  • WOW! Thank you. That is EXACTLY what I was after. I appreciate the help and the time you took to do the demo.

    Off to study it now...

  • I'm wondering how to create a standard background grid that displays numbers on both the x,y coordinates. I'd like to have a user enter the grid size and then generate a grid automatically. Can this be done in Construct2? If so, are there any examples or places too look? I've gone through this area and found nothing to help.

    So a user enters two numbers: 20,20. A gird is generated with the included numbers. Grid below isn't the best representation, but I hope it will help you visualize what I'm trying to do.

          0      5       10   15   20

    Any help is appreciated and valued.

  • Hi Rory,

    I don't want to leave you wondering if I've ever made any headway with your sample code. I am buried under other work right now. That combined with the holidays haven't given me a lot of extra time to devote to Construct2. I have tinkered a little with the code sample . I'm not sure that Construct 2 is making sense to me yet. I'm thinking that it is more complex than I had imagined, but I as I get a little more time, I will see what I can make of it. Your code has helped me a lot to get a handle on approaching the environment as well as helping me with my original problem.

    Thanks again.

  • Great! THANKS Rory. I appreciate the help.

  • Rory,

    You "ROCK".

    YES!!!! The rotation of the bamboo is exactly what I'm trying to figure out. I'm so new to Construct2. The drag and drop is easy to get since it is already built into Construct2, but rotation has me stumped. I'm working on an idea for an application that needs to have the ability to rotate its objects on an iPad or iphone. I've built applications using jquery mobile, but would like to try to use Construct2 for a more ambitious project.

    Is there and example or tutorial of how you did this.

    Neat game.

    Thanks...

  • Hi There:

    Yet another newbie to Construct2 here and as is always the case, I'm looking for help. I need to see some examples of drag, drop AND rotate using touch.

    I've found some examples of drag and drop using the mouse. They are good, but what I'd like to do in my "test" app is to have one object that can be dragged, dropped or rotated by a user when the object is touched. This is similar to what is done in many art programs when transforming a rectangle.

    Would appreciate any kind soul pointing me in the right direction.

    TIA
