Ahhh, yep with a little experimentation and trial and error it works with the constrain etc as suggested. I still needed the shadow to rotate with the player ship so I left the rotate commands in. I t

give it an acceleration opposite to gravity and constrain its position as well.

Make the shadow a totally different actor. Constrain the X and Y position of the original actor to scene attributes. Then constrain the shadow's location to the X and Y points, but add to the points t

So I created a game attribute boolean, called self on the ground

I tried just placing the animate attribute into the actor's rules and attributes, and it didn't look like it worked, she was moving strange

I have walking animations for my character when she walks left and right, but I want to add an animation to her when she's standing still, where would I place the attribute for this?

you can't assign more than one variable to an attribute, make sense? You have to make new actors for each platform you put in a level. SDMG's solution seems simpler and'll work with any and all actor

for example, i'm working on a space invaders clone in which i don't use invisible walls or constrain attributes. i simply use variables that represent my barriers like...left border, right border etc.

Game attributes created:

Oh, and JGary, I tried that theory out on the original build by changing the boolean attribute to an integer attribute, and setting up a counter display. It alternated from 0 to 1, so it can't be what

What's the best way to constrain the player within the boundaries of the width of the level?

Any ideas how this can be achieved using the - Move to & Constrain attributes

The attribute needed to be an 'Integer'

Any ideas how this can be achieved using the - Move to & Constrain attributes

What Kind of attribute type should it be? (Boolean, text, integer, real, angle, index)

Create an actor call it "wall" - set the alpha value to 0 (makes it invisible) you can then create a collide behavior between the ball and wall. You can control how much bounce ther

Change attribute game.Scene Number to 1

In the meantime I would suggest double-checking the size of your game assets. Be sure that images are as close to in-game resolution as possible, that way you're not wasting unused image space. Also y

For now you don't need a pause scene for every level, you could just make a game attribute that keeps track of the last level via a number before you go to the pause screen. Then on the pause screen,

than have the door have 2 "Change Attribute" settings where it's in it's own timer constantly changing "Door Position X to self.position.X" and "Door Posi
