  • Thanks, I've done the Boolean, but what do I put for the event for it to not allow the player to build?

  • Hey, How do I increase the speed of a physics objects when it falls down? (ie. how to make gravity lower for physics objects)

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Thank you for your response, is there a step by step tutorial anywhere for the number 2?

  • Hello,

    1. How do you save the file so that you wouldn't need to always open construct 2 to play it, and only need to play via browser? do you export it as a html 5 file?

    2. In my game when you click M1 you spawn a block, how would I create a delay so that every say, 0.5-1 seconds you can spawn another block oppose to people being able to spam blocks?

    3. How would I create a block limit so that if someone creates lets say 10 blocks and then they create one more block it deletes the first block they placed, if they create another, it deletes the second block they placed, would this have something to do with instance variables?

    Thanks.

  • Hey, how do I add check points so when my character dies he doesn't have to re-spawn from the beginning?

    This means that my character can overlap with another object that will be called 'check point' and he will spawn there when he dies.

  • Ah. found out my default browser couldn't save as a C2 file.

    Kyatric, thank you very much for your help! <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> I couldn't of had done it without you. <img src="smileys/smiley27.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • I'm really really sorry for wasting a little bit more of your time again but I'm new to construct and don't know my way around, but how do I post your caproj file, because when I click it I get a new tab of code? so i Save Target As it into a .xml then paste it somewhere? again I'm really really sorry.

    And how I got into this mess I don't quite know, but last time I looked I had 2 objects of 'spike' one was blank and the other had a sprite on it, but I used the one with the sprite.

  • How do I save it as a .capx if i can't open my project, I only have a .caproj file? what happens is I open up the project, it gives me a error, only choice it gives me is to click OK, then I'm left with a blank construct 2 screen.

  • Sorry about my ignorance, but what is a capx?

    and no I didn't delete the object spike, I have over 7 or 8 of them in my game.

  • Hey guys,

    Whenever I try to open my project, this message comes up,

    An object instance was specific with the name 'spike', which does not appear to be an object type name in this project.

    Under element: c2layout \ layers \ layer \ instance

    Line 4860, column 17

    In C:\(my folders)

    The file type may be invalid. Try checking the file in a text editor (projects are saved in XML format).

    Any help guys?

  • Hey everyone,

    I'm making a platform game where when you click on the layout a object spawns on your mouse's position, the objects have physics, this means that if a person spawns a object in the sky that it would fall down to the floor, but I've encountered a problem,the object goes through the floor(solid), is there anyway I can fix this? I've tried making the object both a physic and a platform object but that makes the object really glitchy. Any help?

    Thanks

  • Hello everyone, I'm going to make a game using construct 2 and I would like input on what you think makes a good game. I'm doing a little research before I start making a game so i would like anyones opinion. You can list what ever you want, art styles, narration, enemies, background etc.

    Also if you have any advice/tips for me that would be great!
