Character choice on scene

FallacyStudios

Hello,
I'm new to trying out GameSalad and I was wondering. Are you able to make it so that if you select a certain character that character is the one that spawns in on each scene so that I don't have to create a scene for every single option.

It's totally do-able in the same scene. I would create some kind "Change Attribute" behavior on your character select screen so if your first character is chosen you'd change an integer attribute (let's call it "Character Select") to 1. If the second character is picked, change "Character Select" to 2.

And then in your actual gameplay scene just put rules in your main character that change the animations / images based on what that attribute is.

Not sure how new you are to GameSalad. Hope that all makes sense

Thank you both of you. That is very helpful. I'm not new to programming, just new to GameSalad. I hope since I know how to program that getting the hang of this wont take to long.

I'm not sure if either of you or someone else will come here. But is it possible to do player versus player online through GameSalad?

You're welcome!

As far as player vs player, hopefully someday but I don't believe it's an option at the moment

Ya that would definitely make a great addition to this. GameSalad seems pretty awesome as it is now, but I could really use pvp for one of my game ideas.

Oh by the way. Are you still able to charge for your app using gamesalad? I mean it uploads it to the profile you create in your dev account so if you set a price there it should work correct?
