Goofy Tower Defense

@011830-0a42ef84
Did you forget to share?
@info-creaticode I fixed it. Right now they target the fastest since I’ve learned how to do that. How do you make them target the first enemy? Also, is there anything I can add to make it smoother? This game is planning on being a wave game and there are only 3 units right now for development examples.
Edit: Click the white circle and type “/give” in the upper left for extra money. This is mainly to see what the revolver does.
Edit2: I’m also planning on adding an auto-wave start
Edit3: I made the optional wave start, but idling the characters is a bit difficult with the way I created the game. They do manage to kill the first enemy before the others spawn, so they idle the entire time and don’t shoot, so I had to time it. I think I found a way to get around it though. (Edit4: I did manage to fix it)Edit5
: I’m also going to make an upgrader for the units along with placing multiples of the same unit.note: you may need to click the flag a couple of times because the units or “start wave” don’t always work properly.
Please help all my projects are 3000+ blocks

@011830-0a42ef84 You can utilize clone id or use different methods like store metadata about each enemy in a table to give them higher priority to be targeted first. For smoothness maybe use 2d physics? I think saving data with cloud variables or databases would be epic for this type of game as well.

@jeffreyrb03-gmail Yeah, I’ve been thinking about that. Would there have to be a boundary and it’s like
If “[{unit} is in {boundary}],” then
“don’t place”

?@011830-0a42ef84 you could use <touching color(color)> in an if block so prolly yeah

@jeffreyrb03-gmail I changed it to “If touching color” still doesn’t work fsr tho.

?@011830-0a42ef84 nice profile change. also i took a look at your code and its a bit complicated and messy to me. My suggestion is that you utilize widgets for some things. For example, you dont need sprite2, sprite4, and sprite8. You could just make some button widgets in the stage. And even in normal Scratch, you could just have one button sprite for those 3 sprites, make it change costume, move, and clone itself, and then when self clicked just use an if costume = 1 then buy revolver and if costume = 2 then buy dj or whatever

@jeffreyrb03-gmail Could you do that for the test and just send it to me? I would implement it in my project and credit you. I’m really only good at character design/animation, and how they shoot/move.
Also, do you have any enemy/unit suggestions? If so please list and explain it to me
I’m also planning on making moving units, as well.

@011830-0a42ef84 Ok. Ill try to change your code but you should also try to make comments in places to explain what your code does since I have no idea what one of the sprites does but dw I’ll figure it out

@jeffreyrb03-gmail @011830-0a42ef84 I moved everything initialization related (like setting variables and the backdrop) to the Stage, deleted all button sprites and replaced them with widgets, by making buttons shop1, shop2, shop3, and cheatsgiver, renamed the sprites to tell you what they are, and I made the /give command better so that you can now just type “/give 500” to give yourself 500 cabbage.
Edit: I also changed something that took 5 seconds to be just 2 seconds since i think thats too long of a wait
