  • Pathfinding using a tilemap might be a good idea if your enemy doesn't have platform behavior. (say, if it's flying above the ground and you move it using Bullet or MoveTo)

    With platform behavior you'll have to find the path first, and then move the enemy from one node to another, simulating platform controls - either left, right or jump. You'll also need to make sure that your enemy can jump across gaps, obstacles etc.

  • You are trying to load game from a string that contains the file name. This obviously doesn't work.

    You need to read the file and load game from the file content (JSON-string):

    Load game from JSON string:

    NWjs.ReadFile(NWjs.AppFolder&"Mapas\"&Array.At(0))

  • That was the most obvious problem with your events, but there may be other mistakes.

    Could you post your capx? It's hard to understand what's going on in that screenshot.

  • It's hard to tell, but you can run a test:

    On every tick

    Repeat 10000 times -> Function Call "MyFunction"

    In the function try setting the values directly or from the array.

    Run the project in debug mode and compare the performance.

  • "Array.CurValue" expression and "Array compare current value" event can only be used inside of "Array For each" loop.

    You need to replace them with "Array.At(x)" or "Array Compare at X"

  • And how are we supposed to help you without seeing your capx?

    You didn't even tell us what kind of game this is - platform, top-view, grid-based etc.

    I really don't recommend using "Waits" in game mechanics, especially long-running waits (for several seconds or longer). This is a very common mistake many beginners make.

    Use Timer behavior instead.

  • Check your origin image point in Rocks sprite. It should be at (0,0) for all frames!

  • On your screenshot the "For each key" event is executed every tick, which is wrong.

    You need to move it to "Local storage item exist", after you've loaded the dictionary from local storage.

    Also, you should remove subevent #3.

    And if the "Name" instance variable is unique for each item, it's better to pick a_PicPreview by Name, rather then by UID.

  • Using "Wait" or "Every X seconds" like this can give you nothing but trouble.

    You need Timer behavior.

    Timers are running per each instance and you have control over them (pause, stop etc.)
