Re: Combat Help
1. Just use broadcasting blocks. Every time the sprites receive the messages, they will take their turn.
2. I'm not sure how you would do a meter, but here is what you could do instead:
Make two variables for health- one on each of the top corners. The left one is the first guy's health, and the right one is the other guy's. Once you have those variables in the corners, right click on them on the stage and click, "large readout." Then add the triggers to change those variables whenever the player is hit. Glad to be of assistance!
