It's common for sprites to bleed when scaled if there is no buffer around the image. Make sure each character has 1 or 2 blank pixels around all four sides.

You apply the force but you don't enable Physics until after. Get rid of event 7, and enable Physics before the Apply.

Unfortunately I can't fix the aliasing - it's a Microsoft restriction with the framework I use. The best I can suggest is that you use version 1 (link in the original post) and you'll have to pull out the spacing data manually from the generated text file.

The issue is different. A precision difference was introduced. Making the DrawingCanvas use int sizes fixed the discrepancy.

Actually this was trivial to fix, so I've updated the template.

Confirmed. I'm the template author, and it seems this broke in 257. I'll have to build a test project to submit a bug to Scirra.

You need the trigger at the top level, so that's better, but it also looks like your main event is running constantly, which means the timer is constantly being reset, so never triggers. Add the extra check for whether the timer is not already running.

The item won't be picked on return from the function. You could pass back the UID of the new object and pick it before proceeding, or, as lionz suggests, pass in the other values to the function.

You can implement your own timer mechanism, but it's a bunch of work for no gain. You'll have plenty of run-ins with "For each" as you you keep going.

You can't cancel a Wait. Use a Timer instead, which you can stop.

EDIT: you also want to make sure event 2 only runs once. Right now it's running repeatedly for 1/2 a second, until the visibility changes.
