wrap issue

I hope I can explain what I mean <img src="smileys/smiley9.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

I observe a strange issue. I have 3 clouds, they are moving and should wrap at the end of the layout. Actually it works fine.

until a while , then it do stop working. I mean during the author time. I have not changed at these events and should also work, but wrap behaviors do not not work more. When I created my clouds new then it works again for a while.   <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Works for me.

Probably you're doing something strange somewhere with your clouds.

Also instead of setting to a low float variable (0.1 px) you should rather try a formula containing dt.

Try "dt * 6" or another value.

With dt the same issue. What I mean, it work for me too, but after few times not more.

strange too, now wrap one cloud , but the another not , although all have the same event and so.

Probably you're doing something strange somewhere with your clouds.

these are normal png files

very strange for me <img src="smileys/smiley29.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Post your capx.

In my example you can let clouds go on forever and they always wrap.

Yes I see your exemple ,and I think it not different as my

anyway here is my project

Before that was all working. Now is only one cloud working I do not understand why not more all clouds do wrap.

I used clouds in my last demo game posted on these forums "Bomber", and all i did was use the bullet behaiour on them and set them at low speeds. And added Wrap and they seem to work fine.

Whether bullet dt or move forward, my clouds do not wrap more after some time later.

I have not idea why .

This copy of your capx works OK. I just changed the z-order.

Here a video so you can see only cloud No2 works . I do not understand why <img src="smileys/smiley5.gif" border="0" align="middle">

It is bizarre. I re-amended your .capx and added some code. It showed the clouds X-position getting stuck just off screen, implying perhaps a bug somewhere, maybe in the Wrap behavior.

I moved the Origin to the far left, and added boundary check and it appears to work for me now.

I moved the Origin to the far left,

hooray, this seems to solve the problem Thank you zenox98!!!<img src="smileys/smiley42.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

<img src="smileys/smiley9.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> maybe stupid question, but I do not know, where I can find boundary check?

I'm not certain why it didn't work. It should, but it seems to me that Wrap has a problem dealing with more than one instance when they leave the layout. Just guessing :/

My hack involved setting the Origin to the far left, then checking when the cloud reached the far right, and resetting it's x-position to '0-cloud.width' so it starts again. That's all I meant by boundary check. The boundary at the far right of the screen.

I don't think this is a good enough solution, but at least it works :)

...That's all I meant by boundary check. Ah, I understand

Thank you again ! <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

I don't think this is a good enough solution, but at least it works :)

I thought I'm stupid <img src="smileys/smiley36.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

I'll move the subject to "bugs" even though you have a workaround, to be sure ashley takes a look at it when he comes back.

It is indeed strange that clouds stop this way after a while.

Maybe an uncommon combination of events or something.

Also nice art on the example, I'm curious to see the game a little more advanced (with actual gameplay).

Forgot to mention, the way it works now, there is no need for the Wrap behavior.
