Title: How to make the enemy's xscale change in order to be facing the player?
Post by: l3agu32 on May 10, 2016, 08:37:49 AM

I want the enemy's xscale to change when the player changes his side. For instance, if the enemy's x position is 400 and the player's x position is less than 400, the enemy should be facing the left. Thank you.

Code: [Select]

if (player.x > enemy.x){
    image_xscale = -1
} else {
    image_xscale = 1}

In one line of code:

Code: [Select]

image_xscale = sign(sign(enemy.x-player.x)+0.1)enemy.x can be replaced with x if the instance calling is the enemy. And player.x can be replaced with x if the instance calling is the player.
