  • Okay, I have two sprites, which create a path in between them. This path is called "line 1" The character will find a path just fine, to the two dots... but it will not find a path to "line" I am thinking because there are spo many "line 1's" on the layout, so the character doesn't know which one to go to. I need a way to have each line created have a different name, I think... if that makes sense..

  • Oh yes, i follow what you are saying absolutely...but code has a good way of not doing good, even if it sounds right, haha but i will definitely try that! Stay tuned for an update. I have tried using the "line" point, but maybe if i give the line the instance variable, I will try that. Perhaps a global variable would work just as well? hmm...

  • Well, I am using the canvas plug-in. I am able to draw the lines on the screen. Every tick the system creats an object which is my "line" object, from dot 1 to dot 2. I have fixed it now where on left button released, the character will find a path to mouse.x mouse.y. The character gets there fine, but it doesn't follow the exact path. I am thinking it needs to be that the character finds the first "line" object created, follows it, as it hits that object, it destroys it, and the character looks for the next line, and so on, until it reaches the end. I...hope this is making sense.

    In a nutshell... the character has to follow the points, and i do have those points on the screen, because they are drawn... but the character does not follow them, he makes his own path to find the end.

  • I have uploaded the capx file. When you play it in the browser, I have the ability to drawy on the screen with the mouse. I have tried to use the path following behavior, with a "wait" condition, but that didn't seem to work. I am thinking itr is because I am using the canvas plug in, but I dont know why other behaviors wouldn't work on a canvas?

    Thanks for your time

  • Hello,

    Using the canvas plug in I have created an event that allows me to draw a line with the mouse, however I am still having trouble getting the character to follow that path after I have drawn it. I have watched several tutorials and have not gotten the desired effect. I was wondering if there is a way. I am sure it is with path following, but I havent been able to get that to work either.

    Thank you

  • Hello,

    I have used the canvas plug-in to create a drawing effect. I would like the character to be able to follow the drawn path once it is finished being drawn. I have tried path-finding tutotrials, but not much seems to work.

    Thank you for your time
