  • Having a bit of trouble finding an answer for this question on google and can't figure it out myself.

    Basically, I misclicked the 'X' on the tilemap UID tab and now it's gone and I'm unsure how to open it back up. I have a tilemap selected and loaded. It's just that the bar has disappeared.

  • Hello

    Sorry for the 'obvious' questions. I'm just trying to understand how this game engine works.

    I'm creating a space invader like game. I am trying to figure out how to make a meteorite fall from the top of the page, wait 2 seconds, and then another one to fall and repeat like a loop. Once they hit the bottom of the layout then they go back to the top at a random position and repeat continuing the 2 second delay per meteorite falling. So far I've got meteorites falling but they aren't falling from the top. I've basically cloned the same meteorite 10 or so times. They are gliding down but they aren't delayed by 2 seconds and they aren't spawning at the top and resetting when they hit the bottom.

    I do apologize for asking what some would say are simple questions. I've tried google searching answers but they haven't helped. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Hello.

    How do I make a spaceship glide left, right, up and down with either the arrow keys on the keyboard or the W, A, S, D keys on the keyboard. I can't figure out what movement I need and as I'm just a beginner in the field of game development I'm trying to make a game based on the very popular game back in the day called Space Invaders.

    It's the movement that is troubling me.

    If you have time as well, how would I make things drop down from the top of the screen in random positions?

    I've used Scratch as a game design engine before but not Construct but Construct seems like a very good application and I am seriously considering getting the premium version.

    Thanks for the help!
