  • Thanks, I didn't see that.

    Here's what I see...they show up in the folders you showed in your pic, but not in the panel right below it.

  • The Bug

    I accidentally canceled Sprite creation, and when I tried to re-create the Sprite "Bullet", I got an error saying the name was already taken. The original "Bullet" sprite doesn't show up in the objects panel, but does show up in dialog boxes for event/action creation.

    Steps to Recreate

    NOTE: I was following the tutorial at Beginner's guide to Construct 2

    1. Insert a new Sprite by double-clicking on map and double-clicking "Sprite".
    2. Click outside of Construct 2 to cancel the creation.
    3. Try to recreate the Sprite using the same name, and it will say the name is already taken.

    NOTE: I've noticed this "bug" occurs even when you finish the Sprite creation process. If you delete the Sprite and try to recreate it using the same name, you get an error saying the name is taken already.

  • Herro. Imma cupcake, and I be stealin' your muffins.

    I just finished the first tutorial for Construct2, and I'm mighty impressed. It reminds me of GameMaker in some ways, which is good, because GameMaker is the easiest game making tool I've ever come across (until now). It's only 2 weaknesses was that A) games made with it tended to be slow and B) it couldn't make online games that could run anywhere.

    I used to study game programming using C++, Visual Basic, and BlitzPlus as a hobby, so I can fully appreciate how much easier this is than coding from scratch.

    Seems I found the right solution. :)
