I don't want to explain it all right now, because I actually have a project due tomorrow that I have to work on, but next time you make a world, I can help you to make the firing better if you want.

Ill start somthing and i would really want you to change my method to your way. Ill save you time by starting it

Here is the example. The bullet is visible so you can see it. Its not in the gun, like i make the bullets in the gun in my games

Really cool game can't wait for the next... x_X

Thanks. Im working on this one even more so please wait for the contest version. Its so much better. It will blow you away!!!!!!!!

Im worried about da sounds

Ok, I made it so that there are less methods inside of the events bar itself, so I created a world method or 2. I also added a penguin and made it so that you can shoot the penguin to test my collision detection method called "enemyDie". This method is called every time the bullet is fired, and it repeats a collision detection check 30 times every time a bullet is fired instead of checking infinite times at all times even when gun is inactive. The die method though is not a very good example, as there is only 1 enemy, and although I used lists within it, it would be hard to add more enemies because of the variable checks I put to the method (for example a variable to make sure the penguin is alive or not).

Its good but i was wondering if you fixed the problem of you shoot the penguin but the bullet does not hit him. Are you sure this will fix the frame rate of the game?

[jediaction]

I tried redoing it and the whole game stopped working

This will not fix the WHOLE frame rate of the game, but it will help to reduce it a bit. If you want to keep the infinite loop in (as long as there are not many parts to that loop) then its fine to have that one, but if you already have more than 3 other infinite loops that you cannot continue without, you should have this method in for shooting. The main thing though to reduce lag is to get rid of as many infinite loops as possible.

You probably messed with something in the lists, making it create an error. Try to make it so that the statements you right make sense in Alice, or else you might get a world-stopping error.

Its running 6 frames a second. I need to to run at least 20

Your new game? Well if you upload it to a website like http://www.sendspace.com/ and send me the download link, I can take a look at it and maybe see if I can make it to faster.

No i need to do it on my own not some one do it for me. Its better to learn
