Changing To Fullscreen In-Game And Actor Jumping

[PerrySteven]

Hello, I'm wondering how you can create an action that allows the player to change to fullscreen mode while in-game? And I would also like to know how to move an actor to a set of coordinates in an instant, without using the MoveTo function? I tried looking for solutions in already created threads but there were none that were along my lines. Any help on the topics would be much appreciated.

Hello!

I'm wondering how you can create an action that allows the player to change to fullscreen mode while in-game?

Currently the only way to do this is to export your game in both, full screen and window mode, and then use LoadGame(); to load the desired version. But when Game Editor 1.4.1 comes, there'll be a very easy way to quickly change between window mode and full screen mode in-game.

And I would also like to know how to move an actor to a set of coordinates in an instant, without using the MoveTo function?

This is actually really simple. You have to do it through code, though. Let's say that you'd want to move an actor called "myActor" to the position (150, -320) when it's clicked with a mouse. Here's how you'd do it:

myActor -> Mouse Button Down: Left -> Script Editor:

Code: Select all

myActor.x = 150;
myActor.y = -320;

I hope this helps!

Sorry, I meant the full release of GE 1.4.1. So far skydereign has only released a beta version of 1.4.1 and that version doesn't have this feature yet.
