Re: How do you make a platform?

You could make a very basic platform by editing the sprite and filling in the bottom part black.

Just make a new sprite and draw your own. If you want a more complex type of platform you could try the Spriter's Resource. It has a lot of sprites for you to use.

So here goes...
It's a basic script, but it'll do.

<when green flag clicked>

<forever><if><touching color[ groundcolor ]>
<change y by( 4 )>
<else>
<change y by( -4 )>
<end>
<end>


So... knock yourself out!

Oh, and a tip: for movement, use this script:

<when green flag clicked>
<forever>
<if><key[ left arrow ]pressed?>
<change x by( -1)>
<end>
<if><key[ right arrow ]pressed?>
<change x by( 1)>
<end>
<end>

Use 1, but make sure your movement left to right is 1 as well as up and down so it offsets itself
