Hello I am trying to do a good restart function for my coins. I have a game that has some actors that swim around and when I go to menu and restart the game I have it so that actors positions reset. S

I have an actor "alien" that will be destroyed. There are several different types of aliens that can spawn randomly. They all will have a chance for dropping random items. Be it coin

Darren i have a random spawn for the enemy, i just don't want it to spawn over the hero while the game is playing, in your template for collisions with tables, it shows this, but will it work if the h

Use the position in the spawn actor...notice the bit that says position you can change this from 0 0 to what you require.

how can i make it some when i spawn a enemy, it does not spawn over my moving hero?

Thanks @tshirtbooth. I will keep my eyes peeled. @tatiang, yeah I spawn them not recycle them. It is an RTS so spawning is essential to the game. In general it works fine. There are just a few cas

values from one actor to another. Really, I am spawning characters of the same "type," but who have different attributes. In most cases, the spawn can be instant and I can hide it

I assume from your post that you don't want to just change the image, but the entire actor. The most consistent approach would be to have one actor that just changes its image (and/or size) and its r

k so im working on a game where when you shake the device it spawns an actor but I only want one actor on the screen at a time so each time the user shakes it again I want it to be replaced with a dif

This will give each instance in the scene a unique number. There are a bunch of ways to use this. You could move instances into a scene by a rule like this

My timer idea does work for checking multiple attributes but it needed tweaking because it would register repeatedly as true after a single attribute had changed value (rather than requiring a unique/

I had this problem with spawning a actor in a different layer. What I did was made another actor, in the layer the flowers should be spawned in, and have that actor 'listen' through global variables a

you can place an actor in row one and it will spawn in the upper right corner. The issue with this depends on the fidelity of your grid. A 10x10 grid would have 100 possible starting positions for

sound and ambience, and most of all an enjoyable unique set of game mechanics.

If I had a square actor is it possible to spawn particles from its 4 corners with a single Particle Behavior rather than using 4 Particle behaviors?

@johnpapiomitis - Right, I understand how fundamentally that works. It just seems really inefficient/cumbersome to have to deal with a unique actor for each scene to do that. I was wondering if ther
