Using Stamp Tool for Cloning Opacity Fade?
Hi 
Was wondering if I could use the Stamp tool to make a trail of 3 clones, each with a lower opacity than the previous....even going on to setting perhaps 5 clones or 10 clones with a simple number change in the script. 
Thanks!

Re: Using Stamp Tool for Cloning Opacity Fade?
As far as I know, there isn't a way to stamp with the opacity effect yet. 
But, if you mean a trail with just 3 clones behind each other and not stamping across the screen, you could just create 3 or more Sprites and change the ghost effect for each one and adding a script like this to each sprite:
[When green flag pressed]
[Forever]
[Point in direction (direction of Clone 1)]
[Go to (clone 1)
[Move (-1,-2,-3 etc) steps]
You'll need to change the point in direction and go to blocks with each clone though. Eg: The 3rd clone would go to clone 2 and point in clone 2's direction. Hope this helps?

Yeah I wanted to avoid making more sprites since my game seems to be slowing down <_<;
Oh well...nevermind then. Thanks ^^
