  Surface Pro for pen support if you plan on working on art with it. But if you have a Wacom already, any Windows tablet will do.

  (There are some visual glitches with high DPI display on my Surface Pro 3 though)

  You probably want some instance variables on your player to keep track of what guns they have. Then add a condition, only allow switching to that weapon if the weapon is acquired.

  If you add the effect to the layer, it will apply to objects on THAT layer.

  So if you want to distort layer 0 elements, add the effect to layer 0.

  You'll need to set up "states". You can set a variable to define if player is touching wall by using collision with wall (optionally adding a timer to reset the variable, giving a limited window of time to jump). You can then use that state as a condition for your wall jump action. To differentiate between sides, either use invisible helper sprites or image points.

  Have you tried it? Bandwidth is generally more of a concern as you add number of players as the amount of data sent is exponential per peer. 1v1 you should have a pretty large amount of room to work with.

  Reference: https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/73/sup ... reen-sizes

  Unless you are talking about device orientation for portrait/landscape modes, a simple comparison of which of window height and width is larger on a trigger once event should serve nicely.

  Power of two generally doesn't have anything to do with rendering/processing performace, but how much video memory it takes up when loaded, as well as for overall project download size because of spritesheeting.

  I'm no expert though, and I can't seem to find the documentation I recall reading about this previously. Maybe it was a forum post. Someone else may be answer with more detail, but the general advice will be don't worry about it, and you should avoid large images as much as possible and use tiled backgrounds instead to manage video memory efficiently.

  Trigger once must be the last condition in the event, as documented in the manual and in the tooltip when you chose it as a condition.

  You want the viewport expressions.

  [quote:29zn3ugk]ViewportBottom(layer)

  ViewportLeft(layer)

  ViewportRight(layer)

  ViewportTop(layer)

  Return the viewport boundaries in layout co-ordinates of a given layer. Not all layers have the same viewport if they are parallaxed, scaled or rotated separately.
