Hello,
I am fooling around trying to make my own character sprite. My game is in 800x600 32-bit color. I have background that meets these specifications, and my character sprite is 170 pixels tall. I give the character a starting position at the bottom of the screen. It starts there like it should, buuuuut....there is also a copy of the first sprite image in the center of the screen which stays there while I walk around. Anyone else familiar with this problem?
If my problem is not clear I can upload a screenshot for your viewing pleasure.
I'm guessing that you've checked "This is the player character" for your new character (as you're controlling him).
The first sprite (original character) probably still has "Start in Room" box filled in with your first room, thus that character shows up there. Just change that number and he should vanish.
Ahh...that's it. I changed the other char's starting room to something else. Is there any way to delete the other character? There doesn't seem to be a delete button and right clicking doesn't seem to bring up any delete option.
You're stuck with it!
You're best bet is to load a new one OVER the old one. To replace him.
