Programming Questions / How do I make only one object not be destroyed when pressing R?

« on: March 19, 2016, 04:18:27 PM »

I made an object only for visual purpose and want it not to be destroyed when pressing R. I tried making the room persistent, but it affected other objects, what slowed down the rhythm of the level design.

Programming Questions / how to make the xscale from an object change to the xscale from the kid?

« on: February 21, 2016, 04:25:18 PM »

I attached an object to the kid and I want to make this objects' xscale change always that the kid's xscale changes.
I put the codes in the step event of the object. The kid's object is named objPlayer.
The first code I tried was this one: image_xscale=objPlayer.image_xscale
The other code I tried was: if objPlayer.image_xscale=-1{image_xscale=-1}else{image_xscale=1}
I really don't know if the dots are needed or if the code has to be in the step event. I would appreciate some help, thank you.

Programming Questions / How to load a changed background inside the room?

« on: February 19, 2016, 10:44:43 AM »

I'm using game maker studio. In my game I put the option to change the background_index when you're inside the room, but when I load the game pressing R, the original background appears again. I want to know how to save the background changed when saving the game, so that when loading, the background_index changed is what appears instead of the original background.

In the fangame I'm creating, when I press R the kid is always created facing the right (xscale=1), even if I shoot the save point facing the left (xscale=-1), how do I fix this? Thank you!

Programming Questions / Re: How to make an object like an arrow point to the direction that it's moving to?

image_angle=[direction]

I recommend making the sprite centered in order for this to look decent at times.

Thank you, now it's working how I wanted. And by sprite centered, do you mean the origin in the center of sprite?

Programming Questions / How to make an object like an arrow point to the direction that it's moving to?

I'm using Game maker studio. I have an object that is an arrow for an avoidance. How do I make the arrow point to the direction that it's moving to, for instance if it's moving down, the arrow should point down, if it's moving to the direction 220, the arrow should point to 220 as well, etc. To picture better what I'm trying to do, you can watch the gameplay of the game "I wanna be the bridge" on youtube and see how the arrows point exactly to the direction they're moving to. Thank you.

Unfinished / Incomplete / I Wanna Revive Demo

« on: July 21, 2015, 12:17:10 AM »

Can you return from the world of the dead? Press shift if you think so! This is a demo with 3 platforming screens and one boss. I put a lot of savepoints so you could check the whole demo without trouble. Give your thoughts on what should be worked better. And so you know I got to finish the platforming part, but I didn't get far against the boss, so as a skilled player if you are quite sure the boss is unbeatable because of so many attacks let me know.
