    I have tried the snap to grid but its not exactly what i want. Sometimes a simple guide line would be better as it could be placed anywhere rather than at a set grid location.

    Will give that a go, thanks <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

    I have just had a thought. I could design a ruler and import it as a sprite then it could just be dragged around as i need it.

  • Hi, as the title says. It would be nice to have some rulers & guides available along with an adjustable grid for the design side of C2.

  • you could check to see if the object Is sleeping (physics property)

  • I second this. Fade is a really useful behaviour allowing, if nothing else a simple way to time the obects destruction. Access to the properties would be great <img src="smileys/smiley20.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • Hi, i think its because the for loop runs first and doesnt include the pick. The point at which you pick the UID the loop has finished.

  • Hi all,

    i have just read this.

    Dont know whether this is news or not, or whether it would allow testing of android designed games if you dont have a real Android device but its worth a look.

  • Ha, i see now. makes sense really <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> . Funny how easy it is to become blind to simple things.

    Thanks

  • Hey Nimtrix,

    thats nice and neat, thanks <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

    Not sure why mine didnt work though all the same.

  • Hi could someone take a look at this and tell me whats going on.

    The idea is to press space to bring up a selection and choose one of the sprites, let go of the space bar then click the left button to create your choice.

    Two things are happening.

    Selecting the first one works fine but when you click to select the next one the first one is created on the layer underneath.

    The second problem is more puzzling to me. I can select sprites 1 - 4 in order and it does as i would expect, however selecting 4 first means i cant select any of the others.

    If i change the code to select with the right button and create with the left then it works as expected.

    I had hoped to create some sort of easy to access inventory using the left click only.

  • Here is a prime example of the problem. To stop the object being spawned on the layer underneath i would have to put another set of conditions in place. Unless i am missing a better way to do this.

    Not sure if there isnt a bug with the Global variable not updating properly too.

  • I think it would be a good idea to have an option linked to the Layer properties which says any input is directed at that layer.

    In other words if you want to click an object the click only applies to the selected layer. Also if the layer is marked as hidden then the objects on that layer cant be selected.

    I know you can do this by checking whether the layer is visible etc but it would just save time. <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • Looks nice.. but why are you using the bullet behavior on the falling blocks. A lot smoother without.

    Also remove the solid behavior on the objects too.

    Choose circle for the collision mask on the balls

    remove the 2 spare vertex points on the triangle collision polygon. Not sure how much difference that makes though.

  • Why not just add an amount to the sprite height and width ?

  • 45fps on Chrome idle, 25fps on Chrome moving around. Drops to 2fps on Chrome when firing. Processor's temp got quite high as well, 81C.

    Thanks for that. Just wondered if it works on Firefox at all ( regardless of speed)

  • Thanks

    ASHLEY. I realise i cant use this in any meaningful way but i just highlighted the difference between the preview and the Web output.

    I hadn't thought about the error checking etc slowing it down, makes sense i suppose <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
