Loop with interpolate

SingleSparq

How do you loop with interpolate without using spawn? Say I have an actor that goes across the screen. When it reaches the end I want it to start over again. I could have it destroy on contact at the end and re-spawn it but If the point is ti avoid spawning actors I'd rather loop it.

Simply check if x > scene_width
change attribute x to 0

Alternatively, you could check wrap x and wrap y in the scene attributes, and the objects will jump to the opposite side of the screen without you having to add any rules.

Hi, thanks - I shall check that out.

Note to GS Forum admin - does the Notify by email thing work? cause I've never gotten an email on subscribed topics like this.

The email thing worked for me on the joystick help thread.

However, anything I write in the London meet thread isn't acknowledged on the front page. For example, draper may have written something 4 hours ago, and this will be shown. If I post *after* him, it still shows 'draper, 4hours' instead of 'sheepy, just now!'.

i noticed the same thing with a thread i started in the announce your game section. Never showed the thread unless someone else replied. maybe an anti-bump effort

I got close using modulus (%): http://gamesalad.com/game/play/54665

if you want to skip back to the beginning without watching the movement, you would need to add rules.

that game is not using any wrapping...
