  Is it iPhone-specific or on Android too?

  I noticed this bug in my Android game.

  I don't understand your code.. If you need to check that there are no sprites near the spawn position and then spawn a new sprite, here is how you can do it:

  AllanR Awesome job! Can you actually lose in this game? It seems endless.

  I made something similar many years ago, still my most successful game LOL

  play.google.com/store/apps/details

  Detecting if there are any valid moves left was one hell of a task, because the board could rotate and flip, so I had to check all 8 variations..

  Comparing relative position to the player will not always work correctly. Here is a better solution:

  Are these objects in the same family? Or are they instances of one object? You can do something like this:

  1. There are plenty of tutorials about how to use Local Storage and an official template. If you need to save many variables, I suggest using a dictionary.

  2. Add all UI buttons to a family UIButtons. Add a condition "Touch is not touching UIButtons" to the event where you are destroying the previous line and all similar touch events.

  3. It's up to you, there are no mandatory requirements. If you think your game needs a loading screen and a level selection screen - add them.

  What? Are you planning to create 25000 Sprite objects? This is a terribly bad idea. You need to use just one Sprite object with many instances.

  And even 25000 instances can cause problems with performance. You probably can do this with a Tilemap or a Tiled Background object instead.

  It's probably a hardware limitation. Most keyboards can't handle more than 2-3 keys pressed simultaneously.

  Change the second condition on your last screenshot. Currently it picks Obj_Energy_Countdown_Timer instance. You need to pick the ENM_Fighter instance. So change it to this:

  ENM_Fighter pick by unique ID = Obj_Energy_Countdown_Timer.Enemy_UID

  .

  Another option is to add both objects to a container. You will not need the variable, just keep the countdown object invisible when the ship is not firing.

  You are on the right track with the Timer behavior, but you don't have any "On Timer" events.

  If you have multiple enemy types, the best way is to add them all to a family. You can define variables like AttackDamage on the family and then do this:

  Of course there is no auto-exit feature. Try re-installing the program.
