I'm new to spritekit so this looks like a silly question but I can't figure out. The player (shown in blue circle) can only go above lines and inside the square. I added a joystick, user can go up or down above left line. I want player to be limited to only line so when It comes the left edge, user should move joystick to right. How can I achieve it?
I tried to update player position in override func update(_ currentTime: TimeInterval) function like below to update enum position and check it everytime in move logic;
override func update(_ currentTime: TimeInterval) {
if((player?.position.x)!.rounded() <= self.barra.frame.minX.rounded()){
player?.playerPosition == .left
}
print(player?.position)
}
How I declare square;
let barra = SKShapeNode(rectOf: CGSize(width: 600, height: 300)) //Line
override func sceneDidLoad() {
player = self.childNode(withName: "player") as? Player
player?.physicsBody?.categoryBitMask = playerCategory
player?.physicsBody?.collisionBitMask = noCategory
player?.physicsBody?.contactTestBitMask = enemyCategory | itemCategory
player?.playerPosition = .left
barra.name = "bar"
barra.fillColor = SKColor.clear
barra.lineWidth = 3.0
barra.position = CGPoint(x: 0, y: 0)
self.addChild(barra)
player?.position = CGPoint(x: barra.frame.minX , y: barra.frame.minY)
}
How I move the player;
override func didMove(to view: SKView) {
/* Setup your scene here */
backgroundColor = UIColor.black
physicsBody = SKPhysicsBody(edgeLoopFrom: frame)
moveAnalogStick.position = CGPoint(x: moveAnalogStick.radius + 15, y: moveAnalogStick.radius + 15)
addChild(moveAnalogStick)
moveAnalogStick.stick.color = UIColor.white
//MARK: Handlers begin
moveAnalogStick.beginHandler = { [unowned self] in
guard let aN = self.player else {
return
}
//aN.run(SKAction.sequence([SKAction.scale(to: 0.5, duration: 0.5), SKAction.scale(to: 1, duration: 0.5)]))
}
moveAnalogStick.trackingHandler = { [unowned self] data in
guard let aN = self.player else {
return
}
if(self.player?.playerPosition == .left){
aN.position = CGPoint(x: aN.position.x, y: aN.position.y + (data.velocity.y * 0.12))
}
}
moveAnalogStick.stopHandler = { [unowned self] in
guard let aN = self.player else {
return
}
// aN.run(SKAction.sequence([SKAction.scale(to: 1.5, duration: 0.5), SKAction.scale(to: 1, duration: 0.5)]))
}
//MARK: Handlers end
let selfHeight = frame.height
let btnsOffset: CGFloat = 10
let btnsOffsetHalf = btnsOffset / 2
view.isMultipleTouchEnabled = true
}

I describe as StackOverflow standards the following issue.
Summarize the problem
I have issue about colliding two nodes. One is composed by a crowd and each people is a single item of my crowd defined in the same way (included in a while just to be clear and using index "i" and "j" to create the row of the crowd). I wanted to make disappear once arrive a node (as civilian) to the bottom and going to the top and the crowd remove the civilian spawned along the path. Actually I have this thing and the func tells me that the colliding happens but it didn't 'cause nothing happens and the civilian node captured by crowd it didn't disappear or removed with the removefromparent(). I've got no error messages with my compiler, it works for him. My scope is : detecting node civilian during the path by the crowd and remove this one from the path.
What I've tried
I tried many things to fix this. The first thing is following a lot of tutorials about how Collision Masks etc.. work. I know what they do. But what I've tried it was to make a invisible line for the last line of crowd of people just to see if the problem is the crowd itself and making that if the civilian node arrives to collide the invisible line is like he was in contact with the crowd but it didin't this effect. I followed a lot of tutorial such as HackingWithswift, Youtube tutorials but the procedure for me it's clear but nothing happens (sorry for being repetitive).

Ok, it was fun to recall how all this SpriteKit stuff works :D
First problem you have is node/sprite creation. The solution could be some kind of Factory pattern with more or less abstraction. GameScene doesn't have to know how nodes are initialized/configured. Scene could know only which type of nodes exist, and thats enough to get them ready for use.
