An auto Scroller

[Jacob_Miller]

Well, the backdrop scrolls sideways, btu my active object is the alpha fighter top # 7 which is in the spacecraft tab under games. It seems that all objects get pushed to the side, and I have to keep the active object moving to the right for it to barely keep up. I have it on 8 directions, in case that matters.

What do you meen by "launch"

[Jacob_Miller]

Mmk now all you need to do to change speeds is mess around with the five on the end.

I think if you create the objects instead of "launching" them, and their "Follow the Frame" property is unchecked, you can set their direction and speed and they won't be bothered by the scrolling... I think...

ok, so now it isn't affected by the screen, but it can still go out of the screen sight. I need for it to stop moving or bounce when it goes out of the visible frame, but im having some problems with that. And how do i make it so that a bullet is destroyed when it goes out of sight?

"Bullet is ( pixel(s) from window edge" -> Destroy

Find the condition:

Bullet>Position>Is getting close to window's edge?

[Jacob_Miller]

Awesome, thats about everything... for now i guess. But i actually have one last question. I set it up so that when my ship is -1 pixels from the edge, it stops moving. But now my ship can slowly go through the winow, and then slowly back in. Its really weird. Help would be cool, and thank you so much for the help, its realy cool.

Have it bounce and then stop, I think that will work

I've looked everywhere, but i can't find the sloution to my previously stated problem. Whenever it goes into the edge of the screen (its set to stop at 0 pixels away, because if it bounce then it gets stuck) it wll slowly go through the screen's side or top or bottom or w/e. It goes slowly through it and continues to slowly move away even when it is off screen. Then I can slowly move it back. he has been a problem with many of my games, and now it getting pretty annoying.

ok, I didnt see that until i posted my last post, i will try it now. DO you meen have it at like when it is 0 pixels away from the screen bounce AND stop?

[RickyRombo]

use 1 px, and try bounce, I'm fairly certain it's because stopping it won't move it and the object will still be X pixels close to the edge.

Bounce it just by itself and see if it works, otherwise we'll have to meddle with the x/y coordinates

[Jacob_Miller]

ok, so that hasn't worked, but i've got that if it leaves the play area than it stop moving, and that has worked for the top and bottom, but the sides still need working on.
