BEN_RANDOM'S PROFILE

I'm Ben_Random. I've been around since 2008 but I didn't really get active here since Super RMN Bros. 2. That, an unfinished game, and a couple of contests sums up what I've done with game making on this site. I find that my main purpose here is writing. I have a few tutorials out there, as well as some reviews on Mario fan games such as RMN Bros. or Mario V.S. the Moon Base.

Now with the internet the way it is these days, you can probably use just this information to stalk me.

Player touch problem

author=Necrile
When I set the trigger to event touch, the player has to press the action button.
That makes no sense. My game has a boulder event, and if it touches the player with Event Touch it triggers the event sequence. You are doing something wrong.


Maybe it's something else. I have a couple of conditional branches in there, that may be the problem.

I think it's nice. However, if I may suggest one thing, the eyebrow and actual eye should be separated. Other than that, it's good! Simplicity isn't always a bad thing.

Thank you. I tried the separation but it looked weird to me.

Is the other event moving towards the hero? Or is it stationary?

What are you trying to accomplish here?


My game is like a pacaman stage. The hero is running around, trying to avoid the ghost. The ghost automatic movement is set to "approach". It's chasing the player. Sometimes the player has to press the action button, sometimes not.

1) what maker?

2) you need to set it to On Collision if in 2k3, or Event Touch if on VX. This will ensure it's when the event touches the player, not when the player touches the event.

What engine?


Thank you Narcodis, I am using VX. Sorry, should have been more specific.

Player touch problem

In my game I want an event to be triggered when it touches the player. Although, player touch event trigger only works when the player is facing the event? Can this be changed?

VX for dummies, accepting requests

I am looking in to making some tutorials for VX, beginner stuff. But I need some requests. Is anyone new to VX? Did you just open up the program and have no idea what to do? Post tutorial requests here and I will be happy to help. :)

One of these days I have to get someone skilled with making videos to make some for my games, and paste them on the youtubes. (I suck at it and make terrible quality videos).


Brickroad. The real one.
