  What you can do is use the Function object to do something similar. It's not quite a "one line" initialization but it's as close as you can get.

  Can you isolate the issue in a capx and share it with us ?

  You probably want to do this in separate events. One determine the type of hit : miss, hit, critical hit. The other set the damage accordingly.

  Yes, and that is most of the magic that comes with the containers functionality !

  This should help you.

  You first load the Dictionnary with the JSON, then you simply iterate through each key and display them along with the stored value.

  What exactly are you looking for, a way to parse the JSON out of Construct or a Construct way of reading all your values ?

  Loading an entire world in a single layout wouldn't be that drastic, but loading every NPC/monster/interactive object most certainly is. Since you mimic Zelda 1 style of exploration (screen per screen scrolling), it shouldn't that hard to populate only the current screen with its active content.

  Ultimately, you could share a capx and I'll take a look.

  I'm a bit confused too as to what you are trying to achieve. If you want to erase a touched tile and replace it by a corresponding sprite, here's a simple example.

  Ok, the "On destroyed" event is most probably never called. Erasing tiles in a tilemap won't trigger any event, so you should bundle the touch event and the "On destroyed" one together. A function would do the trick.

  There is either a problem with your object creation event, or the object is indeed created but wrongly positionned. May I see what you've done so far ?

  Just use the "Create object" action under the System object.

  Your best bet is a while loop and a temp variable under the every "temps" seconds.

  The data actually clear itself between different request, if it's what is concerning you.

  You usually don't have to, are you concerned about memory management ?
