Constant Flipping

zefrof

What would be the best ways to make an actor flip 180 degrees every few seconds? Thanks for any help!

1) Inside actors window in Gamesalad make a copy of the actor you want flipped.

2) Staying in the actors window double click on the copy of the actor and under 'Graphics' click on 'Flip Horizontally'
now you have two actors, a normal one and a flipped one.

3) Drag them both into your game layout - making sure they are both in the exact same position.

4) Then stick this rule on the actor that is on the top.



Here is an example file:

@zefrof … if your image is not based on a symmetrical area:

an actorAttribute … real type … name… myTime

Rule: when
Attribute: self.Time = myTime+2   (whatever timing you want … even 1.5444999)
--Rule: when (nested)
--Attribute: self.Graphics.Flip Horizontally is false
---changeAttribute: self.Graphics.Flip Horizontally To: true
---changeAttribute: self.myTime To: self.Time
--Otherwise:
---changeAttribute: self.Graphics.Flip Horizontally To: false
---changeAttribute: self.myTime To: self.Time
