How to make an actor flying in the scene?

GuaveMedia

Hey,

I have a bee flying around in my scene ( random,) but how do I set the rule like that the
bee never can leave the scene, because yet, after a certain time the bee moves out of the scene

thx Alex

you Can tell the Bee actor to not go outside the Max X and Y of the scene (if greater than, say, 500 reverse direction or something like that)

but how to do when using the behavior accelerate?

GuaveMedia

There is only the choice to use accelerate or? But how to do?

Please help

Accelerator is one rule but a separate rule just says don't go beyond x or y of the scene or combine them. If accelerating right and X is greater than 350 then Accelerate left. Or set a wrap on the scene to make the bee go out one side and in the other. OR make collide-able borders outside the scene and if the be hits it tell it to reverse acceleration - lots of things to try.

Wrap !

Wrap is certainly one solution. I find it a bit restricting though.

I set up 'walls' on the outside edges of the screen, then in every actor I want to wrap, I tell it to change its X position if it hits one of these walls.

This gives you a bit more leeway as you can decide on an actor by actor basis what will wrap!

@Alex0407

SingleSparq has the right idea - it may be a little difficult though as you're using acceleration. You might try just using 'move' and increasing the speed over time, possibly resetting it when you change its position after hitting a wall.

Hope that helps!

Okey just tried to use 'move' with random but it doesn't work,

so I just want to move an actor a little bit around, to make it more difficult to touch,
thats all...

isn't there a more easier way?

thx
