallax, and layer "HUD" 0% parallax.

Spawn explosion on layer "Game" at (500,200)

explosion Set X to CanvasToLayerX("HUD", LayerToCanvasX("Game", explosion.x, explosion.y), LayerToCanvasY("Game", explosion.x, explosion.y))

explosion Set Y to CanvasToLayerY("HUD", LayerToCanvasX("Game", explosion.x, explosion.y), LayerToCanvasY("Game", explosion.x, explosion.y))


Move explosion to layer "HUD"
