How do you make the doors in gamemaker? Do you make them solid? Can you make them open like the ones in Super Metroid or Zero Mission? HELP PLEASE!!!
I don’t use GM, but I know how you can make doors with a similar program, and I’m sure a method like it woudl work.
Give the door three animations–closed open and opening. Set it so that when ‘bullet’ touches ‘door’, ‘door’ plays ‘opening’. When ‘opening’ is finished, play ‘open’. Now Samus can walk through it. Then trigger it so that once Samus goes through it plays Opening in reverse, or make another called Closing, then set it to play Closed.
Set so that when Closed is playing, Samus cannot go through the door.
Bingo.
And this doesn’t belong in graphics.
Are you talking about TGF Daz? It sounds alot like it.
you would only need 2 animations, the opening and closing ones
on the doors creation you would set the image speed to zero, when a bullet collides with the door you would set the image speed back to one so it goes through the opening animation, once the opening animation has finished you would get it to destroy the instance of the door
if there isn’t the possibility that more than one door will be visible on the screen at the same time i would recommend getting it to play the closing animation straight off and get it to switch to the opening animation and set the image speed to zero when the closing animation has finished
_> Yes. I just didn’t say so because most people are like OMFGTGFSUXXORZ when you even mention it.
I dont understand why so much people hate TGF. I am using it for my game
and i have to say it is going pretty well.
It’s a lot easier to use than GM, and not THAT much weaker… I don’t get the hatred either.
Could you post a link to the site, or a download or anything!
ya, cuz i’m pretty good with GM, but if TGF or whatever is easier, i’ll use it. so plz post link
