Bejeweled (Plugins demo)

I'm sure you have all figured this out by now, but you can add sounds effects to trigger when blocks leave the board:

Is there a way to change the background color without adding a sprite? I searched everywhere and I can't find where you set it to black..

Thanks in advance

-Mike

Mike, If I recall correctly, you can change it on the layer properties tab.

Doesn't seem to by that option that I can see, one of the first places I looked.

The black background is set in the tiles Layer:

I think the solution to that is on the Score.Add function... There is an event that calls this function and sends a parameter ("InstGroup.InstCnt("elimination"), which contains a value that is added to the Score...

With that, and maybe try to find something in the event that says:

               prepare.On "MATCH2D" transfer logic ...

I believe that is the part when you actually look for valid matches.

Thanks for the tip. I was thinking maybe it would go in MATCH3, but you might be right there. I'll keep trying.

MATCH2D (to me) looks like it's supposed to be detecting whether or not matches exist, but it doesn't seem to do anything when you run out of moves, so I could be wrong. I'm very new to all this.

Thanks, that's the ONE place I didn't look. Hehe.

rexrainbow - would you be able to help with some questions I have on some of your plugins? I would be happy to pay you for your time.

Great Project! If I wanted to have less or more than 6 blocks am I able to just add or subtract from the animation on the block sprite? Also, have you or anyone else figured out how to have the game check for being out of moves? Thanks again for this great project and I look forward to your response.

Nutzaboutpoker -

You can put however many frames you want...you would probably just want to adjust the Board and SquareTx settings

The game is supposed to check when you are out of moves and reset the board, but the plugin is apparently broken. Also, a few of the matcher patterns (see MATCH2D) are incorrect. A colleague of mine tried to fix it, but has had limited success.

Hey Dan, sorry for the late reply...

Check the capx:

It's the same bejeweled capx but modified...

great thanks

Hello guys! I'm trying to make a combo system that is based on the number of blocks and color destroyed by the player. I can deal with the numbers but I don't know how to get the blocks colors. Do you guys have any idea how to do it?

rockmegax quite easy, you can use the Animation Frame of each block, or use Instance Variable for the color, setting it at the creation of each Block.
