Is there a way to paste into background with scale and rotation?

Not really John. Actives work fine, won't cause any performance hit granted you handle them correctly (ie: destroy when not needed or visible anymore)

There's a tutorial over in the Academy for this... Please login to see this link.

A good find and I will say that it makes life very difficult. Clickteam should do something about it or at least add it to the wishlist.

[MENTION=7895]DANY[/MENTION], can you give an example of how it looks like? If we have to buy something, we prefer to see what the final effect looks like.

Hi, I have the same problem and I would like to know how you did it, thanks

There's actually a way of pasting altered objects, it can paste objects containing a shader
If you rotate and rescale your character with a shader, you could paste it

I don’t have insight of what’s actually happening when you do this but be careful: Pasting objects with shaders can lead to performance issues. I experimented with that approach for altering my tileset colors before pasting and FR went down drastically. Maybe only an issue if you use many objects tho.

Is there maybe a way to screenshot a layer and put the screenshot in a single object to save on ressources ?

@Please login to see this link. both complex softwares and looki's shader pack has shader for rotation, be aware that it will not expand out of the actual size of the sprite, so you need need to add a blank space around it to avoid cropping the effect

@Please login to see this link. if you're not using in software mode, yes, it slow things down, but it works way faster in software mode... (talking about pasting with picture object)
You can also destroy pasted objects, this would avoid having too much tiles pasted all the time, also, tiles that have do not need collision, disable collision completely to avoid more issues...

@Please login to see this link., yes, Screen Capture object can save it to clipboard, I think you can load these on Surface this way

Yup it works but it's more complicated than that, for example I have a game with multiple layers. Let's say there are 3 layers, one for Gameplay (player, interface) one for blood (when you kill enemies that will cover the wall) and the last one which is the wall. Every bloodshed has a different scale and angle for a more realistic effect. Is there a way that I can screenshot only the layer with the blood and paste it as an image to save on ressources ?

If it helps here's a page with a trailer of the game i'm working on, i'm trying to optimize it : Please login to see this link.
