Hi Guys!

Urgent help needed... I have created an 'Ikari Warriors' type game which worked fine but then I tried to add dual thumbstick controls. I had difficulty copying the code over properly so decided to use the template as a base and add my sprites and background.

However, now controls fall off the screen when scrolling..

please help!

    Add them in a non-scrollable layer.

    In your Scene Editor, select the Scene button at the top left of the window, there will be a layers tab that you use to rearrange your actors.

    beautiful... I thought I tried that... can't wait for you to see it!

    Is there a size limit as mines already 20mb?

    Only Limit is 10mb for 3g download

    For the consumer, anything larger you need to wait until you can be near wifi for download

    does it get shrunken by Game Salad when they prep it for Xcode?

    I hear it usually shrinks a little after "prep" (this is from another thread).

    Have you optimized your PNG files (run a PNG optimizer on them with an online optimizer or sometimes in the settings/preference or a "Save As" option in a graphics/paint/photo program) and/or your sound/music files (i.e. reduce rate, trim/shorten silence, etc.)?

    There is either a wiki entry or more likely a forum topic on optimizing sound/music files. It has some entries in it from the GS folks.

    Edit - Found the audio info:
