Hello All, I am making this cannon shooting game. I have this "pause" problem. When I click on the pause button, the cannon still shoots out the ball. How can I stop the cannon ball from shooting when I click on the "pause button.

I have tried Xarmian's advise, but the click area is only at the top left corner of the pause button. I want a bigger area for the pause button (size: 31 x 49 pixels) and the position of the pause button is X: 60 and Y: 299

Please help me

    Try having an game.Shoot boolean attribute.

    when it = true, shoot , when game.shoot = false stop shooting.

    When pause button is pressed. Change attribute game.shoot to false
    also Pause Game.

    It also happend to me once and this was what I did.

    Hi, how do you change the game.Shoot boolean attribute to either true or false?

    Behavior Change Attribue

    select game.shoot and in the "to" field you simply write true or false

    How do I do the stop shooting part?

    You have to say on the cannon that it will only shoot when game.shoot = true. So when you press pause change this attribute to false:)

    If this does not help, you can mail me the file. I will help you for free:)

    Do I put the change attribute inside a rule like if mouse button is down, change attribute game.shoot to true then I put my fire behavior below it?

    It doesn't work. Just to confirm, in the pause button there is a rule, when touch is pressed change attribute game.shoot to false and in the cannon there is a rule, when mouse button is down change attribute game.shoot to true and the cannon fire behavior below it, right?
