As an experiment I ran an earlier simpler version of my game that involves 1 on screen character repeating a short animation cycle every 2 seconds. There are additional actors that spawn, fall to th

Well thats one reason I put up a suggestion for the Expression Editor for Timers. If we had one you could make the enemies just spawn faster instead of more by using an equation.

Depends how you want it. Is it 1 enemy per 5k points or increases number of enemies spawn every 5k points. I'm assuming the latter, but you know about assuming so....

That sounds like a great solution too, but what if you're having multiple enemies of the same caliber being spawned, could I say every 3 seconds, spawn enemy "name"? But if I want a

After 10 seconds spawn a fighter ship.

timer - after .3 seconds spawn Actor 2 (then at the end add a 'destroy this actor' behaviour).

I have, they spawn randomly each time. Every time a spawn occurs, it randomly selects a new location the next time within your coords.

Alright, I have another question/problem. I set the spawn instruction so that the location of said spawning would occurs between or equal to the X points 320 and 420 and Y points 0 and 480. In other w

1) Be able to create random locations for the enemy to spawn off-screen (kinda interferes with destroying my enemies once they leave the screen, but I'll try to fix that later), but are somehow not to

Maybee you can spawn an enemy when your character is moving ie. every 50 pixels this way:

So I'm just diving into creating a sidescrolling platformer and wanted to see how peeps on GS are spawning enemies in a sidescrolling platformer game.

6. Don't steal game names. Make the name of your game unique. I'm not gonna make "Nario Planet" & then make it strongly resemble Mario World.

For example, Braid for the Xbox 360 was inspired by mario brothers, and you can see the platformer resemblance, but for the most part, the game is a very unique intellectual property with the art styl

Actor.Letter = 1 spawn actor A

Since you require dropping so many letters, there must be an easier way to do this than have to spawn each letter individually, so good luck!

Now inside of another actor, create a rule that states "An attribute changes game.Enemy Count is equal to 0". Inside of that put a "Spawn Actor" behavior. Make it s

Create a game(global) attribute for total number of enemies. When you destroy an enemy, decrement the game attribute. Then have a rule that checks if that attribute == 0, then spawn actor your button.

So create another invisible game controller, say spawn "apple" and create an actor prototype with the image apple. Same thing for a different type of fruit.

1) Spawn actor, non collideable, move to (maybe an area off screen), destroy actor.

1) How would I spawn, say, a creature in a sidescrolling platformer running the other direction of the player that is non-collidable, and just an added element for looks
