  • Hi,

    I'm currently using the "touch gesture" option on my event sheets as the game I'm working on only uses left clicks. When I add "On left mouse click OR tap gesture" to get the player sprite to shoot, it fires double the number of bullets. Using "On object tapped" seems to fix this, but makes the game more awkward to control. Is there another option?

  • Hi dop2000,

    I've tried changes a few things and it's working slightly better than before but still has issues. The music toggles okay and "Off" animation now plays when the icon is tapped, but I can't get the "On" animation to play.

    [EDIT] Please disregard this post, the issue's now fixed.

  • Hi,

    I'm currently working on my game's menu screen and have an icon that toggles the sound on/off when clicked/tapped. It works fine when static but when I try to add a short on/off animation it plays in an endless loop, even though "Loop" isn't checked on the animation properties. How can I get it to play once, then stop?

  • Many thanks AllanR, using Set Flipped worked. :)

  • I couldn't find an exact entry for enemy angle in the event sheet but the enemies have Bullet behaviour so it sounds right. Is there a way to fix the 180 degree rotation? I tried disabling "set angle" but then the enemies don't come anywhere near the player.

  • Hi,

    I'm working on a simple shooting game where enemies spawn randomly from off screen spawn points. Enemies spawning from the left and centre of the screen look normal but anything spawning from the right appears upside-down, like in the screen shot:

    All the sprites were loaded facing the right. Is there a way to fix this?

  • This worked, thank you so much! :)

  • So I mean add a condition, which appear on the left (press C), to the on collision event. The condition should be critter opacity=100. This means when the bullet collides that the critter object opacity must be 100 for it to do the actions i.e. it is not fading. So you can only hit it one time with that condition.

    Sorry for misunderstanding, I'm still new to this and often get the terms mixed up. I've tried adding another condition but can't find the "set opacity" option. The closest I can find is "compare opacity".

  • Here it is. I tried disabling the Fade effect as well but the issue's still there.

  • Hi plinkie, I've added the opacity condition but I'm still able to gain points from repeatedly shooting an enemy before it disappears.

  • Hi,

    I'm making a simple shooting game and have set things so that one point is added to the score every time a bullet makes contact with an enemy. I've found if I continue to shoot at the enemy while it's playing its "vanishing" animation (even though this lasts for less than a second), points are still added to the score. Is there a way to stop this from happening? Link to the (incomplete) game is below:

  • Hi plinkie,

    Many thanks, unchecking Global fixed it. :)

    Is there a way to mark questions as "answered" on these forums?
