  • my cousin sometimes runs TV competitions, except its not really 'random' - he gets to choose who wins them.

  • if you don't think it's a bug but a problem with the way your doing it, then maybe post your .cap file so we can see what you've done.

  • We should make a pinned topic in here with a list of FAQ, with links to threads so you don't have to rely on the 'search' thing only.

  • since you don't support tick based "writing" of text you use write speed which is affected by timescale, would be possible for you to put an action which would 'write next letter' or something? so that I can make my own tick based write speed, since I don't want mine to slow down when time scale changes.

  • For scrolling to the right:

    New event - System - compare. So then you can compare the two values: "Get mouse X" and "Get X right of visible screen". Which will check if the mouse is on the right edge of the screen.

    action - system - scroll to X. Then you want to retrieve the current "Get scroll X" then add 10 to it.

    and you'll end up with this:

    however I made it so that if your mouse is within 10 pixels of the right edge, by checking if the mouse is greater than right edge -10 pixels - because it's too annoying to try and get the mouse to exactly the right edge.

  • thanks. That's great news!

  • If I have a sprite (player) that is in most layouts, but isn't a 'global object', and I edit an animation (or make any other changes) it will still appear the same in all the layouts?

    I wouldn't have to edit the sprite in every other layout would I ?

  • this seems useful.

    At first I thought it would be for tilting/changing camera angle etc, lol.

  • I know the default filter for sprites is white, but is it possible to filter a colour so I can make it white or another lighter colour?

  • if only it was a more clone of construct

  • I'm not sure to be honest.

    Also is it possible to not have this plugin affected by timescale for write text? or is that impossible? since I (and probably lots of people) will want to write text when the game is still.

    or maybe a tick based write text

  • lol, I don't think it was related to your spritefont.

  • I was working on something, but then I made some art with the crash

  • its because the sprites arent there until the "show text" action

    try moving the filter action after the "show text" action in the same event

    that doesn't work either, I don't think they can be in the same event. But that's okay.
