  The grammar fail in the thread title made my head explode.

  It happens from time-to-time, but since not everyone around the world can speak english well, try your best to help those users and ask for clarification if you don't understand something.

  But there shouldn't be a lot of HDD movement - the save files are usually kB size

  True. Having your save data stored in a custom file in JSON format should do the trick.

  And what version of the engine did you use? R229? R227? Also, just as zenox98 said, an example would be helpful.

  I don't know any setting in the editor that would let you do that. Why would you need it anyway?

  Sure, Construct 2 can handle a game like that easily. However before you begin, I suggest you learn the basics of the engine and make some simple games with it. The manual is always helpful, just like the tutorials section.

  I have been learning a lot of Scratch in school, and you cannot compare it to C2 - Construct is MUCH better. Construct may be a little more complex, but you can make things much more easily with it. You have my opinion: Teaching C2 would be better.

  Thanks for the feedback How do you feel about learning programming logic with both software? If you just focus on that aspect (without the ease of use) which one do you prefer?

  Why is webgl disabled in your Chrome? Does it have your GPU on the blacklist?

  You'll have to set up a bit more complicated logic for when you click the button. It should check that what categories are enabled at that moment using a local variable and a seperate random generated number it should decide what category it will choose from. Then you can use the currently generated random number to select a frame.

  Also, you can put your loops inside groups and enable/disable them when needed.

  It may well be the case that construct 2 has the same problems.

  Do some tests yourself and see how Construct 2's performance fits your needs: https://www.scirra.com/construct2/releases/r227

  You might also want to check out this topic, it lists several big games made with Construct 2:

  So if I understand you right, you want to select 2 categories and then when you click the button you want the code to randomly select not just from 5 options (from one category) but from 10 (the 2 selected category)? And in the end only display that 1 selected option?

  Construct 2 for sure. It's easier to use, updated frequently, powerful and has a great UI, cheaper, etc.. Before you buy it give the free version a go and follow granpa 's advice to recreate the same thing in C2 you made in Stencyl.

  Your biggest problem will be running it on MAC. You'll have to use a VM software to do that. Construct 3 will support MAC, but it's still a long way off, so don't wait for that.
