gfigueroa and mepis - I have the spawns set at different Every X times. It starts off slow with just one and then with the one another and then another so the longer you stay alive the more things are coming at you. Yes, I am leaving the page on any hit of my hero or if he is pushed off the layout the game ends and takes you to option page to start again or go to the intro page.

If I take a while getting back to the game as soon as I hit the start game button I get all the spawns at once because the Every X is still ticking even if I'm not playing the game.

In order to keep the gradual flow for easy in the beginning to harder the longer you play the Every X needs to start from 1 each the game is started. It's not doing that for me, once the game is started if it gets to 300 seconds when the harder enemies would appear after the first game if you want to play again you immediately start getting the harder spawns and many of them right away instead of starting slow and it getting harder.

I did go back and group everything and tried the deactivate group but that did not work. I tried the the Pause Plugin and while it worked pausing it does not reset the Every X count.

The set time scale to "0" works fine but it's not resetting the Every X count.

I've tried everything I just want when the game ends to stop the spawn count and when the game start and I mean actual game play for it to reset the spawn count so it starts from 1 second not at whatever time the game has been running, but actual game play time.

Thanks

Thanks, I will give it a shot... I know web design, and I know Android App Design so this should not be difficult to comprehend... No short cuts I need to put the work in.

Thank you

It really helped me get to the next step in my game making.

I Love Spriter...

Thanks

Yes I thought about that but realized you can't go back and regroup things (Unless I missed it) so that was going to be my last resort but if you say it works I'll put in the work no problem.

I just need the Every X to not only stop spawning when off the page but stop counting and reset each time you start the game. I have more difficult spawns that start after a minute and then two minutes, then three minutes and so on.

So when it's not stopping the count if you're on the your 3rd attempt 3 minutes later you get hit with the harder spawns right away and I don't want that.

So will this be the fix for that?

Thank you

gfigueroa and mepis, I think you both are correct and both your solution work. However I just realized I'm asking for the wrong thing.

What I need is for the Every X to STOP and RESET each time the game ends or you leave the page. It probably is pausing and then picking back up at it's highest count and that's not what I want.

What I need is for anytime the game ends or you leave the page I want the Every X to stop counting and them when you return to the page it starts counting when you click the start game button, but from 1 or zero which ever.

My game starts out easy and progressively gets harder the longer you play it so I need it to reset every time you start...

Thanks in advance for your help...

YES!!!!! <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> That's exactly what I'm trying to do. I have your Pause plugin installed (Thank you for that) I just need to set it. Is there a guide or tutorial you have here already?

Thanks for your patience everyone.

gfigueroa, Yes I did see your link but that was (to my understanding) a pause button. I need something that when the game ends/resets the Spawn clock (Every X) starts from 1 so I don't have a thousand spawns if I'm reading the intro screen.

Thanks

Ok I will try that thank you....

I'm still learning and I'm sure it's something I'm doing wrong. I think I'm just going to start from scratch and make sure I organize and implement things a little better.

I did see the Every X seconds options but not after I set the IsPause.

I'm confused I'm sure.

Thanks

mepis

I think I have it set up according to what you said to do but I do not understand this part...

Add the extra condition, if IsPaused = 0 AND Every X Seconds

I understand it I don't know how to implement it. I don't see this option anywhere.

Thanks

Thank you... I will give this a shot, as long as I have a good direction I can figure it. I'll let you all know thanks for the help.

I kinda fixed that problem and from reading all your suggestions I'll have to work on how I implement things. However, now my new problem which I think is part of the original question is the every random Secs.

Even when everything is paused (or so I think) the random Secs keep counting. So even when I'm on the intro page everything is still spawning (Not moving but spawning) so when I click the play game i'm over run with spawns.

So if I leave it on the intro page for a while I have more spawns then I can handle.

BTW, the Pause Plugin did not work or I couldn't make it work.

Thanks in advance as I am still learning an probably could havelaid everything out much better.

Thanks again
