I finished my puzzle game. It became really short because I'm out of triggers. There must be a more efficient way of programming but I don't see it yet. I've put it in the zone. If it's good enough then please add it to the program. |

If it's faster when static than when scrolling, this means that scrolling is done in software and not in hardware if I am not mistaken. Also the fact that is faster when faster CPU is another indication.

One question, is it not possible to have more than one timer variable?
Because i try to set 2 "timer" variables and the 2nd one is not working when activated? It is set as timer on variables. |

More features on my mind:
When do "something", add trigger "change position x or y "+ 16" for example. This way you can do a game like frogger, move a block each time. Fix bullet position- instatiate at exact height you want. Fix scrolling issues that is very slow. Add trigger when something then "scroll to position x,y". This way you can make a moving pattern. Add animated tiles with 4 frames maximum. Add trigger to compare enemy position x or y with player position x or y. Example trigger "if player pos_x=enemy pos_x".....So e.g. if an enemy is above your head he will Dodge a bullet to you. Add object property "solid" so you can use it as moving platform. Add map autoscroll feature. |

Thanks for the suggestion list, I certainly will add some of these items in version 5.5.
Maybe there are a couple of features that you can use Code:
Add trigger to compare enemy position x or y with player position x or y. Code:
Add map autoscroll feature |

Hi guys. Regestrated especially for redpill. Also joined the fb Group. Realy like what ive seen so far. I LOVE my Amiga <3 Childhood Amiga A500 and now my A1200 (030/128 MB) Keep up that great work Zener!!
So over all these years i wanted to make an Amiga game. When Amos came out i was to young. Later i wanted to start with Backbone. But i realy dont like all that games/perfomance! Now with redpill i feel this could be the right time... It should be a "simple" platform game with NO scrolling. Each Screen ist one stage/level. Inspired by the game Henry´s House from C64 and Henry´s House from Amiga (PD/freeware) Is there an manual existing for redpill? Or only later from from Version 1.x? Ive seen that few yt-videos from this thread of course. Any tips/advices for me to start? Of course except try, try, try.... I will do that Best regards Stallone |

Thank you Stallone!
Currently there is no manual for RedPill, just the readme, the game examples and the videos people are making. It is something that will come in the future when most of the features are implemented and we move to the Beta stage. The types of games you want to do are certainly possible with RedPill, my suggestion is to start with this video [ Show youtube player ] |

When there is a new release you can make a new folder or just overwrite your old RedPill, as you wish.
Games are in the projects folder, to run a game simply click the RedpillPlayer and then select the game (.pill file) you want to run |

I have a problem with using my background picture in the level editor.
I'm using latest RedPill v0.5.5. I have a background picture from my game that I converted to 320x200 and 320x256 32 colors. I'm using A1200 030 50Mhz with 64MB RAM. The problem, after setting up Screen Setup to ECS 32 Colors, removing Rainbow stuff, enabling mouse control. I added my background picture in the level editor/edit map. Loading the picture is successful when starting new project. When I press play, the background picture is split in half and garbled, sometimes causing crash and yellow screen. I also tried to load another game and replacing their existing background with mine, that caused my screen to freeze and no mouse movement. I used PPaint to convert the graphics from PNG to IFF. Any ideas? Thanks Edit: After changing to 16 colors, the picture was stable, but looking bad, so it looks like 32 color mode is not working well...?
