Positioning Help

[Hadoabuser]

I don't understand why the position of an explod moves even tho the root is in the same area, can somebody explain this.

All this time and you still haven't learned you have to post your code if you want anyone to help you ?

[Hadoabuser]

Yea, I keep 4getting. I'm used to just reading issues and going from there, without code.

Editing first post.

[Hadoabuser]

Ok here goes.

For what I'm saying to make sense plz watch.
Falcon Punch

As u see in the end when/if p2 dies an explod is made using the liedead animaiton and TFS riding the dino animation happens, the last set of pics show why the position is a problem.

The way I asked in the first post was just for somebody to explain to me why an explod's position shifts even tho the player that created it always ends up in the same spot. The first pics show p2's screen position b4 getting put into a custom state. The second shows where p2 is at the start of the custom state.

[Cyanide]

well, your description of the actual fault still leaves a bit to be desired as that's still reading as gibberish to me. WHICH explod is broken? the falcon? the dinosaurs? the sonic riding a dinosaur? the flat sonic? the giant BG image?

[State 2033, PosAdd]
type = PosSet
trigger1 = !Time
x = 110*Facing
y = -110
If you're facing to the left, this will always put you in the same place on the X axis. Anything else you're going to need to describe your fault a little more concisely.

[Hadoabuser]

Crap still not making sense.

The explod at the end, the one made by p2 (the flat sonic). The position of this is the problem.

The position of this seems to change depending on where p2 is at the start of the move. Thats what I'm not understanding.

[Cyanide]

Left, right, up, down? If you're unsure of which direction it's going, please confirm that with some smaller numbers on it's position. X would be my bet.

P2 is always in the same place no matter what according to the code. X will be -110 or 110. Does anim 2033 make him disappear?

[Hadoabuser]

Great idea. It moved about 300-330 pixels to the left, somewhere around there.   Well now that I know the position isn't random I can use either an ifelse statement or some equation to make it act correctly, I'll try tomorrow.

Yea thats why I'm not getting why the explod moves, and no its the "getting stomped on" animation, just sprites 5040,0 and 5040,20 in a loop.

Turns out I was so focused on the position "shifting" I failed to notice that the problem was the postype, it needed to be p1 instead of p2.
