  • You'd have to sit down with your design and work it out. To give money every second you can use system every X seconds action and add to the Money variable.

  • You can use a layout per level. For the event sheet you can create a unique one per layout if you expect it to be very different, and then 'include' a main event sheet that has all the common events like player movement and animations etc.

  • Yes Waits inside the function makes sense, that's probably why the picking is broken. Didn't share the functions though.

  • Probably you are not picking instances with the other events but we can't see them. If you change variables only then it will be fine. If it forgets the picked instances then it must be down to the condition which is from Construct 2, not really worth breaking down why that does or doesn't work as it's difficult/impossible to recreate.

    You should use the Construct 3 functions, or potentially as a workaround store the UID of the instance in a local variable amongst your other local variables that means at least you don't have to rely on picking from the event which is running every tick. If you have saved the instance in question as a local variable then nothing can really go wrong.

  • The skill set up function does what? Check an instance variable on the player? I would skip using functions here and just use a condition, player has skill.

  • This looks quite old to me so it's Construct 2 yeah? What UID is it showing in the browser logging? It may forget picked instances if it runs that condition next tick but looks like Construct 2.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • You can use 'is overlapping' if that fits your game, that's up to you and how you want to detect collisions.

  • Well you said the work is almost complete on the shop, what did you mean by this? Buy and sell mechanic depends on the design of the game.

  • You can create a UI layer by setting the parallax to 0,0 in layer properties. This means that objects on that layer won't scroll and will be static on screen

  • Hey lionz, I've finally finished my first game. Check it out

    Nice job! :)

  • Make them wider than the enemy, or on the events instead of using lubu.width come up with your own value lower than 94

  • Ah I see it's because the characters are too thin, they have the same width as the enemy so the offset does not work. Characters 2, 4 and 5 are all wider than the enemy, 1 and 4 are 94 same as the enemy.
