Programming Questions / Affecting Existing Objects

« on: June 15, 2015, 01:54:45 PM »

Is there a more elegant/simple/whatever was to affect objects that already exist when something occurs other than making them all check for variables in their step events? For example: if object A and B exist, and I want to make something happen to object B when object A gets shot.

I feel like there's gotta be something, but finding it in the depths of game maker's help feature is beyond me.

If you start the player high on a vertical screen and they reach max falling speed the UI sort of gets stuck out of place.

I got bored making a slow ramp up so I just restarted the project directly into jump refresher hell.

Getting a weird bug that seems to be slightly distorting spike sprites. Not quite sure what's causing it, but it seems to be at individual x coordinates. You can see it at a few places here, but most notably the upper left and bottom right spikes:



The only reason I could think of is that its a particularly large screen? I'm sure some of you have a better idea than me.

EDIT: The problem seems to have fixed itself, but it was still weird.

Does anyone really care what a bunch of pixel fetishists think?

Yes, everyone should be elated. I'm probably going to keep working on it till GMstudio goes on sale so I can get rid of the loading screen and title bar nonsense.

Up to my usual nonsense with the GMstudio engine. This is just the title screen and the second screen of the game, but I'm enjoying making something again.

So are we pretty much stuck with the launch screen and the "Made with GameMaker Studio" title unless we upgrade to premium?

Anyone talking poorly of YoSniper's engine is just upset that they can't master its mysterious complexity. I have faith in you.

Just use a cloud in a bottle from Terraria as your jump refresher.

adding twitch emotes to a forum was the worst idea anyone has ever had

Stay on topic, Kyir.

I can already predict that none of you will use a suitable amount of jump refreshers.

You really need a better name for it.

"I wanna conceptualize the Omnitruncated Tesseract"

Hey, I've got a theme. It's not just some word with six suffixes stuck on the end of it.

It's not about being long, it's about making you look like you're 12. Unless that's what you're aiming for. Never too late to change it though. Except after release. Then it's too late to change it.
