  • On the layout right click, or double click the background to 'Insert a new object' and select the Mouse. (or Touch, which will take clicks from a mouse or touch screen.)

  • You guys may have stumbled on something no one else has noticed yet. In which case it should be reported.

    Is it something you can recreate in a small capx, or does it have to be a big save?

    I was planning on using it as an "Undo" saving before each turn. So I may be helping in the search soon enough.

  • Hmm, sounds like a bug.

    I would add a second condition to that event to also check "is mobile?" so it would exclude the IE 10..

  • Click on one of the objects that is showing from layout to layout, and check it's properties for the global setting. If it's on, turn it off.

    4th line down in the object's properties bar.

    Name: Enemy

    Plugin: Sprite

    UID: ##

    Global: No

  • I didn't see this when you originally posted, did you put in in the tutorial section? It can still link to your YouTube tutorial. It would be a good one to have there, plus you get Rep rewards.

  • The best advice is probably to pick a tutorial that makes a full game that you can add your own ideas to. Or grab one of the examples that come with construct and turn it into your own game.

    Decide what piece you want to work on next and search the forums and tutorials for similar solutions. Spend your first days just trying to make all the parts work together. You will learn a little with each part, but don't worry about not knowing everything as long as it's working the way you want. Most of your knowledge will come from debugging research.

  • Actually it sounds like you have objects set to "Global" which makes them appear on all layouts..

  • In the past I just destroyed all unpinned, it cleaned it all up. (That was before containers)

  • That's what it says at the bottom.

  • Link to .capx file (required!):

    In editor

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Select a layer

    2. Click on background color in properties

    3. try to type 3 comma separated numbers for a color

    Observed result:

    You can't type commas in that field.

    Also the numbers vanish, so there is no way to copy colors.

    edit: Affects all color entry fields

    Expected result:

    You can manually enter the color you used on a previous layer, or paste it.

    Browsers affected:

    n/a

    Construct 2 version:

    r139 64bit

    (I think everyone already knows this one, but I'm trying to copy a bunch of colors, and frustrated.)

    I suspect the displayed color is replaced by an editable field when clicked on, but the field is number only, so the text is left out. Thus, changing the number field to text should fix the disappearing numbers.

  • LittleStain, You were more thorough though. <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

    The Tiled sprite might be a little less overhead, but it made me think with the sprite, you could put a dark line around the edge, and when stretched it would make a vignette like an old photograph.

  • I would probably make a small gray 70% transparent sprite and stretch it to cover the whole scene, but put in Z-order under the counter so it shows clear.

  • Does it run when you link directly to the Exported folder after you upload it?

    for example on my site linking directly to the exported folder:

    http://visualparadox.com/games/pucked/

    and I also have it in the Iframe:

    http://visualparadox.com/games/pucked.asp

    The iframe if you want to compare it with yours:

    <iframe

         src="pucked/index.html"

         width="800" height="600"

         style="margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px; width:800px; height:600px;"

         frameborder="10"

         id="game_iframe"

         alt="game, app, application, play, puzzle, marble, coin, touch, ios, android, lite, pucked, games, apps, marbles"

         title="Pucked">

    <iframe closing>

    Sounds like it might be your "src=" is the URL correct?

  • Right click on the event and select "Invert" which as you seem to have gathered, means the opposite.

  • I tried to run it in windows, and click getting the first bang. Then it stops with a Java error, Console undefined. Could it be you getting the same error on the devices, but it doesn't show the message?

    In other words, turn off the error check?
