Keep it up :)

Try to fix minor to major bugs and you will finish soon :D.

Thanks for the encouragement, but it's over already ^^ I won't do anything more to it, it was just for fun. I learnt a lot though (especially about some very bizarre ways the engine picks things and strange timings using wait 0) which I can use on my main project :)

It's just simulate movement but with increased movement speed...

I don't see how that really works the same. You can't set the angle of movement, just simulate left/right, so you can't shoot down for example.

Currently the best I've got is with the bullet behaviour, which is equally as simple so I feel rightfully silly, just needed to add some deceleration after the boost period. Still there seems to be a few little issues, but generally it works as I wanted and I can tweak it easy enough from here.

Hey everyone,

I've recently become obsessed with making cut-and-paste modules (XP systems, inventories, etc. etc.) and now I'm trying to do one that allows 'boosting' in a platformer. By that I mean having the character dash for a certain amount of time in a direction, just like in the old Rocket Knight Adventures game.

I've tried messing around with gravity angles, but it doesn't work cleanly, as restarting proper gravity just makes the character drop quickly instead of a decelerating drop. I imagined it would have to do with vectors, but I don't really understand how they work - if I put the vectorY to a few hundred he'll go up slowly, a few thousand and he flies through the roof. However with vectorX no matter what value I use he just moves a little bit.

Here's my capx if you want a look, but there's basically nothing in it, I just tried and deleted a bunch of ideas.

Hey all, I was just kicking around some of my old C2 stuff and wanted to make my old experience system for C3 in a way that I could just copy and paste into new projects to save me stuffing around. So here it is for anyone who wants to use it!

Ah nope I didn't notice it before sorry, thanks!

Hey mate, I'm wondering if you could please share how you did this? I wanted to make some homing missiles that worked in a similar way :)

Hey all, I've got a bit of an issue. Sprites in my game get very noticeable lines around the edges and I'm really not sure why.

I've tried a lot of things like resizing, re-importing the images, etc. but it just seems to randomly occur. One sprite might be fine for a few days, then suddenly it has seams and a few days later they're gone again. They appear in the game editor and preview, but not in the sprite's image editor.

Examples:

Does anyone know what's causing it? I've built a rather extensive game engine over many months and I'd really like to get a game out of it while I'm stuck at home because of lockdown, but I don't want to start paying an artist until I can be sure this won't be an issue. Thanks in advance!

To convert from layer A to B:

X = CanvasToLayerX("B", LayerToCanvasX("A", x, y), LayerToCanvasY("A", x, y))

Y = CanvasToLayerY("B", LayerToCanvasX("A", x, y), LayerToCanvasY("A", x, y))

Thanks mate! Working well :)
