If the top circle is supposed to go back and forth, you could create two wire frame regions - one left, one right. When the ship collides with one, xvelocity *= -1; (change the sign, which reverses direction).

If you use a path, change the number of frames to slow it down. If you have 10 points on your path, setting frames to 120 or something will make it move more slowly along the path.

ok thanks i forgot about doing that 1+ point

[Game A Gogo]

or here is a more realistic one
NOTES: BulletP is your ship's bullet~
EShip is the enemy/boss
PShip is your ship

Code: Select all

if(actorcount("BulletP")==0 || BulletP.y>y)//Check if there is no bullet on game
{
if(x+(width/2)<0-(view.width/2) && x+(width/2)>(view.width/2))//Does not make the ship go out of screen
{
    if(x<PShip.x)
    {
        x+=1;
    }
    else if(x>Pship.x)
    {
        x-=1;
    }
}
}
else if(actorcount("BulletP")>0)//Check if there a bullet created
{
if(x+(width/2)<0-(view.width/2) && x+(width/2)>(view.width/2))//Does not make the ship go out of screen
{
    if(x<BulletP.x)
    {
        x-=1;
    }
    else if(x>BulletP.x)
    {
        x+=1;
    }
}
}

hope this works good, you may need to play with the thing that makes the ship stay in screen, I don't think it's right

thanks ill try this once i add everything in

[Game A Gogo]

oh ya, I forgot to tell you what it does...

When there is a bullet that you have shoot, it will go away from it, when there is no bullets in game, it will go at the same position as you, so it can shoot back and actually aims a little

ooo that sounds cool! 1+Point to go with your other 77

[Game A Gogo]

lol, thank you :3
altough, personally, I don't think I have merited that much points... I mean, I really don't help a lot :/

[D.caaz]

you make good games though and some people give points for that
