losing my mind over a small moving platform
ONE FUCKING PLATFORM, ONE GOD DAMN MOVING PLATFORM IS CAUSING HELL
I have been sorta in secret working on a new original commercial game, that has the art style of those early flash games and is similar to portal flash one of the greatest 2d games ever made, now i have been working on an alpha for a while now, so that i can figure out what i should change and what bugs to fix. It will be a CLOSED ALPHAâ„¢ so you all won't probably get it. But while working on Level 7 i had a small idea, let me recreate the moment here
and so i tried that and guess what? IT WORKS YAY WOW SO SMART but then i put a box onto a spawner, and it stopped working. Shit i thought, but then i put the second box onto the button for the platform, and BRAVO IT WORKED AGAIN which is something i didn't want. Because you needed to put 2 boxes on one pressure plate for it to work, which is fucking stupid because the rest of the game you only have to place one but nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo this time for this FUCKING SSTUPID PLATFORM YOU HAVE TO PLACE 2 i was seriously so angry, why cant i fix this problem? I asked my gdevelop friends for help, they couldn't help because they have lives while i play cruelty squad every waking moment. AND ALSO, THERE ARE NO TUTORIALS FOR WHAT I WAS TRYING TO DO, sure moveable platforms do technically exist, but they go up and down without the player having to do shit. I felt like sisyphus, tortured forever. Until....... discord user nice cream in the fireside discord server was like "Ey what if you made the code be if the pressure plate collides with the box" i was like "that wouldnt wo-" MOTHERFUCKER IT WORKED!!!! WHAT THE FUCK WHAT SENSE DOES THAT MAKE!???!??!?!???!? anyways so i am going to finish it. Goodbye for now..
