auto runner collision problem

Hello,

My name is July and I'm working on my own auto runner game. I've been learning Construct 2 for 3 weeks now and I really like it. I'm a 3D animator but now I want to be able to make my own games.

Usualy when I come across a problem I search the forum wich is by the way the best forum I ever met, and I find an answer how to resolve the issue.

But now I'm stuck.

So here is the thing:

-everything in my game is bullet and solid and they have a speed of 130

-the character is a platform that simulets running right from the start of the layout

-when he meets the side of a block I wanted everything to stop so i made a condition on collision with sprite > bullet speed 0 for everything

And he stops.

But when I jump I want everything to start again.

All the conditions I made before to be valid again.

So I want everything to stop only when I colide with the side of the block. Only with the side becouse I want to be able when I jump on the top of the blocks to run.

For this I made a second small sprite that i put in front of the block and everything stops when I colide with this second sprite, but when I jump nothing happens. I'm not on colision with the sprite anymore so I dont't get it why it dosen't start running again.

Maybe it's a stupid problem and for sure is very easy to fix but for me it's not and I can't find the solution.

Thank you for reading my post and for every answer I get :D, if anyone answers. <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Would it work if you make an event

player is not overlapping small sprite

trigger once

• set bullet speed to 130

You could do this with switching a variable too, which would probably make the events easier to read.

I would recommend to do this.

When player collision with object->set immovable to each thing you want to stop

To restart the level when you press or touch something make a sub condition to the condition above and make:

When any touch or mouse or keyboard input (you have to add the plug first though)->restart layout,clear all variables (this is in system)

But if I say to restart layout and clear all variables I will lose the timer and score and it will go from begining.

This is what it looks like but it dosen't work:

when Player on collision with sprite5 > x,y,z etc set bullet speed to 0

when Player is not overlaping Sprite5 and

System trigger once

then

x, y,z set bullet speed to 130

I think something is wrong in the second line. I don't really get the logic how can system trigger once be a condition for a reaction. It sounds more like an event.

Help :(