//MARK: - Factory
protocol AbstractFactory {
func getNode()-> SKNode
func getNodeConfig()->SpriteConfig
}
class CivilianFactory : AbstractFactory {
// Local Constants
private struct K {
static let size = CGSize(width: 32, height: 32)
static let name = "civilian"
static let color = UIColor.yellow
}
// Here we get Civilian sprite config
func getNodeConfig() -> SpriteConfig {
let physics = SpritePhysicsConfig(categoryMask: Collider.civilian, contactMask: Collider.player | Collider.wall, collisionMask: Collider.none)
return SpriteConfig(name: K.name, size: K.size, color: K.color, physics: physics)
}
func getNode() -> SKNode {
let config = getNodeConfig()
let sprite = SKSpriteNode(color: config.color, size: config.size)
sprite.color = config.color
sprite.name = config.name
sprite.zPosition = 1
if let physics = config.physics {
sprite.physicsBody = SKPhysicsBody(rectangleOf: config.size)
sprite.physicsBody?.isDynamic = physics.isDynamic
sprite.physicsBody?.affectedByGravity = physics.isAffectedByGravity
sprite.physicsBody?.categoryBitMask = physics.categoryMask
sprite.physicsBody?.contactTestBitMask = physics.contactMask
sprite.physicsBody?.collisionBitMask = physics.collisionMask
}
}
return sprite
}
}
Same as this, You will make other "factories" as needed (just copy the factory and change visual/physics data setup). For this example I will make PlayerFactory.
and with next method I will create my nodes:
private func getNode(factory:AbstractFactory)->SKNode{
return factory.getNode()
}
and then just use it like this:
let node = getNode(factory: self.civiliansFactory) // or self.whateverFactory
Here you just provide a factory you want (can be anything that conforms to AbstractFactory), and in return, You get a desired node (You can return here anything that is SKNode). This way, we have hid initialization process, dependencies etc. from outside world (GameScene), and put everything in one place.
So, quite flexible, plus removes a bunch of repeating code from your scene.
And here are config structs for sprites creation:
//MARK: - Sprite Config
struct SpriteConfig {
let name:String
let size:CGSize
let color:UIColor
let physics:SpritePhysicsConfig? // lets make this optional
}
struct SpritePhysicsConfig {
let categoryMask: UInt32
let contactMask: UInt32
let collisionMask:UInt32
let isDynamic:Bool
let isAffectedByGravity:Bool
init(categoryMask:UInt32, contactMask:UInt32, collisionMask:UInt32, isDynamic:Bool = true, isAffectedByGravity:Bool = false){
self.categoryMask = categoryMask
self.contactMask = contactMask
self.collisionMask = collisionMask
self.isDynamic = isDynamic
self.isAffectedByGravity = isAffectedByGravity
}
}
Now some useful extensions that I needed:
//MARK: - Extensions
//Extension borrowed from here : https://stackoverflow.com/a/37760551
extension CGRect {
func randomPoint(x:CGFloat? = nil, y:CGFloat? = nil) -> CGPoint {
let origin = self.origin
return CGPoint(x: x == nil ? CGFloat(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(self.width))) + origin.x : x!,
y: y == nil ? CGFloat(arc4random_uniform(UInt32(self.height))) + origin.y : y!)
}
}
//Extension borrowed from here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/33292919
extension CGPoint {
func distance(point: CGPoint) -> CGFloat {
return abs(CGFloat(hypotf(Float(point.x - x), Float(point.y - y))))
}
}
And the GameScene:
//MARK: - Game Scene
class GameScene: SKScene {
//MARK: - Local Constants
// It's always good to have some kind of local constants per file, so that you have all variables in one place when it comes to changing/tuning
private struct K {
struct Actions {
static let civilianSpawningKey = "civilian.spawning"
static let playerMovingKey = "player.moving"
static let spawningDuration:TimeInterval = 0.7
static let spawningRange = 0.2
static let fadeOutDuration:TimeInterval = 0.35
}
struct General {
static let playerSpeed:CGFloat = 350
}
}
//MARK: - Private Properties
private var player:SKSpriteNode?
