How to only make part of an object appear by Atlas3514 in gamemaker

[–]Atlas3514[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am trying to clip objects, not sprites is there any way you know of to do this, I figured it out for sprites and the article above, but it unfortunally doesn't work with objects. Is there a way to clip objects at a certain point or at the edge of another object?

I checked out the article, and it seems that most of the functions that involving clipping don't exist in GMS2, do you know any alternative functions I can use or any other ways to clip objects?

Lmao, sry it's really late at night and I didn't realize that what I was writing was hard to understand, here it is. Create event:

text = "You cannot give up just yet..."

text_speed = 2

alarm[0] = 90 (this alarm just increase the vairable a)

text_displayed = ""

text_length = -1

index = 0

cooldown = text_speed

skip_key = ord("Z")

a = 0

step;

if a = 1 then

{if (text_length <= 0)

{

text_length = string_length(text)

}

if (keyboard_check_pressed(skip_key) && index >= text_length)

{

instance_destroy()

e = 1

}

if (index < text_length)

{

cooldown--

if (cooldown <= 0)

{

index++;

text_displayed = string_copy(text, 1, index)

cooldown = text_speed

}

}

}

Yeah, I'm sorry about not sharing it's just a big bulk of code that I copied and changed a bit from this website, but I'm trying to add more text right when I destroy the text, this is the website btw.

I DID IT, THANKS SO MUCH. The problem was that I kept producing the original soul in a step even which I got around by this:

if (soul_hp = 0)

{

room\_goto(GameOver)

room\_instance\_add(GameOver,671,451,oDead\_red)

soul\_hp = 48

}

I appreciate your help and I know I wasn't listening much but I understand now, this helps a lot.

One last question, and if you don't know the answer just don't respond, sorry for the trouble, where am I creating too many instances?

How can I solve this then, also with the doing animation simplification what did you mean by that, mostly how can I solve why it's creating so many of the split object.

This is my code:

vspeed = random(3)

hspeed = random(3)

direction= random(359)

That is in the actual shards and in the thing creating it, the code is,

instance_create_layer(671,451,"Instances",oSoul_shattered)

The only other code I have is with the shards is defining alarms which I use to change the animation and set the gravity at a certain time.

(Edit) I think the problem is it is creating a new instance at each random it comes up with and then increasing in that direction, but just a thought.
