Miles Per Hour. LOL I have no idea

MotherHoose

at Liner Velocity 100 you get pixels/second ±0.04

of course speed is relative to the type and duration of motion...

if you want to time movement...
4 real real gameAttributes: startTime; endTime; startX (or Y); endX (or Y)
and 2 Display Text ActorsZ: Text: expression endTime-startTime; endX-startX

and triggers on your actors to set those attributes...

thanks MotherHoose,

so I'm guessing the + or - .04 is why my looping moving platform is very gradually sneaking off screen?

cheers
