![]() When beginning to make your own behaviors, you will be helped along by studying existing behaviors. If you enjoyed playing with legos, you’ll probably like this coding approach as well. It simply involves drag-and-dropping code blocks and setting their properties when required. Together, they make up the “brains” of a game, handling all interactions that occur in the world.Ĭreating a behavior in Stencyl can be quite fun with its visual programming language. Here you go our final SWF: Hello Stencyl World Part 3įirst off this is how the Stencylpedia defines “behavior”īehaviors are reusable, configurable “abilities” that you attach to Actor Types or Scenes. “HUD” is a defined here as a scene behavior which has an attribute named “Enemy Count.” Once “Enemy Count” equals zero the level ends: ![]() “Pace” listens to two events: “collision with a ‘Turner'” event which triggers a change in directionĪnd “updated” event which gives “Pronger” its speed. The “Pace” behavior has an attribute named “Turn” to control the timing of the reversal of direction, without it, “Pronger” will repeatedly flip directions upon colliding with a “Turner”. ![]() Here we place the “Turners” to mark the gaps between platforms: Important: “Turner” is a sensor (set in the “Collision” tab) to “detect collisions without producing a response.” This is the “Hide” behavior attached to “Turner”: To create the “Pace” behavior we need two things: (1) an object that will mark where to turn back and (2) the code that will allow the “Pronger” to do so.įor the marker, we will create an actor called “Turner” – a black square whose sprite we will hide during execution. Let’s start by coding in a new ability for “Pronger” – pacing back and forth then we will make a basic Heads Up Display (HUD) that will show the level’s instructions and end state finally, we will detect when the player has accomplished the level’s objective thereby ending the level. ![]()
