  • There is slightly less pink in dark mode lol

    For me the test ads don't even work unless I'm using Google's ad unit ID. Is that supposed to happen? I already have the "Test Mode" setting checked.

    Not really sure what you're saying here...

  • Like this you can see how it picks out the one you are dropping.

  • This is where you use Families. Add all the objects into one Family and say mouse over Family, set variable to Family.objectypename.

  • Yes you need to press the padlock on the layers bar to lock the layer then it can't be selected, this is a common feature like with art software.

  • Yes if you put it on a different layer you can 'lock' the layer so it won't be selected

  • Now that you split out the directions you add an extra condition, so for press right key you add the condition 'can move in direction' right and 10 pixel. So it will only reduce the steps if you can move and a wall is not blocking you.

  • When you use on drop condition it narrows the picked instances to 1. So when you then say sprite overlapping sprite it is checking if its overlapping itself not the instances that you think are involved in the overlap. This is why your current logic isn't working.

    There are a few ways you can fix that, some people use a Family, so when you say Sprite on dropped, is overlapping Family, you can easily pick between the one being dropped which is the Sprite and the one overlapping which is the Family (the Family just contains the same Sprite object).

    There is also a system condition you can use called 'Pick nth instance' you can use this to pick the 0 and 1 instance in the overlap, however you cannot use this immediately after the on drop condition for reasons mentioned above.

    Also you could identify the one being dropped in some way by setting a variable. If you open up the instances to be picked again then this could work. For example on drop - run a function that inside has sprite overlapping sprite condition, then with a sub event pick the sprite where the variable is set and then you can use actions on it.

  • It should do this by default so did you move the origin point from the centre of the object?

  • You'll need specific events if it's the same object, I don't expect it to be related to collision. Did you try it with that object and a different object?

  • Should be something simple like player overlaps blue tile, set double jump disabled. Are you saying the yellow one worked and blue didn't?
