Rebound / Immunity after taking Damage.

If objLink runs into objEnemy, objLink gets hurt, bounces back, and cannot be hurt again for a set amount of time.
How to go about doing this? The bounce back needs to be set by Direction, 90, 180, 270 or 360/0. Also, (I am not very "experianced" with GM8's timer/timeline system) how would you set it so that
when you collide with objEnemy,
Hurt=true, therefore starting a timer, during which objLink cannot be "hurt"
then when the timer's up, turn Hurt to false?

I tried using a timeline, but it didn't do anything. Link would take 1/4 heart in damage, and become invincible.

Any suggestions?

I would use a numerical variable 'Invincible' and give it the value of the number of frames Link can't be hurt.

In the step event

Code: [Select]

if(invincible) invincible -= 1;

When invincible is 0, then it also evaluates as false. 1 and higher evaluates as true.

If you need to find the direction that Link should be bouncing in, use

point_direction(x1,y1,x2,y2)

where x1,y1 is the x and y of the enemy and x2,y2 is the x and y of Link. This will give you the direction from the enemy to Link, in degrees, which is also the direction Link should be bouncing in.

Hope this helps.
