im confused on how to work this. i have an event when you shoot enemy, it creates about 20 blood particles, and whatever damage script.
out side of that, i have an event that states if number of blood is greater than 0 then run the blood loop number of blood particles times
on blood loop, it spreads a value of 0 to the id of blood
on a separate event, on blood loop and loop index equals id of blood and blood start is equal to -1, sets it to a direction 135-random(90) (using vector movement, so within the clickteam movement control, i have the set to object script too) and sets start to 0.
the event creates the 20 particles, but for whatever reason, about 1 or two go off in a different direction, but the rest clump together and go down and to the right. its obvious that there needs to be a more efficiant script, possibly for the spread value.
there is also another event that is effected by this, when zombie is shot in head, it sets a flag on, when the flag is on, it creates a blood particle at his neck. that part works perfectly, but problably only because its only doing one at a time. i cant do that with the other one, or i dont really get how to do it. help?

I don't think the spread value and fastloop is necessary at all.
If blood start is -1, set the direction and set blood start to 0. They should all have different directions.

youre right, it isnt necessary, but it still has the same effect, except this time only one is able to escape the clutches of the evil cluster of blood.

Set the blood particles to pinball movement, then after they are created set their direction to random(32), that's all you need.

i actually fixed it. i created a new blood object, sort of like a blood exposion, then created it on impact, started a loop called "blood" however many particles i wanted to throw out.
then on loop blood, i did two events, one for the left side, one for the right side, on every loop, one blood particle is created, and angled either 180-Random(90) for the left and 90-Random(90) for the right. i also added a set x to (x-7)+Random(7) and vice-versa for the other side, then y to (y+7)-Random(14) so it kind of bursts out away from the enemy towards the direction he was hit, and with the vector movement, it gives all the blood particles gravity so they jump up and fall to the ground. nice huh?
