if you have flash effect i have made a rather simple off on switch for invincibility

put all the monsters in a group

or put your collisions with the monsters in a group.

when your character is flashing turn off the group that causes you to take damage.

If character is flashing -->> Turn off group Monster is hitting me

and

Character on Flash end -->> Turn on group Monster is hitting me

basically as long as your flashing you cannot take damage or get hit!

give it a try

Hello all, i found it very difficult to figure out how to stop a sound from looping when it starts to play and i feel completely retarded for not figuring out this simple problem.

the way i have it set up atm is

When AXE is created ->> Play "AXE WOOSH" on loop at -10DBS

When AXE is destroyed ->> STOP "AXE WOOSH"

or

When AXE is destroyed ->> MUTE "AXE WOOSH"

When AXE is destroyed ->> MUTE "AXE WOOSH.ogg"

When AXE is destroyed ->> MUTE "AXE WOOSH.m4a"

etc

and this does not seem to work at all...

oh right, i had no idea this thing existed, its basically what im looking for as well. thanks for the help!

Hello everyone!

im trying to create a similar light effect like that of the very first silent hill game, where the character has a flash light that is always illuminating a set area while he moves around etc, however i also want to figure out how to have stationary light points fire and wall mounted lights etc.

any idea's?

Thanks for reading!

actually what i just mentioned seems to have worked!

thanks alot for the help!

woah hold on, the trigger once command? i never knew that even existed!

so how would that work?

player on collision with monster

   =>system trigger once = subtract 1 hp

??

also working on a capx give me a sec

Hi all!

I have a problem where if the player collides with an object that has multiples of themselves causes accumulated damage.

the way i have hp and damage dealt is a simple

if A collides with B than subtract the variable of the players hp by 1

somehow it ends up with 5 when 5 of the same monsters are in a layout even though ive only collided with just one of the monsters

Ah! that explains it,

it works like a charm now even with different levels, another problem i had was the character also had the scroll to feature i didn't realize that the camera would automatically lock on even without the event sheet mentioning it... at least that's what i think anyways. regardless, it works!

I think now is a good time to read up the link.

That is absolutely brilliant, Thank you both for the help!

hmm... i dont think i did it the way its meant to be...

do you think you can check it out and see what i did wrong compared to your example?
