I use them so the animation only play's once is the another way?

"Wait for previous action" is for asynchronous actions. You don't have any asynchronous actions, so don't use it.

Mask sprites should be on Mask layer. Scratch sprite should have Destination Out blend mode.

You don't need "For each key" if you know the key name. Basically, you can remove events 57-59, except for "set x to n" action.

If the key name is in the frame vairable, to subtract from this key simply use this action:

Dictionary set frame to value (self.get(frame)-x)

If you want it to not drop below zero:

Dictionary set frame to value max((self.get(frame)-x), 0)

You can use any movement behavior or move the text with events.

Here is a looping version:

Scrolling text? You can simply give it Bullet or MoveTo behavior.

The second event doesn't make sense. It's running on every tick, constantly restarting the timer (so the timer will never trigger), and it's calling the spawn function on every tick!

I still don't understand how and when the molecules should spawn in your game, but here is how the timer is supposed to be used:

I think it may have to do with the fact that the Background sprite is the one with the timer and the instance variable of Pause, and I'm calling on booleans from other sprites to Pause, like so

It doesn't matter where the Pause variable is, as long as you're correctly checking it and stop the function from running when Pause=true.

Please post screenshots of your code.

It's difficult to understand what's going on. Ho many "Load" actions do you have in the project? Make sure the first event sheet (used in that empty layout) is not included into other event sheets.

I suggest adding browser logging to all related events - before calling Save/Load, into "On Save completed" and "On Save completed".

Then run the game, open browser console and check the messages.

Also, the vector can't be higher than the player max speed. If you want a fast and powerful knockback, you might need to temporarily increase the platform max speed.

You can limit scrolling to layout with events:

+ System: Every tick
-> System: Set scroll X to clamp(ScrollX, 0+ViewportWidth("layer")÷2, LayoutWidth-ViewportWidth("layer")÷2)
-> System: Set scroll Y to clamp(ScrollY, 0+ViewportHeight("layer")÷2, LayoutHeight-ViewportHeight("layer")÷2)

Where "layer" is a layer with 100% parallax.
