  • Try Construct 3

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

  • The same problem happens to me

  • If I'm not mistaken, the images aren't compressed or hidden when exporting, meaning people are able to alter the sprites within your game, which I guess counts as modding... Although yes, there's probably a way to detect "mods" in a folder or something and have them load into the game if someone was to create one.

  • Add a condition, select the object, scroll right to the bottom of the list of conditions til you see "Z Order" then choose "Pick top/bottom"

  • Yep they are. I guess it doesn't happen to you? I can reproduce it easily. I just have construct open, open up a game like Left4Dead, close the game, then realise that construct 2's window behaves strangely.

    This is directly at the top left of my desktop. Seems to happen when I minimize construct and run a fullscreen game or software that changes my computers resolution but I'm not sure just yet... I'll figure out how to reproduce it...I'LL MAKE IT MY LIFES MISSION TO REPRODUCE IT. *gets m16*

    Worst part is that when alt+f4ing at this stage, it asks if I would like to save, which I say yes, then it saves, then remains there.... then I try alt+f4ing some more then it gives me a windows crash dialog.

    EDIT: Yeah...Construct 2 goes funky after having a fullscreen game up... not a deadly bug but it's kinda annoying. <img src="smileys/smiley18.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • This happens with me too.

  • I was wondering if I'm missing any useful features that may be present in designing layouts? I have lots of tiles that need to accurately be positioned correctly to form a nice looking level, so I used the Grid snapping tool. Problem was, there's not some sort of offset, so the grid always pings tiles into place according to the size you specified and nothing more, no shifting the alignment unless you highlight everything and move it manually.

    Another question, sometimes sprites position themselves in a decimal value (instead of X position of sprite being 500, it sometimes is something like 500.393) Is there some sort of key you can hold to prevent this or anything? It is very tedious to have to click individual sprites that have this and then remove the decimal numbers, especially when there are many tiles <img src="smileys/smiley18.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

    And finally, much like Construct Classic, is there a way to automatically duplicate lots of sprites in rows and columns? That was a sure way to save immense time when designing layouts :3

    IF it is not recommended to use the layout as a place to create levels, then I would love to know what the most best alternative is to making them and loading them in. (Probably something to do with arrays, I don't know <img src="smileys/smiley17.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> )

    Thanks!

    The manual is already in Construct 2's folder, it's just not opening up like it should when it is clicked.

  • Same thing happens to me. I get linked to 'file:///C:/Program' too

  • I was using middle click to scroll around my layout then i accidently moved my cursor too far to the right onto something, and middle clicked, and then this crash appeared. I'll try and recreate it.

    EDIT: I found out what it was. If you click on the "Layers" or "Projects" tab on the right panels (they're on the right by default) then it will crash, and also it will separate the projects and layers tabs from eachother when you next open Construct 2.

  • Hmm, I did try making a physics platformer using Construct Classic a very long time ago, but the main problem I ran into was traveling down slopes. How would I keep the player firmly on a slope as it travels down it as a physics object? The platform behaviour in Construct 2 handles slopes perfectly :P

  • Hello :)

    So, there's a platform movement, walks along solid floor and up slopes and whatnot, and I decide I want to add physics. I give the physics behaviour to the player and the floor, and I make some box sprites to test collision. Now, the player vibrates when he's landed, and the box sprites behave nicely, and the pushing collision isn't so bad when the player touches the boxes, but then I wonder,

    How would I perfect the collision with the box+player?

    How would I prevent the player from vibrating up and down on the ground?

    How would I allow the player to be able to stand on the box? (Setting a Solid behaviour stops the player from being able to push the boxes)

    Thanks very much <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
