  • If you only need gravity, then platform behavior may be an overkill. You can control collisions with the ground with events. Say, when object is overlapping ground, set bullet behavior disabled.

  • The easiest way is to add Bullet behavior, and set angle of motion to 90 degrees. It will constantly pull the player down. But it may interfere with other events in your game, so you might need to make some changes.

    Or simply set player Y to (self.y+100*dt) on every tick, where 100 is gravity speed.

  • I need repeating random much more often than non-repeating.

    But it would be quite useful to have multiple permutation tables, under different tags. Similar to how we can create multiple probability tables.

    Nepeo Do you think it's possible?

    My guess is that "Ex" means nothing. Scirra just couldn't use "rgb" because it's an old expression from C2 and they wanted to preserve compatibility with old projects. So they named two new expressions rgbEx and rgbEx255

    Move actions from event 4 into event 2.

    Also, don't use "Trigger once".

  • Permutation is like shuffling a deck of cards. You need to do it once before you deal the cards, not while dealing each card.

    Looks like only one permutation table is supported at a time. So if you need two lists with non-repeating values, you would probably have to use an array. Create a permutation table for letters, copy them in random order into the array one by one in a loop. Then create/reshuffle the table for numbers, copy them into the same array.

    There may be an easier way to do this, if you could explain what you are trying to make.

  • Put invisible circle sprites on the picture where the hints should appear. Then simply make them visible when player clicks the help button.

    You can set different tags or IDs for each pair of circles using an instance variable.

  • Event 4 is running on every tick, which is not great.

    Select event 3 and press X to add an "Else" condition - you should re-initialize permutation table there.

    Also, I made a mistake in my screenshot - "Add 1" action should go after the "Set text".

  • You can create many empty frames. If you think there may be a maximum of 20 images, then create 20 frames, or even 30.

  • Here is how you use it with a list of words
