  Like I said, you can't use CSS with sprites, but you can apply different effects and behaviors.

  Also, you link doesn't work, the video is unavailable.

  The circles can be sprites, yes. What I mean is that big shapes (lines, rectangles etc.) are composed of these circles, and are not just single sprites with polka-dot pattern.

  Here is a quick demo:

  Are you saying you've tried with a sprite button and "On touched MySprite" event?

  It's possible that the TextBox is somehow retaining the focus and intercepting all touch events. Try removing the TextBox. If it helps, then you can make your own version of text box, see this tutorial:

  Drago_18 If you look at 4:38 in the video for example, you'll see that when objects are rotating they change their shape. Even the number of circles in each shape is constantly changing. And all circles are always in grid pattern. So these are definitely not sprites.

  It's a grid of circles that toggle visibility and changing their color to create animated images. Like a very low-resolution LED display.

  Fixed:

  .

  "Trigger once" is a tricky condition, I suggest never using it in situations like this where multiple instances of objects are involved. It can cause all kinds of weird and hard-to-find bugs.

  You can do this with keyboard events, for example "Key Left is down - Spite set mirrored", "Key Right is down - Spite set NOT mirrored".

  Or you can compare the Sprite.8direction.movingAngle, if it's between 90 and 270 degrees, set mirrored.

  Check out the Tutorials section, there are plenty of examples:

  You can destroy or erase data in this dictionary before saving, and in "On load" event restore it again.

  I imagine this can be done quite easily with a big tilemap. Each tile is a colored circle. You can "draw" moving/rotating objects on the tilemap using invisible sprites. For example, a sprite of a car is moving over the tilemap with bullet behavior. The car has several frames (one for each color) and plays looping animation. On every tick check which tiles the car is overlapping and set these tiles to the current car color.

  Or you can do the same with a big matrix of small sprites instead of the tilemap, but this may be worse for performance.

  Also, as I mentioned in your other post, you can use two Pode's addons - Extract image and Inject image:

  You made two instances of the same sprite. Of course when you load an image, it's loaded into both. You need two different sprite objects. Or two frames of the same sprite - load one image into the first frame and another image into the second.

  You can add an instance variable "isUploaded" to sprites. Set it to true after an image is uploaded. Or use a global variable(s) to track which sprites have images.

  I assume you mean "virtual gamepads", or thumbsticks?

  Check out this example:

  Your mistake is that you are restarting the timer every 0.2s

  You need to start it only once when the enemy switches from patrolling to chasing. Also, set the name for the timer, don't leave empty quotes "".

  So the yellow sprite doesn't move?

  I don't know, I'm sure there is explanation, but I need to see the project file.

  You cannot apply CSS effects to native C2 objects, only to Form Control objects. Also, you forgot to post the link to the video :)
