  • try every tick condition instead of while loop. while loop does things in a single frame, and it never finishes in your case

    if car movement is not required, try this: scirra.com/tutorials/129/mousemoves-following-the-cursor

  • use System - Compare two values for condition. set first value Sprite.X

    not sure what you mean by enabling scoring board, but you can use Sprite - set visible or fade behavior

  • Not sure Construct's renderer would play nice with the code there, but you could see if you can forward the commands to R0J0hounds' Canvas plugin somehow, or re-draw them from events in the plugin:

    do you mean hardcoding the generated javascript in canvas plugin's source code, or modifying canvas plugin to accept javascript?

    manually converting the javascript to events is too tedious. there are 41 frames, 4 shapes each frame in that one sprite

    not-worthy-of-bump edit:

    In the end I exported each shape and used events to stick them together.

  • Maybe this tutorial will help you, https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/615/cr ... rite-sheet

    nope.

    judging from your other posts you are not reading questions at all...

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • I ripped a sprite from a flash game with jpexs. when exported as pngs it takes 2.4mb, while exporting as html5 canvas takes 180kb.

    That's some bandwidth saved, but I can't figure out how to use it in C2.

    Here's what the generated javascript look like

    //some initialization code
var canvas=document.getElementById("myCanvas");
var ctx=canvas.getContext("2d");
enhanceContext(ctx);
var ctrans = new cxform(0,0,0,0,255,255,255,255);

//a shape
function shape17(ctx,ctrans,frame,ratio,time){
	drawPath(ctx,"M 950 780 L 138 563 262 100 1074 317 950 780 ");
	ctx.save();
	ctx.clip();
	ctx.transform(19.33929443359375,5.16876220703125,-5.181884765625,19.2901611328125,262,100);
	ctx.transform(1.0238095238095237,0,0,1.0416666666666667,-0.5,-0.5);
	var fimg = ctrans.applyToImage(image13);
	var pat=ctx.createPattern(fimg,"repeat");
	ctx.fillStyle = pat;
	ctx.fillRect(-16384,-16384,32768,32768);
	ctx.restore();
}
//more shapes omitted

//an image
