Seismic Charges

Ever watch Star Wars II? You'll probably remember the seismic charges Jango Fett leaves behind for Obi Wan in the asteroid chase scene. I made a copy of that in gamemaker, for a GMClans competition.

I spent way too long making the asteroids cut in half I think. Oh, there's also a rare bug which causes the game to freeze, I don't know how to fix it. Just in case, if it happens, do Ctrl-Alt-Del, go to processes, and end the process named "seismic_charge.exe."

What happens if you clone Obi Wan? You get Obi Two Kenobi!

…Yeah.

I completly forget what else I was going to say. Oh well, it probably wasn't important.

I'm sorry, but SW2 was such a dissappointment that I aready forgot almost anything from it.

As for the example - first it looked nice, then it started to work slower and slower, then the graphics began to screw up and then it all froze, my computer seemed dead, and I wasted several minutes trying to ctrl-alt-del your program into oblivion amongst the lag :P

Yeah it lagged up eventually for me too, I had to alt-f4

Well if the image gets funky, it's bugging! It won't bug if you keep the bombs near the center, or at least not rarely. If you see big white squares or the same image repeating lots, and it's slowing sown, shut it down BEFORE it freezes.

I'm still working on the bug. This kind of stuff happens when you push the limits of GM's capabilities, which I'm doing more and more often now.

Also, you can't dump 50 bombs at once and expect it to be fast.

Yeah, the system kinda gets constipated when you do that.
