for making the screen follow the player I'm using the "centerview" way of doing it. however, when I make the player jump on a moving platform and use a "change parent" action, the view moves back to the place it was created until the player jumps off and the parent changes back to none. what can I do?

well i dont know that bug, but instead of centerview you could use a function on the view in draw actor like:

if(x<player.x)xvelocity=distace(x,y,player.x,player.y)*0.5;
if(x>player.x)xvelocity=-distace(x,y,player.x,player.y)*0.5; // I use * because / can cause errors when dividing 0

if i find an answer to your problem ill let you know
if not someone else will most likely help you soon.

well thanx anyway. +1.

can anyone answer my original question?

Why you dont use StopRight,StopLeft,StopTop,StopBottom???like in caveman???

because once the player gets too far out of the view, it will stop following.

Did you make it like this...

no but I'll try it.
