Seriously what? I know a lot about platformer behaviour, but I don't understand what do you mean. Could you explain it more simple?

Change "Set Bullet Enabled" to "Set Bullet speed to 0"

Enabled makes Bullet behaviour working, nothing more.

I think you would have to do it with code, make sprites of light rays and then change their shape with actions, but the right conditions seam to be a tricky part.

This is my basic sidescroller setup.

X conditions with animation names like shotgun or attack1 don't allow player to walk jump etc. if he is attacking so the attacks are not canceled.

Istance variable mirrored checks which way player is facing so the bullets go the same direction.

you can create instance variable that changes fired projectiles

1 is gun

2 is bomb

3 is laser

4... etc.

then use instance variable condition to choose which numbers summons what.

after each attack object makes the instance variable is changed (you can use random(1,4) so it shoots randomly)

what happens to the objects on collision? is first one delated or do they stay next to each other?

try to add everytick to collision detection.

1)

condition oncreated

wait x time

set speed 0

wait y time

set speed 100 (example)

3)

condition oncreated

wait x time

create object

wait x time

create object

wait x time

create object

etc.

below that make another action with set angle, speed etc.

4) dunno what do you mean

I have no idea how to use your solution, but...

This is what I did:

global variables

Spawn - is spawning allowed? this waits untill there are no enemies left.

enemycount - checks how many enemies have been counted

cenemycurrent - checks how many enemies are alive

checknumber - checks if checking of enemy current is in progress, if it is it stops it from looping.

It works perfectly so far, enemies do not stack on each other.

you could pin it on every tick to custom image point that is on the certain width.

Create new image point and then create event with condition Everytick, then use Set position to another object and it should work.

make negative conditions so the animation is not stoped by other events.

Make event where if animation "Kick" is played the platformer max speed is 0 and when it ends it goes back to default speed.

Thank you, so simple and yet I could not find it (actually I used it once myself, but forgot about it, silly me)
