  Your overlapping check for sensor1 will only happen if sensor2 overlapping check was successful.

  You should add local variables s1 and s2 to fix this and to make the code easier to read:

  s1=0

  s2=0

  Pick sensor1-> if it's overlapping obstacles-> set s1=1

  Pick sensor2-> if it's overlapping obstacles-> set s2=1

  after that you can do all those different checks with s1 and s2

  By the way, if you add sensors and crawler to the same container, you'll not need their "parent" variable, sensors will be picked automatically for each crawler.

  beohs, Are you adding 1 or "1"?

  There is a type mismatch somewhere, either in one of the variables or the DB field. Make sure they are all integer/numeric.

  You can add (int) before the variable in php to convert string to integer: (int)$x

  Are you sure there are no problems with your animation?

  If you move "Set animation" event like this, will it play correctly when you press Q?

  

  Also check if you update the Main.Attack instance variable anywhere else in your event sheet.

  You need to add "Trigger once" condition.

  

  As it was pointed to you in the previous post, your "Attack" animation starts from the beginning again and again every tick. So it will always be stuck on frame 0 and will never end.

  Unless I misunderstood the question, I think it should not be much different from making a custom online leaderboard. But instead of high scores the DB will keep only one number - the hit counter.

  Here is the tutorial:

  Also see the AJAX section in the FAQ:

  So you currently have this:

  Planet1 On click -> SpaceShip -> Bullet -> set angle towards Planet1.X, Planet1.Y

  Change it to this:

  Planet1 On click -> SpaceShip -> Bullet -> set speed X 
                      SpaceShip -> Bullet -> set angle towards Planet1.X, Planet1.Y

  Hi,

  There are a few examples of map generation in the FAQ:

  Hey!

  Boolean attack returns!

  Do you still have something like this?

  Player is Attack -> Player set animation "Attack" (Play from beginning)

  If yes, try adding a second condition "Trigger once":

  Player is Attack

  System->Trigger once

  If this doesn't help, please share your capx or a screenshot of your code.

  This can be done fairly easy, but it depends on how you build you grid.

  Have you seen the FAQ? There are a few examples of grid movement:

  You can try changing the Orientation preference value to "sensorLandscape" or "sensor".

  But there is no guarantee that this will work.

  Actually "Between angles 0 and 45" will include 0-44.999999999

  This is likely to allow creating several consecutive conditions:

  If Between angles 0 and 45 -> do something

  If Between angles 45 and 90 -> do something else

  So I think this is not a bug, but rather a poorly documented feature.

  —, I personally think that all "between" conditions should always include both bounds.

  For example, in all SQL dialects (MS SQL, MYSQL, PL/SQL) the BETWEEN operator is inclusive.
