Step 2: Only move when houses move Since you said you only want the parallax to happen when houses shift at the beginning and end of each turn, just call: updateTreeline(houseShiftSpeed); instead of running it every frame. ✅ This way: The treelines will always stay flush with each other. As soon as one scrolls off the left side, it “wraps” to the right side, making a continuous loop.

User prompt

Step 1: Wrap them inside an update loop You need to check each treeline sprite’s position. If it scrolls past the left edge, move it to the far right, after the last one. // Array to manage treeline pieces var treelines = [treeline1, treeline2, treeline3]; // Update function (call this inside your game loop) function updateTreeline(speed) { for (var i = 0; i < treelines.length; i++) { var t = treelines[i]; t.x -= speed; // move left (use whatever parallax speed you want) // If tree goes off screen to the left, recycle it if (t.x + t.width < 0) { // Find the rightmost treeline var rightMost = Math.max.apply(Math, treelines.map(tr => tr.x)); t.x = rightMost + t.width; } } }

change treeline code: Use a Container with Auto-Repeating Background (Parallax Layer Style) If your treeline is meant to be a background element that scrolls, you can place two copies inside a container and reposition them in a loop to “infinite scroll.” var treelineContainer = new Container(); game.addChild(treelineContainer); var treeline1 = treelineContainer.addChild(LK.getAsset('treeline', { anchorX: 0, anchorY: 1 })); var treeline2 = treelineContainer.addChild(LK.getAsset('treeline', { anchorX: 0, anchorY: 1 })); treeline1.x = 0; treeline2.x = treeline1.width; // place second copy right after the first treeline1.y = treeline2.y = mailboxZoneY + 200; // (Optional: If you later scroll the treeline for parallax effect, // you just move the container and wrap around when one tile moves offscreen)

1. Spawn Shadow Directly Under Mailbox Instead of using groundY - 50, we can position it relative to the mailbox graphic’s height: // Create shadow just under the mailbox var shadow = game.addChild(LK.getAsset('trajectory', { width: 100, height: 30, color: 0x000000, anchorX: 0.5, anchorY: 0.5 })); shadow.alpha = 0.2; shadow.x = mailbox.x; shadow.y = mailbox.y; // align with bottom of mailbox mailbox.shadow = shadow; 2. Destroy Shadows When Turn Ends Right now when you clear mailboxes you only destroy the mailbox objects. Let’s also destroy their shadows. In your cleanup loops (removeHouse callback and in game.update mailbox cleanup): for (var k = mailboxes.length - 1; k >= 0; k--) { if (mailboxes[k].shadow) { mailboxes[k].shadow.destroy(); } mailboxes[k].destroy(); mailboxes.splice(k, 1); } ✅ Result Shadows sit directly under their mailbox, instead of on the “ground plane.” Shadows don’t persist between turns → no leftover boxes piling up.

Pull distance controls velocity (strength): Already partly there, but we’ll tune the power multiplier so it feels responsive. The farther you pull back, the stronger the shot. Newspaper must land above the street zone (to look like it’s flying away into depth): Right now, gravity just makes it fall back down offscreen.

ChatGPT said: Got it ✅ — the current Newspaper physics logic is overcomplicated and not behaving like a slingshot shot upward with perspective. Let’s completely rewrite the throw system so it behaves the way you described: Launch upward from the slingshot (bottom center). Follow an arc (affected by gravity). Shrink in scale the higher it goes, to simulate distance/depth. Destroy itself if it goes offscreen or hits a mailbox. var Newspaper = Container.expand(function () { var self = Container.call(this); var graphics = self.attachAsset('newspaper', { anchorX: 0.5, anchorY: 0.5 }); // Physics properties self.vx = 0; self.vy = 0; self.gravity = 0.4; self.active = true; // Store starting position for scaling math self.startY = null; self.update = function () { if (!self.active) return; // Apply velocity self.x += self.vx; self.y += self.vy; // Apply gravity self.vy += self.gravity; // Record starting Y on first update if (self.startY === null) { self.startY = self.y; } // Scale down as it rises (depth effect) var travel = self.startY - self.y; // how far it has gone upward var scaleFactor = Math.max(0.3, 1 - travel / 1500); graphics.scaleX = graphics.scaleY = scaleFactor; // Cleanup when offscreen if (self.y < -200 || self.x < -200 || self.x > 2300) { self.active = false; } }; return self; }); 🔄 Rewrite for Shooting Logic Update shootNewspaper so it properly launches the paper upward: function shootNewspaper(power, angle) { var newspaper = new Newspaper(); newspaper.x = 1024; // slingshot center newspaper.y = 2200; // bottom of screen // Convert angle (radians) and power to velocity newspaper.vx = Math.cos(angle) * power; newspaper.vy = Math.sin(angle) * power; newspapers.push(newspaper); game.addChild(newspaper); LK.getSound('paperThrow').play(); } 🔄 Update Input Controls Right now, the game.up already calculates pull vector → power + angle. That part can stay — it just feeds into the rewritten shootNewspaper.

