    ok so im making a save which involves spng (moving of course) i know how to move it and all, but whenever i do only one layer of the spng moves?i want the whole blob to move not just one part.

    the console command im using is: !set vx spng 4

    its meant to move to the right of the screen. am i doing something wrong?

    thanks

    spng only moves properly when it is negative. !set vx/vy spng -[speed you want here]
    Remember -.

    I the newest beta, the speed improvements change the order particles are drawn in. SPNG still moves up like normal, but when you try to make it move left, only the left half moves. You can now make it move right, but only the right half will move. It still won't move down.

    There is a way to make it go in any direction in any version though. To make it go right, start by drawing them in the shape you want on the right side, one by one with the smallest brush. Then draw the particles to the left of those, and keep going until you are drawing the ones on the very left side. This way, the particles on the right will move first, and then there will be nothing blocking their way.

    so it wont work or is there some way to type !set type spng -4 and make it go left. i thought the '-' was to make it go right.
