You mean like this? http://game-editor.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=11542&p=81233&
It's a bit more complex than it needs to be though, so if you'd like a simpler version just ask.

yea i've tried that one but the problem is, when i insert the code in the collision event between the player and the enemy,the level of transparancy only changes.. it doesn'tblink ><

Here's probably the easiest way. When the player collides with the actor, have something like this.

Code: Select all

collide.transp=1; // sets the other actor to be invisible
CreateTimer("Collide Actor", "blink_timer", 500);

Then in that actor's timer event for blink_timer, reset transp back to 0. If you want it to blink several times, you'll need to create an actor variable to hold the number of remaining blinks. If you need more explanation on that just ask.
