  • +1 on printing the event sheet

  • totally agree with this feature request that for whatever reason has been ignored during the past few years of c2's development

    if anyone knows of how to do this, or has a good workaround, other than snipping-tool cut/paste to some sort of image editor

    but just a handy, send contents of eventsheet to printer...i would also very much appreciate! tks!

  • stemkoski

    your summer course sounds amazing

    is it open to all? where/when? is there a virtual class one can participate?

    if you could send me some details would greatly appreciate!

    many thanks in advance for your time & consideration

  • You can hide/show this by pressing the f4 button.

    THANK YOU very much! You were VERY helpful.

  • Hi there,

    My Objects (ghosted) Expressions Panel Listing is missing!

    When I first started learning C2, the expressions panel for each object would pop up ghosted for whichever object when I went to set an action, which would allow the option to click it to see a list of available expressions. VERY helpful.

    But I dont seem to get this anylonger in my current version of C2

    Is there a settings Im unaware of?

    Ive tried adjusting the refresh rate of my graphics card, and many other things, with no success

    What I would like to know if there is a alternate way to pull this up, without relying on it automatically popping up?

    many thanks in advance

  • You are going to have to use Ajax to send a string..

    There are some tutorials about communicating with mySQL through Ajax and php in the tutorial section..

    hey LittleStain, thank you so much.

    I will look into that.

    If anyone else has any other suggestions or recomends, I would GREATLY appreciate it!

    many thanks in advance!

  • API QUESTION - please HELP!

    Im working on a game for a client of mine whom is also working with a MySQL developer.

    The MySQL developer is setting up a server with a table in which I need to read/write variables to.

    They want the table on the server side so that the client can modify the table easily,

    without the need to mess with the C2 game-side of things.

    Basically, I need to read write data like the name of the player, their score, how many times they've played, among other data that can be updated dynamically on the server side,

    but used to populate questions on the C2 side of things.

    I am look for help in knowing what the BEST method would be to do this?

    which objects best fit my scenarios needs?

    ⦁ AJAX?

    ⦁ JSON?

    ⦁ ARRAY?

    ⦁ DICTIONARY?

    Any help you could throw my way would be GREATLY appreciated!

    many thanks in advance!

  • looking at several 3rd party tools

    I do not know enough to make an educated decision.

    between these which do you think would best serve a bullet proof IAP/Leaderboard service:

    http://clay.io/

    http://biz.turbulenz.com/developers

    http://api.shephertz.com/cloudapidocs/download.php

    and of course...

    https://www.ludei.com/cocoonjs/

    any thoughts on which is a better path for monetization & leaderboard capabilities?

  • thanks man!

  • russpuppy

    thats not very promising. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_sad.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad">

    are there other tools that are more reliable and have a better track record?

  • ...Setting up a site wouldn't take much (a couple of days to start) and grow from there to meet whatever needs you had, then you need to write the game to use the data...Hope that helps.

    bsimser :

    THANK YOU for your thorough reply, its VERY much appreciated.

    You mentioned a couple days set up time for the server query service.

    Interest?

    Is this something you think you could handle?

    And if/so would there be any interest in working on something together?

    **budgeted of course.*** Shoot me some numbers by PM if interested

    about me:

    Im an artist/animator turned game dev only thanks to C2's help

    ( i can PM you some links of some games i've put together)

    but when it comes to things like backend like MSQL, & such, Im quite humbled on how much i have to learn.

    more help welcome!

    Anyone else is also welcome to shoot me some numbers,

    as I have a client that I would be creating the games for,

    and they may be interested in having a 'team' divy up the responsibilities (front end & back end)

    Thanks in advance!

  • the problem is the 'how to'

    Im basically looking into a 'best practice' for this type of scenario

    or at least point me in the right direction of how to set up a database that the game can access

    when given user input by the teacher/parent

    many thanks again in advance
