simple question

[smellslike]

how do i make it so that my enemies only shoot when they are in the frame? would appreciate som help for a newbie

[piki]

i am noob here, but sounds like you have to do something like that:
if enemy inside the frame-then shoot at somewhere.
you can test position of object and if the object in the position then shoot at some direction.

hope i helped a bit.

There are a lot of ways you could do this.

A simple way might be to use the actions under the enemy to test
Position - Test Position - Out of playfield
Then "negate" this event using the right click menu in the event editor

Now this event will be true when your enemy is in the playfield.

Alternatively, use Test Position - Is in play area.
