Hi SmokeyAce.
As a GameSalad Noob these are really helpful as building blocks!
Thanks a lot.

No worries @rhysdarambo let me know if you need anything in particular!

Hi @SmokeyAce73 wondering how I can delete a character to make a Pinch type movement.

SmokeyAce73

Hi @Dooncam To you mean pinch the corners of, lets say, a square and 'pinch' them together, the actor will shrink until a certain point where it will be deleted? If so i'm sure I can do that, ill create it later on tonight if thats ok

More template coming out tonight/early morning tomorrow!

Thanks a lot @bjandthekatz. Still learning

@Smokeyace73 It's very nice that you are giving back to the community with these demos. I would only suggest, in the platformer template you could change self.graphic.flip horizontal to true instead of changing the image. This will help save space with a big project and the hassle of manually changing the images.

Smokeyace73: Thanks a lot for sharing these! Really cool!

Thanks for saying so @Alano.

Smokeyace73,

I just sent you message but will ask it here as well. Regarding Spawning Random Actors: How do I adjust the speed of the falling actors? I don't see the usual "acceleration" adjustment. Thanks again!

-Alan

SmokeyAce73

@alano I have used interpolate rather than accelerate, change the time on the interpolate behaviour to change the speed

Dooncam

@SmokeyAce73 is just what I wanted to do, I'll be waiting for the help, thanks.

Sorry @Dooncam what was it you needed help with?

Hello can you make a template for the request we gave, regarding the actors spawning rate increasing over time (for one particular actor, not random different actors), basically becoming more difficult as time of that particular scene progresses?

And this one actor spawning at a faster rate progressively, spawning randomly from 3 different spawners, but never spawning at the same time as another actor. Lastly, they also fall at a slightly faster rate as time progresses.

Thank you very much! Sorry if causing a hassle.

SmokeyAce73

@devmatt I'll get on that right away

Smokeyace73: Thanks for making that high score but I think it was someone else's request. Awesome though!

@Alano no worries! Feel free to use whatever

SmokeyAce73

Hey @SmokeyAce73‌ I wanted to switch the way the actors spawn, (from right to left instead of left to right). Any ideas on what I would have to do? Thanks in advance!

@SmokeyAce73,can you make a short template requested by devmatt(accelaration with time)...it would be great,you are of great help:) -actors spawning rate increasing over time (for one particular actor, not random different actors), basically becoming more difficult as time of that particular scene progresses?

And this one actor spawning at a faster rate progressively, spawning randomly from 3 different spawners, but never spawning at the same time as another actor. Lastly, they also fall at a slightly faster rate as time progresses.

Really simple to do, check the Spawner actor and change where they spawn on X axis to -50 (This will make them spawn out of the scene so the play cannot see them spawn

Then go ahead into the random actors and change (I think I used interpolate, not on a computer that can run GS until later otherwise I would check) and change the movement to left rather than right. As I said the computer I'm on at the moment cannot run GameSalad however, tonight i'll double check what I've said and if your still having issues I'll alter the template for you.