// Just in case, nodes are removed after physics simulation is done (in didSimulatePhysics which is called in each frame)
// Frame-Cycle Events : https://developer.apple.com/documentation/spritekit/skscene/responding_to_frame-cycle_events
private var trash:[SKNode] = []
private let civilianFactory = CivilianFactory()
private let playerFactory = PlayerFactory()
//MARK: - Scene lifecycle
override func sceneDidLoad() {
physicsWorld.contactDelegate = self
spawnCivilians()
}
//MARK: - Creating & Spawning sprites
private func getNode(factory:AbstractFactory)->SKNode{
return factory.getNode()
}
private func spawnCivilian(at position: CGPoint){
let node = getNode(factory: civilianFactory)
node.position = position
addChild(node)
}
private func spawnPlayer(at position: CGPoint){
// If its a first time, create player and leave it there
guard let `player` = player else {
let node = getNode(factory: playerFactory)
node.position = position
self.player = (node as? SKSpriteNode)
addChild(node)
return
}
// If player exists, move it around
let distance = player.position.distance(point: position)
let speed = K.General.playerSpeed
// To maintain same moving speed, cause if we use constant here, sprite would move faster or slower based on a given distance
let duration = distance / speed
let move = SKAction.move(to: position, duration:duration)
// This is a good way to check if some action is running
if player.action(forKey: K.Actions.playerMovingKey) != nil {
player.removeAction(forKey: K.Actions.playerMovingKey)
}
player.run(move, withKey: K.Actions.playerMovingKey)
}
private func spawnCivilians(){
let wait = SKAction .wait(forDuration: K.Actions.spawningDuration, withRange: K.Actions.spawningRange)
let spawn = SKAction.run({[weak self] in
guard let `self` = self else {return}
self.spawnCivilian(at: self.frame.randomPoint())
})
let spawning = SKAction.sequence([wait,spawn])
self.run(SKAction.repeatForever(spawning), withKey:K.Actions.civilianSpawningKey)
}
//MARK: - Touches Handling
func touchDown(atPoint pos : CGPoint) {
spawnPlayer(at: pos)
}
override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
for t in touches { self.touchDown(atPoint: t.location(in: self)) }
}
}
So I pretty much commented everything. Here, you :
Start spawning civilians infinitely, immediately after the scene is loaded
On touch you add player to the scene
On every next touch player travels to the touch location (by the same speed)
And contacts:
//MARK: - Physics
struct Collider{
static let player : UInt32 = 0x1 << 0
static let civilian : UInt32 = 0x1 << 1
static let wall : UInt32 = 0x1 << 2
static let none : UInt32 = 0x0
}
extension GameScene: SKPhysicsContactDelegate{
//MARK: - Removing Sprites
override func didSimulatePhysics() {
for node in trash {
// first remove node from parent (with fadeOut)
node.run(SKAction.sequence([SKAction.fadeOut(withDuration: K.Actions.fadeOutDuration), SKAction.removeFromParent()]))
}
trash.removeAll() // then empty the trash
}
//MARK: Removing
func didBegin(_ contact: SKPhysicsContact) {
guard let nodeA = contact.bodyA.node, let nodeB = contact.bodyB.node else {
//Silliness like removing a node from a node tree before physics simulation is done will trigger this error
fatalError("Physics body without its node detected!")
}
let mask = contact.bodyA.categoryBitMask | contact.bodyB.categoryBitMask
switch mask {
// Contact between player and civilian detected
case Collider.player | Collider.civilian:
if let civilian = (contact.bodyA.categoryBitMask == Collider.civilian ? nodeA : nodeB) as? SKSpriteNode
{
trash.append(civilian)
}
default:
break
}
}
}
I guess those contacts and node removal were your problem. The point is that nodes that have physics body, are safer to remove from a node tree when didSimulatePhysics method is finished. There is a link in comments that explains what happens each frame, but the bottom point is, that physics engine retains physics body cause simulation is not finished, but the node is removed and that often end up in some unexpected results.
So to try how this work, you just copy / paste it in your GameScene. Here is how it looks:
You can see how nodes are really removed by observing nodes count label. (to enable these labels, you just go (in your view controller class) with (self.view as? SKView)?.showsNodeCount = true, showsFPS, showsPhysics etc).
I am trying to implement circles attached to each other like in Apple's Music App via UIDynamicAnimator. I need to attach circles to each other and to view center. I was trying to implement this via UIAttachmentBehavior, but seems to it's not supporting multiple attachments. In result, circles overlaps on each other :)
let attachment = UIAttachmentBehavior(item: circle, attachedToAnchor: CGPoint(x: view.center.x, y: view.center.y))
attachment.length = 10
animator?.addBehavior(attachment)
let push = UIPushBehavior(items: [circle], mode: .continuous)
collision.addItem(circle)
animator?.addBehavior(push)
What I am doing wrong?
I don't think the apple music genre picker thing uses UIAttachmentBehavior which is closer to attaching two views with a pole or a rope. But, it seems like the problem you're experiencing might be that all of the views are added at the same location which has the effect of placing them on top of each other and with the collision behavior causes them to be essentially be stuck together. One thing to do is to turn on UIDynamicAnimator debugging by calling animator.setValue(true, forKey: "debugEnabled").
For recreating the above circle picker design, I would look into using UIFieldBehavior.springField().
