  • Basically 'set animation' is working how it seemed it was originally designed to, cool. I think it was just the description (or lack of) in the changelog that had me confused initially.

  • My animations weren't playing right and jittering (I uninstalled straight away after noticing that,) I have a few animations that were being set to playing from the 'animation finished' trigger but most of them are just like Joannesalfa's (random conditions.)

  • Yeah its best to email them, tell them C2 is awesome and your stats.

  • Choosing to put Game Maker on it instead of Construct, is like choosing Windows ME over Windows 7.

  • Click "events" near the top of the program then you will find a search bar, you can filter events according to words with that.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • That positioning stuff is cool, I hope that'll at least come to C2 like it did in Classic.

  • Thanks guys. I feel so stupid now, such basic mistakes!

  • R0J0hound, Yeah I've based my understanding for this from that, but its not working which is why I need help.

  • I'm trying to link this red object to the green wall with gray chains using physics behaviour (with pivots).

    I can't get it to work at all.

    The result for me:

  • I think I made a similar topic before, Ash basically comfirmed that you'll eventually be able to click on the object area of an action/condition to quickly swap it.

    Which should be faster than the back/next thing.

    (Would be cool if you could just click and drag those object parts to replace other objects even faster, like how Clickteam's event system does it.)

  • TLDR of Ash's article: Use the "Save As" command more than you use the "Save" command, and make sure you save it to something like dropbox.

  • I wish they'd just bring out the next console generation instead of prolonging this one, it's so dated now. I remember when consoles were cutting-edge.

  • The arrows pointing everywhere looks pretty silly and disorganised... Construct looks heaps more logical and efficient.

  • Karzay yeah, but it depends on your audience. If you're aiming for an audience like Steam, then looking at steam's harware surveys data is better.

    Most people don't actually have a good graphics card, so graphics is a huge part of performance (window size, graphics size etc.).

  • If Scirra teamed up with Unity, that would be a dream come true.
