  • Definitely would like to see this in C3 as well.

  • If we expect our path to be 100% clear before moving forward we will be holding ourselves back for infinity. I suggest we just get started and then learn to adapt to the surprises life will generously be throwing at us.

  • Problem Description

    Layer name change does not change name in event conditions. Causes user to have to waste time looking through events to fix all that were broken because of name change.

    Attach a Capx

    https://www.dropbox.com/s/648i3qco6rg5i03/LayerNameBug.capx?dl=0

    Description of Capx

    Shows sprite with 1 event.

    "If sprite is on layer "LayerName", rotate 1 degree clockwise."

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

    • Step 1- preview with f5, see sprite rotate
    • Step 2- change layer name in layers window
    • Step 3- preview with f5, see sprite not rotating

    Observed Result

    The layer name change breaks the event because the layer name change only happened in the Layers window and not in the event attached to the name.

    Expected Result

    Expected result is for layer name changes that occur in the "Layers Window" to also change layer name in appropriate events so it does not break the event.

  • i know it is, but noone is probably going to memorize all that. so some baloon tips or such could appear in editor from time to time, ofc. with ability to disable them once you learn the stuff

    A nice tip that I've used and seen my workflow speed increase dramatically is I always develop with the shortcut key list that Ashley linked to open on a separate window and I try to mainly use shortcuts when I do things. So if something comes up that my brain doesn't automatically know the shortcut to, I peak at the list and use the appropriate keys. Of course everyone is going to start off using only a few shortcuts but when an effort is made to memorize and use the shortcuts as often as possible, your repertoire increases, the amount of peaks at the list decreases, and over time you will be impressed with how fast you knock out events. Enjoy and Good luck!

  • Please provide a screenshot of events so we can help. Thanks.

  • Provide a capx or screenshot of events so we can help. Thanks.

  • Congratz, gotta love the workflow of C2.

  • For what you are looking for, the link LittleStain provided should get you on the right track. Good luck.

  • Looks awesome! Best of luck to you guys!

  • I just played and have to say great job! It ran smoothly on my phone. I am happy to see this. Congratulations.

  • A ok, good to know it's not a big deal . Thanks guys.

  • Saw something weird when previewing and would like to know if it happens to you guys.

    So I have 3 objects on layout(1 is off screen) and preview is in "Inspect" tab. Black circle has 8-direction behavior. I move the circle around and the FPS drops to 50FPS with the black circle really laggy. I stop circle and after a few seconds it goes back to 60FPS but if I move it goes back to 50FPS.

    Next I click the "Profile" tab at bottom right. Now game runs silky smooth, black circle runs perfectly smooth with no lag and the FPS stays at 60FPs. What the heck?

    I'm curious if this is just a bug in the "Inspect" tab of the preview mode or what's going on. Thanks for reading.

  • Using Intel XDK and auto-signing the apk is usually the way to go. Intel is supposedly working on giving Intel XDK the ability to create the necessary files for you to upload to various app stores but I only here little squeaks here and there about this. I'm curious if it comes out before Construct 3. Within a year we will know for sure.
