Scratch

If by "take cover" you mean get behind a wall, you could either make it a new costume and after a few seconds the cat/mascot switches to the new costume and it looks like he is taking cover. Second way is to make the cat/mascot be able to move and say an enemy was shooting at you, you could make it so the enemy won't shoot when your behind (maybe a certain color wall would help?) the wall. This might be hard scripting but I think you can pull it off.

I guess that helps a little bit, I still want to figure out how to move in and out of cover while enemy troops shoot at me in a fulent in and out motion. Thanks for the help, but it just wasn't what I was looking for.

If you want the bullets to stop moving when the hit the walls (is this right?), try this for the bullets:

when I Receive [enemy_shoot_1 v]
go to [enemy_1 v]
point towards [main_sprite v]
show
turn cw (pick random (-5) to (5)) degrees
repeat until <<touching [main_sprite v]?> or <touching [wall v]?>>
move (10) steps
end
if<touching[main_sprite v]?>
change [health v] by (-1)
end
hide

Or do you want the sprite to literally get smaller near cover?  I have a project that I made a while ago that I could upload if you want that.  It's kind of complicated though.

This is what I was looking for, I'll test it out and let you know if I will be using it.