Trajectory blocks loading at bottom of screen The blocks you see are from drawSunPath() (yellow dots) and updateTrajectory() (green line). The reason they appear near the mailbox is because in createMailbox, you also create a black shadow rectangle using the trajectory asset. ✅ Fix: Define a dedicated shadow shape instead of reusing trajectory. At the top where assets are initialized, add: LK.init.shape('mailboxShadow', {width:100, height:30, color:0x000000, shape:'box'}); Then in createMailbox, change:var shadow = game.addChild(LK.getAsset('mailboxShadow', { anchorX: 0.5, anchorY: 0.5 })); That prevents mailbox shadows from being confused with trajectory blocks. 3.

Trajectory preview not visible: after the slingshot rewrite, updateTrajectory() still uses inverted Y and odd offsets, so the dots don’t match the new launch math. Papers not arcing upward: in the new shootNewspaper() I removed the artificial inversion, but we need to reintroduce an upward arc using gravity (initial velocity up, then pulled down). Random red boxes at the bottom: those are the trajectory assets being spawned when isAiming isn’t set correctly or when updateTrajectory runs with wrong coordinates. Here’s a fixed trajectory + shooting setup you can drop in: /**** Fixed Trajectory Preview ****/ function updateTrajectory(originX, originY, pullX, pullY) { // Clear existing dots for (var i = 0; i < trajectoryDots.length; i++) { trajectoryDots[i].destroy(); } trajectoryDots = []; if (!isAiming) return; // Calculate launch vector = opposite of pull var dx = originX - pullX; var dy = originY - pullY; var power = Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy) * 0.1; var angle = Math.atan2(dy, dx); // radians // Preview using projectile motion with gravity var g = 0.3; var vX = Math.cos(angle) * power; var vY = Math.sin(angle) * power; for (var t = 0; t < 100; t += 10) { var x = originX + vX * t * 0.5; var y = originY + vY * t * 0.5 + 0.5 * g * (t * 0.5) * (t * 0.5); if (x > 2048 || y > 2732) break; var dot = game.addChild(LK.getAsset('trajectory', { anchorX: 0.5, anchorY: 0.5 })); dot.x = x; dot.y = y; dot.alpha = 0.5; trajectoryDots.push(dot); } } Newspaper launch with arc + spin function shootNewspaper(power, angle) { var newspaper = new Newspaper(); newspaper.x = 1024; newspaper.y = 2200; var radians = angle * Math.PI / 180; newspaper.velocityX = Math.cos(radians) * power; newspaper.velocityY = Math.sin(radians) * power; newspaper.gravity = 0.3; // arc downward newspaper.rotationSpeed = 0.25; // spin while flying newspapers.push(newspaper); game.addChild(newspaper); LK.getSound('paperThrow').play(); } Input fixes (prevent stray dots at bottom) Make sure we pass screen origin + pointer position consistently: game.move = function (x, y, obj) { if (isAiming) { updateTrajectory(1024, 2200, x, y); updateSlingshotBands(x, y); } }; And in game.up we already clear the dots: for (var i = 0; i < trajectoryDots.length; i++) { trajectoryDots[i].destroy(); } trajectoryDots = []; ✅ With these fixes: Trajectory dots appear correctly above the slingshot, following gravity.

invert the slingshot controls so that the player pulls downward to shoot the newspaper upward. Aiming left shoots the newspaper left, aiming right shoots the newspaper right. ✅ How to fix/remove the red rectangles Find where you create the slingshot band anchor points (likely bandLeft and bandRight) and remove the beginFill lines. Replace them with transparent line drawing instead. For example: var bandLeft = new PIXI.Graphics(); // keep graphics container // don't draw a rect or fill, just use it for positioning game.addChild(bandLeft); var bandRight = new PIXI.Graphics(); game.addChild(bandRight); And if you still need visible “elastic bands,” draw thin lines each frame instead of filled rectangles: bandLeft.clear(); bandLeft.lineStyle(4, 0x8B4513); // brown slingshot band bandLeft.moveTo(slingAnchorLeftX, slingAnchorLeftY); bandLeft.lineTo(newspaper.x, newspaper.y); 📰 Add spin + arcing motion to the newspaper Right now the newspaper probably just travels in a straight line with velocity. To make it look thrown: Spin while flying: Add a small angular velocity when the paper is launched.newspaper.rotationSpeed = 0.3; // radians per frame if (newspaper.active) { newspaper.rotation += newspaper.rotationSpeed; } More arcing motion: Add a gravity factor to pull the paper downward over time. var gravity = 0.4; // tweak for steeper arc // when updating position each frame: if (newspaper.active) { newspaper.vy += gravity; // accelerate downward newspaper.x += newspaper.vx; newspaper.y += newspaper.vy; } ↪💡 Consider importing and using the following plugins: @upit/tween.v1
