how do I make a actor shake?
I have an actor that needs to shake for 1 second after its clicked on. not the camera the actor.
thanks.

    You could Animate it from left to right to left etc....

    any way to do it with out animation?

    You could probably make it glitch in some way and make it shake :P
    But i think animating it would b the way ( one pic is more to the right , then the next is more to the left etc.)

    And put a timer behavior under the animate behavior with ''after'' 1 sec and a destroy behavior in that

    You could make it move to to self.position.x-5 for .2 of a second and then self.position.x+5 for .2 of a second multiple times.

    Check out Tshirtbooth's excellent site: http://gshelper.com/ Almost certain his shaking demo is on there somewhere.... it's somewhere...

    I think the following is based upon Tshirtbooth's orbiting demo. Its orbiting around a very small area. But it gives the impression of shaking. The 240 and 160 are just scene coordinates. Change them to whatever you want.

    When Shake = true
    ….Timer: Every .025 seconds
    ……..Change Attribute: self.Position.X To: 4*cos( self.Time *1000%360)+240
    ……..Change Attribute: self.Position.Y To: 1*sin(self.Time*1000%360)+160

    Hi RT, I seem to rememberTSB's shaking demo being somewhat simpler than that; moving x and y coords in .1 second, one after the other... your example seems impressive tho'! :-)

    Yes -- this is a total copy and paste job. It think it was from a demo of how to make an object orbit (by Tshirtbooth). I used it for shaking because it had a kind of 'orbital sander' action to it. It was more circular than say a vibration. So, basically I reset the parameters so that it 'orbits' in a very small area (like 3 or 4 pixels).

    What about alternating rotations? Rotate left for 0.02 sec, then rotate right for 0.02 sec, and repeat. Or is that not possible?

    As mentioned t-shirt booth has a tutorial on making the screen shake. Im sure this can be adjusted slightly to make an actor appear to shake instead...
