  • So my lighting system is based on a destination out blend with sprites at a non transparent black layer to create holes to simulate light, with a layer under it to provide color for these lights, this basically includes a color only sprite and a hole sprite.

    What I am asking, is how could I make this multi-layered so that we have a floor lighting system working and a top lighting system working. Say there are lights on the floor that we want the player to step over and block like a dance floor, and lights on top that the player cannot block for sprites like a lamppost and such.

    Here is an example of how the lighting system is flawed or working.

    As you can see the real problem is adding bottom lights, just how can we do so without conflict with the top lighting system?

    This is a really big part to my game and would be a great help to have it figured out.

  • I don't seem to understand why this isn't working. I have a few (4 sprites) with 60+ collision points and they all have this problem with missing points. I'm sure this isn't a bug as others would of reported it before if so.

  • That worked thanks so much!

  • I have a problem with my game, as there is a movement button that rotates a object clockwise and one that rotates a object counter-clockwise.

    The problem is that when it rotates it glitches somewhat and by that i mean the object overlays another physics object. These pictures are the problem I'm talking about, the first to of the object rotating both ways and the last picture is the object without the act of rotation.

    I would just like to know how to fix this or if there is a way to rotate the object with the physics behavior. I'm using the usual "rotate counter clockwise 1 degree" FYI.

  • I have the same problem, how do I fix it?

  • I know that pin and physics dont work too well, but is there a way to make a replacement for pin that works with physics? Is there some way to glue sprites to other sprites, like how you can weld objects together on Garry's Mod?

  • I got it working thanks for the help everyone

  • So event number 9 is not running at all. Multiplayer.ListRoomCount cannot return a value until the room list has been received, but you call the request in that event. The second event will also never run because the request is never sent in the first place.

    Try using another trigger to first request the room list.

    Then, on room list received, repeat Multiplayer.ListroomCount times

    RoomList Append text Multiplayer.ListRoomName(loopindex) & " - "Multiplayer.ListRoomPeerCount(loopindex) & newline

    I tried that but it seems to not work. For some reason after it requests the rooms the list never gets received. Hope this image explains allot.

    EDIT:

    this is the event sheet now and it has the same result.

  • The manual is pretty clear... Which part don't you get?

    You'll need an ”on room list" event, then you can get all the room information by expressions.

    [quote:2ep8u8iu]ListRoomCount

    After On room list, the number of rooms in the received list.

    ListRoomName(index)

    ListRoomPeerCount(index)

    ListRoomMaxPeerCount(index)

    ListRoomState(index)

    After On room list, retrieve information for a room at an index in the received list. The state can be one of "available", "locked" or "full".

    You can use a loop for loopindex from 0 to multiplayer.listroomcount to go through each room by index.

    I really have no idea of what to do, I've tried this and it still is not working, here's an image of what I'm doing.

    I don't know what I'm doing wrong I'm requesting the list and everything.

  • How do I make a list that list all the current rooms and instances that people are hosting on my game?

    They make a room at the log in screen but I want to know how to display all online/available rooms in the game on the login screen as well, like a server list for example and I want to know how to do this on something like the real-time multiplayer example.

    I just can't figure out how to do this with the "Request room list" action.

    So on the top is the gif that I'm basically trying to get done in my game, and the second to the top is the link to the plugin I am using.

    Just need to know how to replicate whats going on in the gif and that's it. I made a mask sprite, light sprite and added the glow fx to the light sprite yet it doesn't seem to work so any help would be awesome.

  • It should be in a container, so when your peer player sprite is created, they get an AimSpot as well.

    I tried removing it from the container, but this made it so that the host can see all of them and only the peer sees their own, and it also makes lazer thing do no damage.

    I also tried a sync variable thing and a opacity thing (see the image below) to make it only visible to the peer, but that makes it so that the host sees all aimspots and the peer sees none.

    Can you please explain how to make it so that only the peer/host sees their own AimSpot?

  • The AimSpot sprite should not be synced at all I believe. Then each peer will update and see their own, and the host will have a copy of each peer's AimSpot, but the host will not sync each AimSpot to all the other peers.

    I realize that but how do I make it so that the host/peer only see their AimSpot?

  • I made my from from the multiplayer real-time game example, and I can't seem to figure out how to make the AimSpot sprite only visible to the player using it.

    I tried syncing the object and doing a "playerID" instance variable to make them player specific but that seems to not do anything at all.

  • Hey so soon once I got a alpha version done i'l put it up on steam greenlight with a video and all of that. But it might take a very, very long time. I have a few plans set in stone right now but any feedback or suggestions would be fantastic. Everyone joins the same room but there are of course very few functions this is practically a multiplayer test. Just click on this link and log in to try it out.