For example:
class ViewController: UIViewController {
lazy var animator: UIDynamicAnimator = {
let animator = UIDynamicAnimator(referenceView: view)
return animator
}()
lazy var collision: UICollisionBehavior = {
let collision = UICollisionBehavior()
collision.collisionMode = .items
return collision
}()
lazy var behavior: UIDynamicItemBehavior = {
let behavior = UIDynamicItemBehavior()
behavior.allowsRotation = false
behavior.elasticity = 0.5
behavior.resistance = 5.0
behavior.density = 0.01
return behavior
}()
lazy var gravity: UIFieldBehavior = {
let gravity = UIFieldBehavior.springField()
gravity.strength = 0.008
return gravity
}()
lazy var panGesture: UIPanGestureRecognizer = {
let panGesture = UIPanGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(self.didPan(_:)))
return panGesture
}()
var snaps = [UISnapBehavior]()
var circles = [CircleView]()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
view.addGestureRecognizer(panGesture)
animator.setValue(true, forKey: "debugEnabled")
addCircles()
addBehaviors()

I'm doing a game where you have to capture candies using a spider hung by a thread, as I show in this link: Game screenshot (I'm new here so I can't post images yet). I already have the movement of the spider from left to right and also I'm able to catch the candies using SKAction moving through 'Y', my only issue is I didn't figure it out yet how to know if the spider don't capture any candy, during his movement, I was trying use the allContactedBodies function when the action finish but the count of the array returned is always zero.

First of all you have a lot of code in this question...too much, it makes it hard to focus on what is really happening. You are also missing a block of code for moveCharacter().
You should strongly look at creating subclasses for your player, rope and (mostly)candies. I would also look into creating an array of candies initially so that you are not dynamically creating physics objects during run time.
As for your question wouldn't it be as simple as creating a couple of variables in your class
private var isMoving = false
private var didGetCandy = false
override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
//prevent the user from firing the move while in the middle of a move
guard !isMoving else { return }
isMoving = true
let moveDownBlock = SKAction.run({
self.anchor.run(moveDown) {
//this is an appreviated form of a 'completion' block
self.isMoving = false
print("did I get a candy \(didGetCandy)")
}
})
}
func collisionBetween(candy: SKNode, object: SKNode) {
didGetCandy = true
}
I have an issue whereby I am moving the character based on the accelerometer data using the following code in the update function as follows:
let currentX = self.player.position.x
if motionManager.isAccelerometerAvailable == true {
motionManager.startAccelerometerUpdates(to: OperationQueue.current!, withHandler: {
data, error in
self.destX = currentX + CGFloat((data?.acceleration.x)! * 40)
print(CGFloat((data?.acceleration.x)!))
})
}
player.position.x = destX
Originally I was moving the player using SKAction.moveTo but have removed this for testing purposes.
This works ok but the problem is, I have a sound that is being played upon collision of an invisible object and when this is enabled it sends the accelerometer all funny. There is no specific pattern to it but after a little while the player usually sticks to either side of the screen or just hovers in the middle and the accelerometer doesn't have any effect on the movement.
I am playing the sound using
let playSound = SKAction.playSoundFileNamed("phaserDown3.mp3", waitForCompletion: false)
At the top of the file and then calling run on a collision.
The full code is in here http://pastebin.com/f6kWTnr7 and I have made a little video of the issue here https://youtu.be/tcGYyrKE4QY - as you will see, in this case when the score is at around 15 it sticks to the left for a little bit, then returns to normal then sticks to the right. It isn't always at score 15, it can be sooner or even later there is no consistency at all.
Any input will be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance
Take a look at this updated scene, some of the major changes are I combined your 3 separate blocks into 1 SKNode so that I only have to move the single SKNode, and I set it up where you score at the end of a contact, not the beginning. You can also see that the blocks now die when done scrolling, and your background is more efficient with its scrolling. If you have any other questions on the changes, feel free to ask.

I am trying to using the option of tilting the screen to move my player. So i followed the instructions of Ray Wenderlich and his space invaders tutorial. I just can't seem to figure out why my player is not moving from left to right when tilting the screen.

Have you nested your methods by accident? Looking at your code it seems so.
Did you check if the motion code is actually called?
Something like this should work
class GameScene: SKScene {
let motionManager = CMMotionManager()
override func didMove(to view: SKView) {
// setup player etc
motionManager.startAccelerometerUpdates()
}
func update(_ currentTime: TimeInterval) {
processUserMotion(forUpdate: currentTime)
}
}
Also as a tip, I would use optionals (?) when using your physics body instead of force unwrapping them (!). If it becomes nil at one point
you will crash when force unwrapping.
e.g
player.physicsBody?.affectedByGravity = false
Hope this helps
