Do you use a specific program?<br /><br />SonnyBonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05839090955064059910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857602588780608098.post-52439275625828160032013-05-13T00:02:01.612-07:002013-05-13T00:02:01.612-07:00I don't want to openly post it here just in ca...I don't want to openly post it here just in case, but you can probably find me in a messangeble site (like reddit, youtubr or mobygames) fairly easy if you google "darkfalzx"DarkFalzXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02942122515572978642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857602588780608098.post-40836059222987893602013-05-12T23:54:12.960-07:002013-05-12T23:54:12.960-07:00No sir - it's not dead.

Oh yeah, THAT! ...Uh, well how about trying to use a physics "switch variable" that you can switch off during room transitions.<br /><br />(This can be used by the physics to enable/disable movement, but continue to store your current physics, if implemented carefully.)<br /><br />Then it would just be a matter of using a map timer to reactivate your physics once the map/level has loaded, using a specially programmed sprite that is off screen.<br />(I did this a few years ago with a castlevania styled game, that had similar gameplay issues.)Icelink256https://www.blogger.com/profile/05714530459991976710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857602588780608098.post-71765220679603186772012-08-13T17:36:44.212-07:002012-08-13T17:36:44.212-07:00Unfortunately I have abandoned the idea of a custo...Unfortunately I have abandoned the idea of a custom map format. I am unsure if you are familiar with game maker script, but the way the room switching is done in it isn't exactly straight-forward, and it's hard to pinpoint at which point in code execution it actually happens. For my rooms to work I'll have to pinpoint, or account for when the room switch occurs, then quickly generate a room and load its tiledata... it would also have to happen relatively quick - and that has also been an issue... Bahhh - brings back the frustrating memories:)DarkFalzXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02942122515572978642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4857602588780608098.post-21470531554601225852012-08-13T14:19:38.275-07:002012-08-13T14:19:38.275-07:00Hey!
