Hello there.

Been trying to figure this out on my own for days now but I just can't. So hope someone here can put me in the right direction.

This is my setup:

Globalvariable 'layoutsdone' = (counts how many layouts you have cleared, gets +1 everytime you leave a layout)

Now I have whenever the player leaves a layout he goes to Choose(layout1,layout2,layout3,layout4) But right now is goes like this:

In order: layout1, layout2, layout2, layout3. And multiple other ways I don't want it to go.

How I want it:

in order: Layout2, Layout1,Layout4,layout3. or Layout4, Layout1, Layout3, Layout4. Or any other way, I just don't want any duplicate Layouts in the same run.

However when all the layouts have been had, and there are no unique ones left. I just want it to restart.

I also said I count the amount of layouts cleared with the global variable 'Layoutsdone'.

When 'Layoutsdone' =10 or 20 or 30 or 40. I want it to go to Layout5. After layout 5 I just want it to continue where it left off.

I hope I made clear what I want to achieve and someone can help me out.

PS: I looked at this tutorial but don't know if it can be of any use. https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/315/ge ... duplicates

I found this plugin. plugin-pattern-gen_t75255 but also don't know if I can use it in my case.

Version 2 for sure, this looks like a solid fun game.

blekdar Thankyou!

— I'm aiming to release some kind of playable build the end of the month. Nothing special tho, just a few levels which should be able to complete within a few minutes.

CBX thankyou!, love the cavestory avatar

I've been working on a new Ogre/Cyclop enemy lately but he still needs to be animated, In the meantime I can show this off.

When you buy a powerup a description now pops up. The chest still needs some dust or effect coming out of it to make it feel more epic tho.

I have around 7 powerups in the game now, this is one of them:

I also made this, but the sword feel a little weird.

corlenbelspar Wow thanks a lot dude! I didn't even knew global objects existed. It works perfectly now, I just had to make the s_powerup a global object Let's see if I can optimize my game even more now I know this

Im not sure how to do that. Im trying something now, making variables for each powerup animation frame.

with three powerups avaiable it looks like this:

On collision with s_powerup ->

s_powerup animation frame = 1 -> add 1 to var.powerup_1

s_powerup animation frame = 2 -> add 1 to var.powerup_2

s_powerup animation frame = 3 -> add 1 to var.powerup_3

So nows the game knows how much of each powerups are collected, but I still don't know how I should make them to be displayed in the next layouts

Hey there,

I have a system where you can collect powerups, upon collecting these they will be displayed on the top right corner of the screen.

As shown here:

However, when I enter the next layout, all of these powerups are gone.. I gave them a persist behavior.

Here is a piece of the code:

As you can see, the position of the powerups is based on how many there are. So basically How do I make the game remember how many powerups there are, which animation frame each one has and the position there have.

Looks super cute!

DatapawWolf With all those bones in front of the spikes, you don't see the spikes that well. So I'll do that for sure, Thanks!

Aurel Thanks!, You're right, I actually replicate a lot of animations from other games, because I'm still working on my animation skills. I also try to keep the frames as low as possible, which is a bad thing. Just because I can't really animate yet.

Bl4ckSh33p Thankyou!

I created a new bat enemy, absolute hell, here's a preview:

And added a highscoreboard and some rocks for scenery:

Those lasers feel really good, looking forward to see what you come up with!

razorMonkey Thanks a lot! it works perfectly now.

You can use 'for each' for that. It's explained in this thread:

Hope it helps!
