  • I don't think that will work because i never know how far away the camera and object is so it's speed might slow to 0 before reaching it, or overshoot.

    I've uploaded my test.

    press a key to move to the next object.

    I'm still learning construct so maybe theres an easier way i havent discovered yet.

  • I want to scroll the screen to an object and have it slow to a halt when it reaches it's position, so i set the screen pos to a box, gave the box the ball movement behaviour then set it's speed to the distance between the box's xy and objects xy, but the speed stays constant.

    Any help? Thanks.

  • Event wizard, sprites, pixie shaders...definitely a lot of magic in construct.

  • Hey? I didnt catch any of that lol. As far as i remember i didnt replace any objects or swap code over.

    But if it's fixed, that great news.

    Also, what the hecks the Event Wizard?

  • Adam does art for Jeff and Clickteam, and is he the one redoing their website? Sad though.

  • okay saying that, i saved a file and now construct wont open it again.

    No error message, just

    "Construct.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

    Then construct closes.

  • Okay, i calmed down and was in a better mood today lol, so i decided to spend this sunday playing with construct.

    I'm so impressed, i don't know what i must of being doing before but now it totally blew me away. Maybe the problem was inpart that using mmf for so long i've gotten used to always using work-arounds which has got me into bad habbits. Construct seems to take a more logical and ordered approach to everything and is more like real programming.

    I think i'll have a hard time going back now.

  • Try Construct 3

  • Good work on the rain demo. Theres really no better response to this argument.

  • No, the code above was just a test, nothing i code seems to work so i wanted something easy which i knew should work, but it doesnt seem to.

    No behaviours, no other code.

    I'm a bit fed up with the program at the momemt so i'll cool off and try again later.

  • I'm sure it's down to me just needing to get to know how to use the program better, but i just can't seem to get even the simplest of programs to work using construct.

    For example i do,

    always

    • set box.x to mousex
    • set box.y to mousey

    and even that doesnt work, it just stays in the top corner.

    Forget about doing anything remotly complicated.

  • [bug] When i try to change the background to a custom colour in the layout properties panel it says "an unsupported operation was attempted".

  • You can download the cap. file here,

  • I really like that idea.

  • Incase you missed the other thread, the platform behaviour gravity directions are not working, and i can't get max fall values to work, don't know about the other properties.

  • I've applied platform behaviour to a box and set the gravity direction to up instead of the default down but it still falls down. Same if i change it to left or right. I've tried setting all other values to 0 (exceot gravity strength) to see if that has any efect but it doesnt.

    Am i doing something wrong or is it a bug?
