🔟Health

Give an asset health with settings to kill or respawn the asset.

GAME MAKER 0.9 MULTIPLAYER ENHANCEMENT

The Health component is now available in multiplayer games. Combat is still in development. In multiplayer:

  • Avatar health is affected through the Health message, Power Up component, fall damage (relative to distance fallen), lack of oxygen, and block damage. The Avatar's health component is found under Player settings.

  • Object health (characters, props, etc.) is affected through messages and block damage. This page details an object's Health component.
