Hello! i'm having multiple problems with on my shooter project,
have a look at this Video, it's a gameplay vid of an arcade game that illustrate some of the problems i'm having.

And i apologise for my english / clarity of what i'm trying to explain. i have very hard times doing this.

I'm using the same script than Here (+  the isActive(object) for optimisation that is not present here) for all objects :

- 1 Player projectile
- 1 Ennemies
- 1 Ennemy projectile

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Problem 1 : Brutal frame drop when player is shooting fast
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

see the player shots ? i believe all single projectiles are OO items spawned every frames, right ?

If i'm trying to do this in maratis, the frame rate drop dramatically

my method :

one hitbox (just a invisible cube), and one graphic item (the projectile)

I'm joining the collision cube with the projectile graphic with :

setParent
OR
follow behavior

Both method works and the result is the same for both methods (same frame drop, no differences)

Note that :

spawning 1 bullet every frame works ok
spawning more than 1 bullet every frame result in hyper frame drop

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Problem 2 : Frame drop when two ennemies of the same type are shooting together
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

See the "tank" who's shooting green projectiles ?

if i'm spawning 1 ennemy like that, it will run ok, if i spawn 2 at the same time,
when it starts shooting even if its a very low amount of projectiles (about 10 for each)
frame drop occurs. I believe it's a similiar problem than in problem 1.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Problem 3 : Progressive frame drop when using "for i=1, #projectileList do" in the ennemy script to check whenever there is a collision between the player projectile and the ennemy
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

This one starts to freeze after some time. i would say after 20~ ennemies are spawned.

I had make sure everything in the ennemy script and bullet script
(objects, values, and extra stuff) got deactivated when a collision occurs.

When removing "for i=1, #projectileList do" from the ennemy script, frame drop is gone, but then i cant make collision between player bullet and ennemy

So right spawning multiple projectiles very fast makes the game freeze and testing collision between OO projectiles/ennemies make the game freeze

I don't know what to do, any ideas ?

Hello, i have a problem about sound cloning, here's my set-up :

Two scenes, Scene-1 and SNDscene.
All sounds are on SNDscene.

I'm using sounds in a OO way, so i can play a whole collection with just few lines,
for playing i'm cloning the sound from SNDscene to Scene-1,
and i'm setting the setPosition argument to place it to the object i want.

The problem is, after a while (120~ uses), it stop playing for good.
in some other projects it stops playing after 15~ uses

here's a project to show the problem : Soundbug
(this one stops sounds after 120~ uses)

Press these keys to play sound at :
4 = left
8 = front
6 = right
2 = back

Any idea what's going on ?
