Hi,

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

Also you might find something useful in the tutorials section:

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.

Try this plugin for getting system date and time:

Try creating "System->Is between values" event in C2.

You'll see that it's inclusive of lower an upper bounds:

lowbound <= num <=highbound

I'm a bit late to the party, but I agree with Bruno and others.

OP's attitude is terrible and the project is a complete mess. You can tell by simply looking at the file he posted - project is buried inside multiple sub-folders (\VARIABE_CLEANING\_NEWONE_USETHIS\windows splice in - Copy (10)) and includes a 4.5Mb backup file!

And instead of creating a small capx to demonstrate the problem, he demanded Ashley to look for a potential bug in that pile of garbage?!

Not sure how Pin+ can help with setting the right angle.

You can define another image point in your animation frames for weapon direction.

See this picture:

Red image point is where you position the gun.

Blue image point is for setting the angle of the gun.

Create a Trail sprite with the same picture as your main character. Add Fade behavior with about 0.2s fade out time and set "Destroy after fade out=Yes" .

When your main character sprite is flying, spawn that Trail sprite approximately every 0.05 seconds at character position, set random angle.

Thanks for the advice, I just found an easy solution.

I can get "squished" position of each image point using this formula:

squishedX = Sprite.x + (Sprite.ImagePointX(1)-Sprite.x)*squishFactor

squishedY = Sprite.ImagePointY(1)

It always helps to try to explain the problem to someone
