Hi. I'm a 7th grade student working on a science fair project and this is the first time im using this program.
I was working with scirra construct on windows, but this is way more awesome! In my game, I have kind of an overhead view, and what i want is that every couple of seconds is for an object to appear, cause im trying to make a collection game, you know, get something, get the next, play till you die. I need the objects to randomly appear and i cant figure it out! Please help!

In its rules, add a timer. Set it to every random(2,6) (two and six are the min and max possible amounts of time between spawnings)
In the timer add spawn actor at position X random(0, put in your screen size X) and position Y random(0, put in your screen size Y)
That should work.
I'm glad to hear you're enjoying using Gamesalad. It's a great tool, and a cool idea to use for a science fair project.
Make sure you mention Gamesalad.com in your presentation. It would help with their business.
If you enjoy doing this, you should make games with it for the app store and Gamesalad.com.
I hope your game works out well.
