Possible Clickteam Movement Controller bug

[mobichan]

I have a action that uses the CMC to set the speed and direction of an object (a bullet) towards the player qualifier group. Then there is an action that follows the CMC action (same line of code) that sets the animation of the object firing the bullet.

This works great in the exe, but in Flash I have run into a problem. If the player dies, then the action to set the direction of the bullet seems to stop at that action and a stream of bullets fires towards angle 0. In the exe version, only one bullet is fired and the subsequent code is executed as expected.

Can someone clarify why this might be happening? And is it something that can be fixed?

It probably doesn't destroy the qualifier in the Flash mode, but in the exe it detects that all players are gone so the action doesn't trigger?

I'd say to test for the number of player qualified objects?

I did end up checking for number of players, but it seems like a workaround to a bug. Can any of the Clickteam devs confirm this is a bug or limitation of the Flash exporter? I can provide a simple example if you need one.

And thanks for the suggestion RickyRombo.

It seems to be a bug. can you send me your program?

Thanks Francois. I emailed a file to you with a simplified case of the bug.
