Spawn ball

Hello, I'm a newbie with GameSalad. I'm making a space side scrolling shooter. I can spawn an enemy actor to move straight from right to left.

if you do that you will end up with the particles being spawned randomly in a 200x200 area that are moving away from the top right corner of that area.

now your particles will spawn inside a 200x200 area centered around the center of your actor but will always move away from the center.

a parrallex scrolling effect and with that they spawn,however i turned all them off to no avail.

you can also change the name of a spawned actor … so you really don't need the added attribute

I don't want to have to spawn and destroy as others have suggested in a previous post. There must be a way?

animation been run ?" is 'false' - then spawn animation 'A'.

On your spawner, have it randomly assign a number to a global attribute called tableRow. Then spawn your 5 actors.

think the only problem with spawnBehaviors … is with timerBehaviors set at fast firing speed … every O.? sec spawn

I have 5 actors, and each has an internal/unique attribute called 'myNumber'.

I always spawn actors in my projects and never had a problem. Our current project will be spawning actors intead of moving them into place as I'm building everything on one scene to avoid the loading

Yes , only one spawn per behavior , but if you add a timer or a timer with a counter you can spawn as much you can spawn many actors with only 1 spawn behavior .

Thanks for the quick input on the subject=) Think i will be using spawn then. Just hope that the LUA are being dropped soon then=)

Yeh when LUA is dropped and we can just use spawn and destroy it'll make it soo much easier than faff around with recycling everything.

I think the whole don't spawn is becoming moot with the new armv7 processors and the power of newer devices and when lua is dropped it will be a non issue.

Oh no no , by no means you can use spawn , its just , when you test your game on the device , if you see low fps rates and lags , you might consider recycling bullets instead of spawning , just to inc

I have read that many hear don't use spawn? When should i use it? i am making a space shooter now and i am wondering for example laser shoots ten at the screen at most should put ten of thoose of scre

yes, it does constantly spawn the lineSegment BUT that is event driven … not extremely resource intense
