If you take the for each out of the sub event and just have it as a separate event

so it becomes something like

start of layout....(set up as before)

(separate event)

if variable1=0

for each array -- set variable1 to variable1+1

do you get the right answer ?

(not checked)

would

=atan(sprite.physics.velocityY / sprite.physics.velocityX)

work ?

(Not tested )

Edit:

Close - but no.

If I understand you

you have 20 (invisible?) sprites that you are going to use to spawn an enemy sprite from.

the enemy sprite should appear, pause for a few seconds and then disappear

if so look at

every x seconds

system : pick random instance "InvisibleSprite" -- "InvisibleSprite" spawn another object "EnemySprite"

give the enemy sprites the fade behaviour set to something like :

fade in 1 sec

pause 4 seconds

fade out 1 sec

fade to destroy

(and if that was a clear as mud....

Re. Title "Solved" - Never tried that but I guess if you go to the first post in this thread the subject /title is in a box at the top - try altering that ?

re "Thumbs up" - I don't think that is possible ? A "thank you" reply is always appreciated. (A few coppers in a charity box next time you pass one would not do any harm either... )

look at your parallax settings or each of your layers ...

Here is an example of using using physics angular velocity - maybe you could adapt it ?

look at the examples that come with C2 (Lighting.capx ). Might also look at https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/792/th ... ows-part-1 (possibly the best ever tutorial ever done ? <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink"> )

The already called/not called is the green highlight in the earlier screen capture/ event sheet picture.

The function new map should only be called once per "old" map - part of this function is now to check the score and create the skeleton if the score is over 5 (in this example)

I think it is because your invisible sprite is getting to its location and then constantly correcting - therefore that (the invisible sprite) is shaking which is causing the screen to shake (scroll to behaviour)

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/143636437/big%20scroll%20to%20test.capx

in your example you are saying (every tick)

if score > 5 then ....

in mine I am saying

is the map almost off screen ? Yes then

has the map already called for a new map to be made ? no then

Call for a new map (once) and while there check the score if the score is > 5 add the skeleton.

so it only calls for a new map if the old map is almost off the screen and the old map has not yet called for a new map. The call for a new map also checks the score and acts on the skeleton accordingly.

Make sense ?

and an example
