jajajajajjajajajajaj sorry bro!!! never mind!!!! okay....maybe this next question is little harder....emm.....
Constraint Behavior Self.Position.Y to 95.4201*cos(self.time*25)+338.1467 , the same code but for Y-axis. 1) I want when the hero actor is close to the platform (up and down) activate it and move down, so the hero can walk on top of it, then after certain distance it move back to his original position (the platform), how can i do it????? When it reach to 338.1467, how can i stop the platform their for let say 5 second ???
I dont get what the problem is, i also emailed you the answer before. You just posted the same code but for y axis. That is for y axis, your constraing the self position y
Also why not just interpolate it down when the hero is in range, then interpolate it up after 5 seconds?
Or avoid constrains, download the free toolbox demo here from P-O-M, it has a section in it from me on how to do a jump/double jump and has notes explaining what is going on in the rules. There are also lots of other little bits in there that you will find very useful as well;
John , i have a actor that i can control to move left or right(hero), also i have a Platform actor that move up and down (Y axis), but how can i do the hero actor when he is close (distance) to the Platform actor, it move down so the hero can walk or jump on top of it???????
Prob: 1) how can i do that when the hero actor close to the platform it will move down? (i tried the tshirtbooth tutorial using Magnitude) it didn't work because the magnitude use X and Y, i just need the x 2) if the prob #1 is accomplished, how can i set the platform to move up again to his original position after the hero actor move away certain distance ????
for example: when the hero actor is close more than 200 pixel the platform actor move down so the hero actor can walk on top of it
Use left and right arrow keys on your keyboard to move left and right, when Mr G passes the red line the platform will descend. If he sits on the platform for 2 seconds it will go up.
1) The number 640 in the interpolate inside the hero is the distance between the hero actor and the platform?? 2) The number 250 inside the platform ??

There is no interpolate inside the hero.
If you are struggling to understand what the 250 value is doing in the platform actor, then I think you need to sit down and learn some of the GameSalad basics!
Check out tshirtbooth's videos, they cover all the basics and are really well made easy to follow.
I won't be answering any more questions as I cant see there being an end to this !
Best of luck with the game, like I say check out tshirtbooth's videos, they're really good, watch them all and you will be able to do all this very basic stuff after even just a day or two !
When you asked: "Tyran the code that you gave me , that it work with Y axis?" did you first try and use it on the Y axis ? Or did you think it's better get someone else to answer some more questions for you before you bothered to even try ?
Like I say, can someone please tell me if I can type out a word in capital letters - as I can't be bothered to try for myself )
Also, if someone is going to take the time to help you out - then not bothering to thank them is one thing - but never even getting their name right is another ! LOL ! ) )
Anyhow good luck, no hard feelings, I enjoyed answering your questions, but life is short, go learn some GameSalad, it's fun !
1) I got a jump button, I want when double touch the character stick on the roof and keep walking or jump?
2) also, another one with jump button, when double touch it , through a string that attach something? So the hero actor can make a swing to another side instead of jumping to another side

I don't know how you would do that unless I sat down for a while and worked it all out ! Sorry.

Same answer, there is no easy solution, it might take you a few days to work that one out alone, start somewhere and when you have a specific question then ask. Also take a look at Tshirtbooth's videos, there is lots of useful ideas in them that might help you.
i said i will try and find something near what i want, but there's no guarantee =-(
I see, I misunderstood your post - I understand now !
No there is no guarantee he will have exactly what you want . . .
You don't need to find a video that tells you how to make something jump in the air and then run - you only need a video that shows you how to use accelerate - you don't need a video that tells you how to make an actor explode when he hits the ground - you only need a video that shows you how to change images and how collisions work . . . . etc etc
What you are trying to do is not impossible or even very difficult, it just might take some time at first .
Videos ! Watch them all ! Keep GameSalad open when you are watching them.
Btw how do u know so much about programming?
I know nothing about programming, everything I have told you is the kind of stuff you can learn from the videos in a few days + some practice + some common sense.
If I put my 'expertise' up against tshirtbooth/mynameisace/JohnPapiomitis . . . etc etc . . . . I would look like an idiot ! (seriously!)

It's the one after that which I am worried about ! 8-X
Good luck with your game.

I already watched all the video but still ... I'm nothing compare to u
hi there! i have a timer, and the code i used is this:
Display Text
-floor((floor(game.mytimer%3600)/60%10))..":"..floor((game.mytimer%60)/10)..floor(game.mytimer%10)
Change Att
-game.startime to game.time
Rule
-att game.mytime >0
-constrain att
-game.mytimer to 120-(game.time-game.starttime)
Rule
-att game.mytime =0
- Timer
-after 2 seconds run to completion
- pause game
how can i set the timer to start , when i touch the start button to start to play?????
