Cant get my head around this :S

I have an example here of some objects that always go to the right. You can move the player around with arrow keys. The problem is that as soon as you move the objects that are supposed to move all the time stop. As soon as you stop they continue to move... I have noticed that if you remove one event line it does work though but I have no idea why (If you remove set speed at random). Could someone please explain this? :S

THe problem here lies in an optical illusion, I believe. I think they are moving, but at the same speed as you, thus they will appear to be standing still!

Fun fact: A good example of a literal case of the Red Queen Hypothesis

EDIT: No, you're right, they're not moving. I'm gonna take a closer look.

I've narrowed it down, and the problem is related to the camera moving, not the player moving. Still searching

Try checking "follow the frame" for viral drop 2.

i don't know if you want them to have that effect, but when you have follow the frame unchecked, their x/y coefficients will always scroll with the screen

The problem is in the pinball movement, when a screen scrolls it stops moving. You can set the movement to 8-dir or race car and it will solve the issue.

Actually, i tested the events in a new application with the same events and it seems to work fine..?(even with random speed)

i really hope it isn't a problem with the pinball movement not being able to scroll with the screen. I could've sworn I used it before with scrolling and it worked fine, but I don't remember.

Good that you sorted it out.
But there is a definite difference beetween pinball and 8dir movement when scrolling, not sure why... , pinball seems to lag behind when bening scrolled instead of keeping it's position.

Thanks guys! I did not know this about pinball movement :s I changed it to bouncing ball and it seems to work now!
