GameMaker - Asteroids - Part C



1. The only difficulty I had when making the game was that sometimes one asteroid would just disappear from the screen so that once I destroy all the asteroids, I end up with 800 points and the game just stays like that. Another problem I had was that when I added code for the player death, for some reason everytime the player made contact with the asteroid, the asteroid would get destroyed.

2. The problem with the disappearing asteroid was solved by changing the "Outside Room" event to a "Step" event. For the player death, I had forgotten to set the "Self, Other, Object" option to other, because the code was in the asteroid object so it had to apply the the other object in the game which was the spaceship.

3. Some unique changes I made was that I changed the spaceship and actually added a picture to it and also changed the death images. Another change was that I added a background.
