How can I make a screen shake?

Plaxopolis

I'm making a mega man-type game, and I want to add a screen shake for a certain part.

2ab_cos_theta

Try just giving everything a script like this:

when I receive [Shake]
change x by (4)
wait (0.03) secs
change y by (3)
wait (0.03) secs
change x by (-2)
wait (0.03) secs
change y by (-6)
wait (0.03) secs
change x by (-2)
wait (0.03) secs
change y by (3)

I'm not sure if this will work, but it might.

if <(username) = [2ab_cos_theta]> then
set [isGeeky] to [true]
end

I'm not sure if this counts as necroposting but,
It worked, so thanks a lot!

Here's a variant that's a bit cleaner:

when I receive [shake v]
repeat (10)
change x by (pick random (-5) to (5))
change y by (pick random (-5) to (5))
wait (0.033) secs
end

It also follows a random sequence instead of following the same sequence every time.

Wouldn't that mean that the shaking would de sync though? Each object would shake in a different way. I think another possible method would be to have a variable that changes randomly a few times a second and have the shake use that value instead.

Gentlemen, THIS is a signature.
