Replay like Meatboy

Hi,

I want to know how can I do something like the Ghostreplay animations of Meatboy.

I want a replay ghost like I go from point A to B and press Space after that the Level reset and the ghostanimation started at the end of the animation the ghost will be stop. Is it possible? Because I want interact with the ghost later ingame.

The basics of it is that you save every x and y position incrementally in an array and plays it back when desired.

You might find tutorials around that demonstrate this, I remember there was a Braid example (time rewind) awhile ago. You might be able to use that to fit your needs: 69.24.73.172/scirra/forum/viewtopic.php

Yes but that is only for one Player i want more Players on one screen....

Hmm, this would interest me too... let's have a think...

More players ... More arrays ! Magic !

A sprite and an array in a container works for this. Here's an example:

Notice that only two events are used for the recording and playback. The rest are just standard game events.

This idea can be extended by adding some interpolation between recorded states to smooth out hiccups caused by garbage collecting or other programs running in the background.

Aggh! The array instances! I can't handle the madness!

Solid job, yet again ;)

R0J0hound your example made me wonder how is possible to port from CC to C2, i've ported some .cap to .capx but the results were not perfect.

The one what im trying to port was Braid's time rewind, isn't possible for HTML5?

Of course it's possible ;) Instead of replaying the array forward, you step backwards, but it does come with complexity since you need to save time delays, animation frames etc.

R0J0hound Great example! Thanks!

Great example indeed. Thanks for suggesting it for the FAQ ramones, would've missed it otherwise.

R0J0hound Thanks this is great

bilgekaan , please don't bump a really old post ...

lol why not, the example is glorious isnt it

bilgekaan , because the post was made a long ago and isn't supposed to be

Bumped like this

Anyways , every example by R0J0 is glorious
