    Homing attack is fairly simple to conceptualize. I wrote some notes down when I was trying to work it out in my head, they may help you in some way. This isn't anything but a rough outline. I only partially proved it.

    1. Check proximity of an enemy (or object, if you want some sort of targetable object) compared to Sonic's in positive and negative x and y. If close enough, continue. Else, air dash.
    2. Run through all objects in a level. Compare that object's ID to the range of enemy IDs (or whatever you want to target).
    3. Move towards the enemy's position. You can calculate the slope between Sonic and the object with a simple formula, but that's rather rudimentary. Curving into it needs some trig functions, maybe sine?

    I can help with a level editor if you need this. I've made a mapper and format for my own game. Drop me a PM if you're interested. Great work, we need more projects like this so people stop spouting shit about how GM is terrible. Its not. Idiot 12 -year-olds make bad games with it.

  3. In Topic: Running Mac OSX on a PC

    I've had some experience with this:
    1. I'd like to make it clear that what you are doing is violating the EULA for Mac OS X. Get a Mac, for serious.
    2. Make sure you have an SSE3 CPU. Pretty much any new Intel processor.
    3. Running in a virtual machine is rather unstable, I don't suggest it.

    That's pretty much as far as I got when I realized building a hackintosh is better, and a genuine Mac even more so.

    Your nickname starts with E, so you have nothing to worry about. Usernames in the A-L range are safe. The ones in the M-Z range, on the other hand...

    Now that is bullshit. I know my ass ain't safe at all.

    I knew it.

    Hey guys!

    We had no idea Sega was working on their just-announced Project Needlemouse. No kidding: a total coincidence.

    I'll leave the rest of the speculation up to you...


    About a day too late, lol. wink.png

    If we want more details, we're just gonna have to be patient.

    That's what I get for not reading 50 pages. :U
