  • If you are using System Save, here is an example with multiple save slots:

  • Your only layer has 0% parallax. You need to either set parallax to 100%, or enable unbounded scrolling in layout properties.

    Another option:

    -> Sprite: Set position to (Touch.X(Sprite.LayerNumber), Touch.Y(Sprite.LayerNumber))

  • You can link multiple options to the same node.

    You will need to keep track of which bread and which cheese was picked with events - for example, store them in variables, in an array or a dictionary.

  • Not sure how any of that is related to setting an angle of motion. But I'm glad it works :)

  • Strangely, I can't reproduce it. Can you post your project file?

  • The Pathfinding object doesn't move immediately upon creation. There’s no motion - and therefore no angle of motion. You can simply set the object's angle instead.

  • ... hanging by a thread ... throw all the work in the trash...

    jomego Don't be dramatic. While many of us aren't happy about the removal of SDK1, it's not the end of the world for your studio or your projects. Just switch to the LTS version.

    Also, nothing you can say here will influence Ashley's decision in any way, have a read:

  • Whenever you move objects like that, always use delta time.

    Set object.x to self.x+5 is wrong

    Set object.x to self.x+300*dt is correct

  • No, loading dictionaries with AJAX is not different from loading arrays or any other files.

    You are probably trying to get the key before the dictionary is loaded. AJAX request is asynchronous, you need to wait for it to be completed before accessing the dictionary.

  • So does this mean I have to load in the json dictionary differently from an array?

    If you're asking about the JSON string format, then yes - the dictionary JSON format is different from the array JSON format. 

    {"c2dictionary": true,"data": {"0": ""}}

{"c2array":true,"size":[1,1,1],"data":[[[""]]]}

    Also, please remove the "Trigger once" condition from your events. Don’t use it until you clearly understand how it works and what it does.

  • You'll need to add Molek sprite to a family, and move instance variables from the sprite to the family level.

    Then you will be able to pick both in the same event, something like this: 

    Chemic pick children Molek
Chemic pick children MolekFamily

 Molek is attached
 MolekFamily is NOT attached
 Molek overlapping MolekFamily 
 ----> MolekFamily set attached to true

  • "Bullet on collision with Enemies" picks an instance of Enemies family. But the BulletHitZombie function doesn't know about that. So in this case you need to pass the UID of the of the picked to the function. Create a parameter enemyUID, pass it to the function, and pick an Enemies instance inside the function by UID.

    Another option is to enable "Copy picked" in function properties, then it will automatically pick instances from that main event.

    And the third option is simply move all those actions from the function into the main event - "Bullet on collision with Enemies".

    But, this is important: since your events are picking Enemies family instance, all actions should also apply to Enemies family - not to the Sprite as on your screenshot!

    EDIT: Right, there is a 4th option - use a custom action, it will work very similar to a function with "copy picked".
