[kevinsaccoun]

can someone help me with something please?

my turret rotates when enemys come near it, but it wont rotate to the closest enemys when the enemys it was looking at goes out of rang! how do i make the turret rotate to the nearest enemy?

[BlueLemonKnight]

i can i help you. To make the turret face the enemy follow my instructions

on the alarm

create bullet relative

put bullet code where the alarm is

delete section of instance destroy

then put image_index = direction/360

then speed = 0

[kevinsaccoun]

thx alot =)

[jaekae222]

thnx so much.

so all the new objects have exactly the same characteristics as the ones before?

e.g. the ladybug has the exact same characteristics as enemy?

[jaekae222]

is there a part in between part 3 and part 4a... coz how did u get the ladybug and other stuff on part 4a on tutorial and if there is plz put a link onto ur comments plz

[BlueLemonKnight]

no there isnt i went ahead on the game without recording so i had to go to an early copy of the gmae

[bondman67]

srry nvm i dident see part 2 b

[bondman67]

my enemys spawn but they dont move help?

[95pivotman]

for me the codes don't work

[BlueLemonKnight]

which codes?

[DJPetomatick]

this doesent work for me at all. When i start the game, i just see two enemies, in middle of the map. And my path. And wherever i klick a tower comes. But nothing else. Exactly nothing!

No action. No enemies, no bullets. Not a single shit! :(

[BlueLemonKnight]

i did the click as a tower creator because i needed to make a real tower creator

tower. In the create have set alarm0 to 30

Alarm0: Create relative bullet

set alarm0 to 30

Keeps repeating

Enemy create set path to path whatever u called it at speed 3. the enemies when created will jump to path. 

the path should start outside room.

just mail me ur email and ill send u the source

[Skootaboi7]

did you do a tut with the enemy creator in it? if not how do you do it

[BlueLemonKnight]

i think i did. maybe its in part 2.

If not here .

have an object enemy creator

create set alarm0 to a number

on alarm0 create enemy set alarm0 #

[DJPetomatick]

I dont understand a shit of that stuff

explain some more

[DJPetomatick]

Please?

[DJPetomatick]

You mean

Create -> Alarm 0 to 20

Create Instance of Object MainEnemy

???

[BlueLemonKnight]

sorry that ur frustrated. (im not that good at tutorials)

an example

OBJ enemy spawner

Create: set alarm0 to 40

alarm0: Set alarm0 to 40 create enemy not main enemy. main enemy is parent

[tu3185]

How do you make it so it would "kill" more than 1 enemy on 1 bullet?

[BlueLemonKnight]

create health for the bullet itself.

[tu3185]

You mean like code for healthpoints and on contact with enemy subtract "health" from bullet?

[nudalman]

i would like to continue tutorial on stuff such as creating multiple towers, and dragging them into battlefield.

[BlueLemonKnight]

I had part 4 done for a while its just no one was watching the tutorials till now.

Also its on yoyo games a much better version with more enemies, more towers, upgrades, and better sprites

[BlueLemonKnight]

Oh and for multiple towers and enemies is something you should figure out on your own. For a tower do everything the same thing as the first tower with different sprites and change rate on bullet,

then on bullet change speed or distance
