This section is dedicated to answering the most common questions I've seen people ask in the comments. So, how does this work anyway? 1. Find the sprite "Player" and hit the "costumes" tab. This is where you will create your character. 2. Pick a character to replace with your custom character, or just create a brand new one! 3. Make sure you remember the costume number associated with your character. You'll need this later. 3. Go to the background sprite and hit the "code" tab. Scroll right until you find a very long if-else statement. 4. You should see a bunch of numbers; each one represents a character. Find the number of the character you want to replace, or create a new number. Adding a new one is tricky. 5. If you're adding a new number, copy and paste the last "if-else" and put it to the side. Delete the contents of the last "else" block still attached to the primary super-duper long one. Skip this step if you are just replacing an existing character. 6. Put the script you moved to the side in the empty "else" block you just created. Change the number at the top to match your character. Skip this step if you are just replacing an existing character. 7. Almost done! The variables in your "if-else" control your character's gravity, points, speed, and other special options. Adjust them to your heart's content, but remember not to set any of them too high. 8. Test your character's abilities until you think they're just right. Congratulations, you've made your first custom character! FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: Q: How do I know what to set the variables to? A: Compare your variables to those of other characters. This will give you a sense of the range of values you should stay within. Q: The variables don't do anything to my character! A: Check that you followed the instructions correctly. If your character has no buffs or buffs noticeably different from the ones you set, you likely typed the wrong number in your "if-else". Q: How do I change the on-screen stats? A: Do the same thing you did to create your character and find your number in the costumes of the "Stats" sprite. If you're more technical about design, click the auto-zoom button in the lower right-hand corner of the costume editor and move each text box with the arrow keys while holding Shift to align them properly. Q: The background is all messed up! A: Simple visual bugs can be fixed by double-clicking the flag. If that doesn't work, either the background costumes are too large or your character is too fast.
