  • How do I Slowly increase a background image as to give the illusion that you are falling towards it.

    I was thinking like every 5 seconds +2 to width and height but I cant seem to get it right, with the expressions I mean.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  • lol

  • Worked a treat!

    Think I accidentally set the scale below 1.0, its all ok now, much appreciated for all your help!

  • ah now that I didn't know I will check this now I think this may be the problem.

    Thanks

  • Thanks for finding the above^ I will try the solutions.

    One thing that is weird is its not just a black bar on the one side you can actually see through it like as if the viewport is overlapped the layout so you can see behind the level.

    But I swear on older versions of construct you could change the viewport width and height, as well as layout size but I may be wrong.

  • ye the device uses a 16:9 ratio, also if the ratio was wrong wouldn't there be gaps on both sides of the screen not just the one side.

  • Ye the part which threw me when I read the manual was where is says it only affects the layout view and had no effect when previewing, but didn't know if that meant it still effected it when exported.

    Ok thanks for the reply it may be down to something else then.

  • Do margins effect the way the layout is displayed on a mobile device as at the moment I have been exporting using cocoonjs and crosswalk to test and they both come out perfectly height wise but on the width there is a 1cm gap line on the right side of screen where u can see the goings on behind the game level.

    my margins are set to H- 500, W- 500

    My layout size is 1024 - 576, I set it to this so it is 16:9 ratio to hopefully support more screen sizes.

  • Lol ye that would be quite different.

  • Thanks for the reply's, I see your points I think I will leave it out.

    much appreciated!

  • I was thinking about my UI, does it need an about page at the main menu to say about the author and other information?

    What do you guys think is this needed?

  • That's what shirokuma is trying to tell you there are tutorials which have that very feature in them so if you take a look at them you can see how they are done.

  • Also setting your game to a 16:9 ratio resolution might help, I had the same problem the other day and changing my layout size to a 16:9 ratio worked a treat.

  • Ye in the end I decided that crosswalk was maybe better for the project I was doing so I pursued that course.
