  • I agree with points 2 and 3. Especially 3 as this just drives me insane.

    As far as 1 goes, I don't move away from bugs, I hit them as I go... I mean yesterday it took me nearly 7 hours to just figure one out and 'fix' it.. (check my latest thread and you'll understand.)

  • Oh so you want to make Terraria hey?

    Steps:

    1)Copy the game

    2)??????

    3)Look at your poor re-creation of a multi-million (check that) software.

    Try and do something original... not just an upfront copy. Why did Terraria get the big bucks? Because it was original...

    Now, most new ideas (universally, not just in technology,) new IP are bits grabbed from here and there but actually re-designed and genuinely fresh ideas.

    Why should a consumer buy your knock off Rolex watch, which doesn't work well, for (take the price down a bit) $40 when he could just save for $90 and get the real deal?

    Hm. But anyway, just use the forum to look for randomly generated ground and digging tutorials from the FAQ, which is pretty easy to find if you were to look and not get completely spoonfed.

    Sulli out.

  • shinkan haha that's taken me since 3pm UK time and its 10:34 now! Thank you so much.. for.. miracles.. but also the effort :)

  • shinkan well s**t. I dunno what you did, I mean the code isn't even changed, but clearly just being on your pc fixed it back to normal.

    I can't thank you guys enough- THANK

  • Off screen! But when I use "NOT on screen" there is a 6 second delay as seen earlier which causes it to look unfinished!

  • shinkan ahhhh, "the right edge of the layout".. do you mean where I've put that brown line to mark 500,900px or the actual edge of your screen?

    It only destroys right after the brown strip for me.

  • Hmm... Me thinks I've gotta re-install Chrome.

    Thanks guys, will report back.

    The following link is a link to a minimized capx file, but still with the required parts inside.

    Please let me know if anything can be done, thank you all.

  • blackhornet did that previously. But thank you.

    shinkan apologies, I have been really vague but as mentioned by someone else before I don't really want to post my files.

    I am closer to solving this issue, I believe it is due to some animation, dodgy events and poor event prioritizing.

    Thank you all.

  • shinkan I understand. Your solution was great, until I realised it wouldn't work on mobiles as it is not in full screen mode.

    Turn on "Scale outer" and you end up with them 'dying' too soon.

    My system used to work, until I messed with something else :/ (still no idea what) and that system worked no matter what screen size.

  • blackhornet would type of thing am I looking for? Never actually gone through proper debugging :S

  • blackhornet -- I don't quite understand how Construct's compiled data actually works in the 'real world of programming' per-se but I will assume as you suggested that it will work.

    I will try that first and then strip down the cap if it comes to it. Thanks all for your help, check back by half past :)

    Please can you link me? Can't find it.

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Suikama I have followed both guidelines, but to no avail.

    There is still a delay, Whiteclaws I have re-written it, 3 times in fact, but still perhaps not well enough......

    Suikama I can only conclude that my computer/game believes that my monitor is bigger than it actually is! But why it thinks that is another question...

  • Events:

    Zombie> NOT on screen>>>>>>>Destroy Zombie

          > Outside of layout>>>Subtract 1 from (global) Lives (your health)

    __________________________________________________________________________

    This works; however, there is a brief delay (6 seconds) which makes it look.. crap.

    I will post a link in a second.

  • Ok guys, this is all true, to begin with:

    I have a bug, I know what it is, I don't know 'code' wise why it happens but I understand the logic of why it happens.

    I can't think of a fix, it has been 3 hours and I just can't think of anything, it is so fundamental (and has broken alongside multiple other fundamental smaller changes) that it has to stay (scoring system.)

    How would you go about finding a fix for a bug?

    This is driving me insane.

    Thank you <img src="smileys/smiley18.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
