I've been trying to figure out (from the 1942 demo) how to go about making my player invincible (and flashing transparent) for a moment after he's hit by an enemy... but with no luck... Anyone want to take the time to help me with this?

make a variable called hit.
and a variable called wait
when he is hurt,
- Code: Select all
if(hit == 0)
{
hit = 1;
do_damage calculation;
}
wait = 30;
//or whatever you want it to be,
//if you're game runs at 30 fps set wait to the fps rate(30) for a 1
//1 second wait time
on draw actor event:
- Code: Select all
if(hit == 1)transp = .5;
if(hit == 0)transp = 0;
wait -= 1;
if(wait <= 0)hit = 0;
that should work
if you have any problems let me know.
