  • It would be interesting certainly.

  • It's good to see you having a fun and effective experience with Construct 2.

  • Could you upload a capx file (that has the non-working event sheet inside it) and post a link here to it? You won't be able to post links, so remove the http:// from the beginning of it.

    Also what C2 version are you using?

  • Let's say you have two Sprite objects called A and B. On the event sheet you make an event for A object: On collision with B. Then you add the Set frame action for A and/or B objects to that event. Since a collision picks the two instances taking part in the collision, you can set their frame just by checking the collision and using the set frame action.

  • It took me just a few hours so by now, your game should be online.

  • You can make a simple game with 100 events, but you can make a complex game with tens of thousands of events. It depends on the project.

  • So, from a non-business and more personal perspective: thank you adding Multiplayer, Ashley. I reckon it increased the value of C2 and it certainly makes a lot of people happy, even if they don't say it or even post on these forums.

  • Here are my suggestions (don't take these an insult, I mean no offense nor to criticize your abilities):

    glerikud - Only made a couple small games but recently learned a lot about construct and need a project for next year so might as well start something. So mobile market is hopeless then. I spent long time trying to find good strategy game on google play but all were crap. Was hoping to find something like the old red alert quality, didn't find anything, so was thinking would it be possible put something of that quality on a phone. Targeting Strategy game audience who would search through them all like i did and if good pass it on.

    I'd suggest you make a game in half a year if you can afford the time for it. It's purpose would be to learn how to design and make strategy games with C2. Also before you get into a big project that could take years to complete, it's better to have some mid-lenght projects done.

    So what platforms can I build for with construct II? Cab I build for a desktop with construct II. I'm still a little confused with that. How to monetize with Construct II with Desktop if game is great?.

    Go to Scirra's homepage and scroll down to the "Build Once. Publish Everywhere." section. There you can find all the platforms you can export with C2. Keep in mind that all exports (except the HTML5) use 3rd party wrappers to make your game run on those platforms.

    Probably the best way to monetize a desktop game is to upload it to Steam Greenlight. Currently the Greenworks plugin for Construct 2 (which lets you use the Steamworks API) is broken, but a new version should be released soon. You can follow the news about it in this topic:

    ...I want players to be able play each other. Its not single player. Multiplayer.Ill have to get that peer to peer yoke Scirra have.I have a PC and laptop so testing will be a bit easier. Multiplayer should be easier than creating complex AI Single player mission

    Before you even try to make a serious project using multiplayer, make some small multiplayer games if you did not already. Networking can be a mess and it's sometimes harder to code right than making a good AI.

  • Ok Cool Man. Can you jump onto my new post and maybe give me a few bits of your brain please sir

    There's no need to advertise your topic, it just generates more off-topic posts.

  • Before you start:

    How many games have you made?

    Why do you want to make it a mobile game? You can't expect much from the mobile market nowadays.

  • IIRC, Ashley said this wasn't implemented because he was concerned about competition stealing ideas from such a page.

    Well yes, I can see the point in that. Not displaying the number of votes for each element might help, but there still would be a public list... Well, I still believe it can be done somehow to serve it's purpose and keep the valuable information safe.

    However that's not a problem for a bug reporting page.

  • How about a "Digg" style page somewhere on Scirra.com that we can use to post these feature suggestions and "sales pitches" and then let others vote them up/down to build a C3 feature list? How useful and fun would that be?!

    +1000

    I think this is indeed something Scirra needs. A place where people can add and vote for future features (with moderation oc. and a big text that this page is only about suggestions and Scirra may take it into account if they see it right and feasible). Or it could be a page that shows suggested features but not the number of votes it has.

    Also, I'd say that there should be a similar page for bug reports as well. A lot of users are not using the current forum-based solution.

    You could restrict users who bought Construct 2 or 3 to be the only ones able to vote on features if you want to prevent spamming.

  • i have construct2 212-2 version at home. my son developed project on it but scool has 212-0 . He is not able to open it there. How to convert 212-2 project in 212-0

    Save your project as a folder and open up the .caproj file for editing (for ex. with Notepad). Then find the following line:

    <saved-with-version>21202</saved-with-version>

    Replace the version number to the desired one. Save and it should work.

    Not however that this is only a workaround, the better solution would be to take zenox98 's advice and get the school to update.
