I'm trying now to constrain the positions, but subtracting the lead object's velocity from the follow object's position.. Looks like I'll be able to get a spring-y lag.

You'll need to create two real attributes to track the location of the actor you're following.

- new game attribute "ActiveButton" (integer)

However, I can tell you that collisions are dead easy.

Use two constrain Attribute behaviours:

An actor can't directly access another actor's attributes, but you can pass information from one to the other using game attributes.

Thanks Cobra. Is there a more detailed explanation for how to set up variables or how to use the constrain behavior based on another actor's X and Y position? I've scanned over the wiki and it's not o

I'm guessing the problem you are having is with the position of the beam, e.g. a tractor beam that draws a line between two potentially moving objects. I would suggest figuring out where the beam's s

if not applied on the image. As QS indicated, constrain the XY of the beam to your player actor with an offset so the beam source eminates from the bottom of the ship. Assign some simple collision ru

- new actor attribute "Stretching" (boolean)

I assume you'd constrain it to the x and y coords of your ship.

It's somewhat like trying to change a lego sculpture into a different one after it's been built. There's layers and interlocking pieces that, unless you know the reasoning and dependencies in the stru

On each individual scene, or the intro before the level starts, you can have the actor that controls when the Change Scene happens, to also do a Change Attribute on the Enemies on Screen attribute

The over all game attribute starts with 'Enemies On Screen 4' which means thats how each level (scene) will start, with 4. So what happens if i want 4 enemies on Level 1, then 6 enemies on level 2? ho

Ya but you can put a clothes actor and constrain attribute to the alien's X and Y and simply

Start with a count of the number of bricks you have. Then on the brick actor(s) when it is destroyed also include a Change Attribute behavior that decrements the count by 1. When the rule sees that t

So if you look at the rules in your game controller, it spawns your player when 'Player On Screen?' attribute is false and your number of lives is > 0 and you press 'N'.

--Change Attribute: game.totalSpeedLines = game.totalSpeedLines + 1

you assign flower.png to a game player attribute as text;

If anyone has any ideas, let me know, I was brainstorming and even thinking of creating an attribute for when she pounces and when she doesn't....
