making a character immovable?

allc1865

Hey guys,

I need help making my enemy character immovable because (1) when the player actor collides with them they go sailing off somewhere else, and (2) the enemies will move by themselves without me even colliding with them.
I've tried turning my density way up, but that just ends up crashing my game.
Any help will be great, please. Thank you in advance.

if movable is checked than it is always going to move if you have a collide rule applied with it. you can reduce the movement of the object by adding a constraint attribute to the x and y but it will move a few pixels when you collide with it.

When I collide with them they still move.

No, not if you uncheck 'moveable'.

I checked movable because I need the actor enemies to rotate wherever the player goes. They're sitting still but they rotate around where ever the player goes.

Here's what's inside my Physics tab:



I have fixed rotation and moveable checked so that they can rotate and follow the actor player.

Thanks, @Socks

Okay. Thanks, everyone! I got it figured out!

also if you dont want to have it pushed away but still want to move it then uncheck moveable and use the interpolate behavior to interpolate the position to another position (one of my first questions I couldnt figure out so I thought I would tell you so you dont need to ask )

@timolapre1998, thanks for sharing!
I am curious, how would you use the Interpolate behavior to change positions?

-Timo-

interpolate self.position.X to 100 in 1 second.
now he moves to x=100 in 1 second

(usefull for doors, not moveable but can move )

That's a good idea. Something I will definitely write down and keep.
You could even use something like this, too maybe?

I hope that helps
