  This shows in their project, but me adding a function doesn't result in a function showing up over there.

  I'm following a capx example and I'm trying add a function to a project without any functions in it. I understand I add functions from the event screen not right clicking the object types. I get one, but it doesn't look like this. Also when I add mine, I don't have a Function object over in my Object Types like the project example has.

  Functions are something I've not done much with so I just trying to make sure I follow their example step by step to insure it works.

  

  Thanks!

  awesome thanks for that lead. I've never used the tile system to any extent on a project so this is a great way to see how it can be utilized like this. Thanks for making this awesome suggestion!

  Hey this example for some reason no longer works. I'm using 218 stable version. could that be an issue? I'm running the project and it just stays black. I'm at a place where I'm able to apply this technique.

  Just odd that it just stays black now. Wondering if something broke due to C3 changes?

  Thanks!

  Caleb

  yea i do want it to feel like it's line by line.

  however that is an excellent suggestion using a mask that would be itself a full screen array of images that one at a time would disappear and reveal the image behind it.

  if i'm following you correctly.

  here's another example.. this was an output html file from one of these converter sites..

  part12studios.com/games/rd_bbs/ansi-art.html

  if i could get this to feed like my splash intro.. i'd be good to go. just not sure how it could be done. i know Construct can work with html but not sure how i'd present it to construct to know what to do with it.

  I have a website i'd like to make and i want to emulate the experience of a dial up BBS.. here is a monochrome example I did so far and i'm pleased with the results:

  part12studios.com/games/rd_bbs/rd_bbs_04

  however, i'd love to have color graphics using a site like this

  manytools.org/hacker-tools/convert-image-to-ansi-art

  to do the conversion. i can do monochrome simply copy / pasting.. but color data gets lost. this site has other options like html exporting and wonder how it could be done.

  I have considered using layers and each layer be it's own color but this will be a bit of a pain to test and work up over time.

  I'm really trying to figure out also how i might plausibly display modern graphics in a way that might feel legit.. but that's a stretch for it to feel legit.. maybe some kind of loading screen happens before before showing images,

  but yea for the website i'm trying to get images that look more like this:

  google.com/search

  Any thoughts?

  Hi there, I have a little runner / platformer that i'm pretty happy with, however I'm using the vanilla platformer jump and of course it's very static.. Just trying to come up with a simple way that would allow me to vary how high the player jumps based on how long they press the screen.

  In my case running speed is constant (think canabalt) so i'm not trying to do EVERYTHING like mario but just the jump idea of press and jump with a tap vs a short touch or long touch all yield some different results.

  Thanks,

  Caleb

  thanks Ashley, good to know that. :)

  would it be possible to make debug as a default option in the next update?

  just be a nice to have a choice to make it default.

  I was going through the options and debug as default for new test builds doesn't seem to be an option that i could find.

  I've found myself wishing i could always load debug as it's just nice to not have to do the drop down each time to find the specific debug build choice.. would be nice to just click play and always open in debug

  Thanks,

  Caleb
