    Can you do one for destructible environments so it shakes but still stays in place in a physics room with physics collisions. That would be dope also make it so the wall or object switches sprites to create the effect of being destroyed. I tried to create the effect by stacking objects and it works I just feel like there is a better way to do it. Tks your videos are great.

    Do you do the same thing for when you want the player to knock back after getting hit by an enemy?

    Thanks for this video! 😀
    What I was doing was- Collision event with <insert object here>, jump to relative position -30x,-30y  which only made it jump in that direction, and if you were on the opposite side of that, the enemy would fly through you and do alot more damage that it was supposed to, this helped alot 😛

    what I put in the step event to make this a backwards dash for my player

    /// Player back dash 
    if (dir=1) and keyboard_check_released(vk_shift)
    { 
       {
        hspeed = -8 
        sprite_index = evade_right  
        alarm[1] = 15;}
    }
        else{
        
    if (dir=-1) and keyboard_check_released(vk_shift)

        {
        hspeed = 8
        alarm[0] =15;}
    }

    if hspeed = 8{
        sprite_index = evade_left} 
        
    if hspeed = -8{
        sprite_index = evade_right}

    I really appreciate this tutorial and I wanted to expand on it. I combined this tutorial and your platformer-AI-chasing tutorial. The basic idea of what I did was direction=obj_bullet.direction. and speed=obj_bullet.speed. This way the enemy doesn't need to be chasing you. He can be roaming. The problem is that if the enemy is knocked into a wall at an angle, the it doesn't move at all. I want it to slide along the wall. Think you could help?

    its the same way it works here, instead of collision with bullet, you need to add block collision with player and set the alarm so that you wont get blown off the screen.

    Can you make a knockback tutorial that works for a 2D Platformer? Like if a character touches an object he gets knocked back up and in the opposite direction he was traveling in?

    Thanks, I've implemented the knockback in my Step movement function for the player, so it doesn't set a direction, just increments the player's movement until an alarm told the step event to stop the knockback. It works, and even though it's a bit of a hack (bullets from very different directions will cause it to move back and forth, I'll keep it for now).
    Also, I should have mentioned that my game has 360 rotating movement, so only 8 directions wouldn't work. Thanks though.

    Yes, Search on my channel "8 Direction Movement" and use that type of movement! I also have a zombie game series that shows how to make a top down game with that movement.

    I'm trying to give my player knockback in a top down shooter, but whenever I knock it back, the player's direction instantly switches to the colliding bullet's direction. I want the player's movement to be in that direction, but the player's direction itself to not change. Basically, I'm using the "set direction and speed of motion" D&D (blue arrows icon), but I want to set the motion's direction, not the player's direction, if that makes sense. Any help?

    I seriously spent all day trying to get this effect in a game I'm working on using a bunch of convoluted processes like 'jump to position's and in the end it was way easier. Thanks.

    Can you make a tutorial or tell me how to check if an object is in the view, just like checking if it is in the room but instead of the whole room, just the view. I perfer the drag and drop method because it is easier. tahnks

    well the M should be lowercase, the S in speed should be lowercase and there should be no [0] in it. The A in alarm should be lowercase. And you should have an end ) after the mp_potential_step.
