  I agree, layer changes when you have a lot of levels is a PAIN!

  I'd be tentative about a 'global layer', however. Chances are, you will not want it on the main menu!

  Construct 2 already caches the game's files so that the game only has to be downloaded once.

  That's nice! Even so, If I were you, I'd look for a different method of hosting as you are really not supposed to do this.

  To host my game on KG, I just asked around and a friend of mine happened to have a server ;)

  Are you sure the bandwidth limit is that high? I thought it was lower. Hmm.

  If you want to work out the constant, use this formula:

  constant = object angle range / slider X range.

  (it's either that or the other way around, I'm pretty sure ;))

  Your images are broken, but if you just want to set the angle of an object dependent on the position of a slider, just use this formula:

  angle = ((slider current X - slider initial X) * constant)

  Where 'constant' will change depending on how much you want it to turn for some movement of the slider.

  I'm sure tom just missed it. You could send him an email if you like, I suppose.

  Just a side-effect of using something for something outside of its intended purpose ;)

  I'd look at Physics, as Ashley said, or Custom movement.
