How do I setup a fullscreen terminal?

Hey guys. Ambitious newtimer here.

I am looking into setting up a game created with construct 2 on multiple computers, acting like a terminal that people can interact with. But I don't want the user to be able to just exit fullscreen and close the game through the browser.

How can I setup a computer, that initially boots straight into a fullscreen game upon powerup, without any user interaction at all, and then stay there for a whole day? Are there any alternatives to running a chrome/firefox webbrowser?

You would need to use node-webkit full screen for a start. You would also need software running to capture keyboard input such as control alt del or alt F4 on the pc. Also you may need to disable other keys such as the Windows key.

Thanks for your reply.. I noticed node webkit required a license, so I bought construct 2 personal and tried to play around with the node webkit. I can't find the 'full screen' option, though. Is the node webkit restricted to a maximized window?

Use the Browser object and Request Full Screen.

"But I don't want the user to be able to just exit fullscreen and close the game through the browser"...

I see user experience is top of your list... so how exactly do you quit this "Game"

don't sound suspect at all...

He might be wanting to do shop-front display or other such terminals where giving public access to the operating system could be a security risk.

I've not used windows 8 yet, so can't speak to it, but anything v 7 and backwards, you could call your .exe on startup and have it run fullscreen.

I'd leave in some special key-combo you'd know so you could exit though.

Thanks a lot. Requesting fullscreen worked an absolute charm.

Oh yeah for what its worth the plan, or the vision, is to have casino games developed on terminals that are all connected to a master server on the local network. The whole game will be touch based, meaning no one should be able to press alt + f4 or leave fullscreen.

construct seems to be the perfect IDE suitable for such a game.
