I want to make it so that the player does some platforming and touches the portal to progress ahead in the level

You could possibly just have 2 portals, the first is the one that triggers the second one. When the player hits the first one it extracts the other portal’s position and goes there.

Check collisions?

It’s still not working can you please help? The portals are in level 2.

Alright so, for extractors you have to select the object, which only works for one level since when you clone a type is adds a new object each time. Also, the portals HAVE to be in your level, if they aren’t they are no longer and object and you can’t extract from them. A super good way to do things like this is to use the portal object to set a global. You can name the globals whatever you want, but all you need is 4. I’d recommend “portal x” and “portal y”, then for the 2nd 2 just add “2” to the end. You can extract the portal positions and set the globals, then just have it so when the player collides with one it gets the global value. This will let it work in between levels and with multiple objects.

How do I do the player code that’s a lot and I don’t know the time on the timers

It’s one second, and you just connect the lines how I did-
Also it’s not a lot of code and can be done in 5-10 minutes if you took the time to actually get it done lol
I did it on mobile last night in about 1 or 2 minutes so god I hope you can get it done it 10

If you think that’s a lot of code, do not go into the edit menu on my games…

You forgot one little piece…
Also, off topic, but if you like complicated spaghetti… I made this guy this morning…

I added the missing piece but it still takes me to the location of the second portal and leaves me unable to move.

Hmmm… better ask Dino about that. You might need to link your game to him so he can investigate. I haven’t played around with teleporters yet.

Damn, everytime I check this post I’m on mobile. It’s hard to help on mobile, sorry. I’ll just give tips again.
Check colliders, make sure the object is NOT solid but collisions ARE on.

Keep up the great work, I hope that code paid off! Time is dang valuable nowadays.

That is what I did.

Since I have similar (but not identical) code on several other objects already, it’s gotten easy for me to add a new sprite. I have a set order that I do everything in. Add the sprite, add animations (usually at least 1 moving and 1 dying animation), set movements, set collisions with weapons, set collisions with targets, set sprite health, send messages upon sprite death, set weapons to either detonate when colliding with sprite or allow them to pass through sprite, set sprite’s targets to take damage when colliding with sprite, set randoms and timers for variable behaviors, set rarity of collectible items to drop upon sprite’s death, set randoms and timers for spawn rates, set sounds and animations to trigger at the right times, etc. Adjust timers, damage amounts, points, random variables etc. as necessary to keep the enemies “balanced”.
Sounds like a lot of work (and I suppose it is), but the more times I do it, the easier it gets to remember what I’m doing. And even the coding is becoming kind of fun to me, like completing a mini 100 piece puzzle.
