I know the type of game you are making can be done in C2, here is a an example of one. https://www.scirra.com/construct2/games/cosmochoria

I recommend starting with the topdown shoot game template that construct gives you, That is what I started with for me Zelda like game.

Yes you can, What I did was set up a sprite set it's angle towards my mouse X and Y. Then I used the "is between angles" of that sprite to find what angle my mouse is at on the screen.

Ok I figured out a way to do it, All i needed to do what make it where the player is being moved at the same speed and direction of the platform. So I used the move object at angel command. It works it just took a bit of tweaking to get the speed for the player right.

Korbaach I do really appreciate your help, but their is a glitch with just pinning the character to the platform, it makes it where if u move perpendicular to the movement of the platform it will move out from under you.

Thank you for the quick reply

not going to let the arrow keys affect player going to disable that

I am trying to do what you said but I am not having any luck, when I put it in it sets the player set X and y to the edge of the platform rather than to where he is currently on the platform. it also does not allow him to move if i set both the X and y. Is there any way you could show me a capx of it?

this is a link to the capx

I keep getting a error when trying to attach it or edit my post

I am making a top down game and I currently have a platform you can stand on and it will move you around when you are standing still.

I also have it where you can move when you are on it.

My problem is the player's movement is not affected by the platform so when you move up when the platform is moving right the player does not stay on the platform. Is their a better way to do this so the platform's movement affects the player?

I attached my capx to it

YES!!!!, you are Awesome!!! I was afraid it would be hard to do. For got about the pin behavior. Thanks a lot!

Making a moving block u can step on and it will move along with it, but u are able to still move while u are on it

I want to make a platform for my top down game that my player can stand/walk in and it will move him to different places. I want my player to be able to move while he is on the platform but i want him the also move with the platform. Any ideas?

I cant get that to work, if the object is solid it will not let me move the player passed it
