  You can spawn all available spots with smaller squares, then randomly spawn non overlapping larger squares and delete the covered small squares after.

  It won't work in preview, but it should be fine when you export and publish.

  You can do it, but only with a nw.js standalone export.

  On file dropped

  Triggered after the user drag-and-drops a file in to the application window. The DroppedFile expression contains the path to the file that was dropped in, allowing you to load it to read its contents.

  You can make one version of your game with host events only, and a client version that only joins rooms as peers.

  The official multiplayer tutorials are well written and about as simple as it gets.

  You can use a central server as the host with the multiplayer plugin, you'll just need a dedicated server to join as the host and stay online.

  Filtering collisions on the solid behavior was addressed in construct.net/en/make-games/releases/beta/r123

  Turret properties

  Range

  The range, in pixels, that the turret can detect targets in. Any targets further away from the turret than this distance will be ignored.

  So a circle with 200 pixel diameter centered on your turret will represent a range of 100.

  Push notifications are likely outside the scope of Construct and more along the lines of hosting/backend cloud services, so I wouldn't expect support for that ever.

  Local notification support on the other hand, would be pretty great to have.

  If I recall correctly there were some third party plugins for C2 that facilitated this capability. No idea where C3 stands though.

  Same idea. Use the pathfinding "On Arrived" trigger to start the next leg/return trip. You can use an instance variable to keep track of which direction you are going, or rather where you need to go next.

  There are a few ways to do this. You can use the sine behavior for simple back and forth motions.

  Or you can try tween x/y from base to rock. On finished, trigger another tween that goes the other way and repeat.

  Writing a high quality tutorial would be an excellent way to contribute to the community in a more official manner than a simple project file.

  I agree with the previous post's suggestion of just making animation frames.

  But here is an over engineered solution for fun - dropbox.com/s/o2hi951wzoquaoe/circularcanvasmask.c3p

  You can turn off the blend mode on the canvas object to see how it renders. You could also probably draw the circle itself with another canvas if you wanted.

  You can also manually invoke downloads of text files via the browser object, formatted as you wish.
