directional_velocity=12;
angle=rand(360);

if you click on help in GE and documentation it will explain alot of GE's functions and variables..
also xscreen and yscreen is for this:
xscreen: The Actor's horizontal screen position in screen coordinates.
yscreen: The Actor's vertical screen position in screen coordinates.

It's not possible to set the position, but you can drag the window by mouse..

so [b]theres no way to set the position of the game window? If the scripting is a C language shouldn't there be a code to set the position? When I run the game from the editor using game mode the last position I had the game was saved but not when I run the compiled exe.[/b]

gE does not use all of C. There are a lot of things we can't do, this is a game creator after all. We have no control of anything outside the game directory. If you use full screen, the game will be centered, but it is full screen.

I know you can center screen with code. Find out the resolution of your computer and use the GetCenter() function.
No matter the resolution size is 400x400 or 800x800 the center is 0,0 on all screens.
- Code: Select all
GetCenter("0","0");
Just kidding sky is right there is no way in game editor.
