Adding a trail behind an actor.

Hello GS community!

Thanks to your amazing help I have made so much progress creating my own game, and I am almost ready to let it loose on the app store :).

But I have one last hurdle to jump, and I wonder if you could help me out...

As an in-app purchase in my game, I want to allow the user to purchase trails to, well, trail behind the actor as they move through the scene.

I have worked out how to add in-app purchases, but how do I actually make a trail?

If you could write any answers in a noob friendly format that would be great :) .

Thanks for your time, have a great day!

    You can try and use particles. :)

    Using a timer, spawn a small actor. Experiment with how often (every 0 seconds, every 0.2 second, etc) you spawn.
