hi, I'm trying to make “asteroids” the old aracade game, and i cant get the Loop around thigny to work!

You want to make a game where asteroids can fall is it?
If that is what you want,
here’s the script:

when green flag clicked

forever
wait (pick random (4) to (10)) secs
create clone of [myself v]
end

Then put the script for the clone.
Maybe add falling motions by changing y by 10 maybe…

If I’m helping, Thank You
If I’m not helping, Tell me.

Do you mean going off one side and coming in at the opposite side?

You might want to take a look at @RokCoder's Asteroids Tutorial:

Something like this may help:

forever
if <(x position) < [-235]> then
set x to (234)
end
if <(x position) > [235]> then
set x to (-234)
end
if <(y position) < [-175]> then
set y to (174)
end
if <(y position) > [175]> then
set y to (-174)
end
end

But you may need to tweak some numbers

Yes, that is what i mean, like the clasic aracade game

I have tried that already… the problem is that it glitches sometimes and for some reason some of the edges dont work well. my game requires up arrow to move forward, and left and right arrows to turn. hope that information helps!

Shouold just be a case of fine tuing the values. Please try it and share if it isn'#t working so we can identify the problem.

Hi, i have not idea about you expect it must look… you just try this:



Sorry,i forgot to say that those x and y coordinates can vary depending sprites dimensions.
