  • Do you have a transparent background on the rug image?

  • Try RexRainbow's Hash plugin.

    We use JSON inputs and parse it with Rex's Hash plugin, but I believe it accepts XML too.

  • No. You must set up servers (or contract someone to do it for you).

    The browser is unsecurable. So you should never, never, never rely on client-side security.

    A Container is not a container like a bucket. It's an association between object types during object creation, destruction and picking. You might want Pin behaviour. (Not saying Container wouldn't be useful, just in a different way).

    Thanks codah. The pin behavior works perfectly. I have a scrollable/drag/droppable table now.

  • It is only one sponsor long atm.

  • Thanks for this article. We are self publishing, so our biggest issue is finding a reasonable payment processing company.

  • We are publishing our game on an Amazon Web Services virtual server.

    You can setup a free one for a year at their website: http://aws.amazon.com/

    Once you install Apache web server, you just copy/paste your exported files into the htdocs folder in Apache main directory then visit the public IP listed on the AWS EC2 server description.

  • Okay after testing on a raw Opera 32-bit and WaterFox browser, it seems that the culprit is one of the plugins on my usual browser.

    Thanks for clarifying this, Ashley.

  • Hm, okay, I do have Adblock Plus, Firebug, Flash player, and a Java plugin. I'll experiment on raw browsers and see.

    The server itself is running a locked down version of Apache which proxies the requests back to Java servlets running on a Linux Tomcat stack. I'll dig through my server side code, but I still don't know what else would cause that popup.

  • There is a popup that asks if I want to allow my game to allow me to track myself. It looks something like this:

    [attachment=0:3lasycmx][/attachment:3lasycmx]

    Except it says something along the lines of: "Do you want to let this website track you?" Allow / Allow Once / Disallow

    I always hit Disallow, but I would prefer that it not ask my users at all.

    How do I go about disabling this?

    I am assuming that it probably has an AJAX call back to a Scirra server, so I could probably just look for AJAX/GET/PUT code specifically, but it would be easier if I have some idea of where to look in c2runtime.js.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • You have to change all of the resource directories for images and sounds. I run my C2 without any index.html file at all, but I had to tailor the resource URLs to the server during export.

  • Yea, I know, but I need instances added to the container, not object types for my particular purpose.

  • Look up rex_rainbow's "Bejeweled" demo. He uses animation frames of various colors, then uses "random(Sprite.AnimationFrameCount)" to set the frame to a random frame (after setting the animation speed to 0 of course).

  • Remember that calling "TextBoxObjectName.Text" will give you the text that is currently in the text box. If the Text Box is blank, .Text will return null (or rather an empty string).

  • Yup, what codah says: you want the Pin behavior:

    I have to do more research into this. It looks like it might solve my problems though. Thanks!
