  • ok, so was just able to watch the spiderball video and it's a bit trickier if you want to move along the surfaces. In this case you could switch the gravity direction perhaps using rexrainbow's gravitation plugin (https://www.scirra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=153&t=70521&hilit=gravity) when you detect which side of the player has collided.

    Many ways to skin a cat here though...

  • The game I am developing actually does what you ask -> http://youtu.be/EfZcmWmxIUs

    The simplest way for you to do it is to make the player a physics object. Then on a collision with an object you just turn off the physics. In my game things get more complicated as I need to detect which side has collided to know how I should rotate the player. I'm not sure if you need to do that though

  • That link goes to a screenshot program website...

  • Are you using VS2013?

  • You should be able to see it. Look at my example.

    As you can see my GV is called GlobalVar and is created at the top and then specified in a "set text" action.

  • If you're exporting as a mobile app then you can use cranberries 'Phonegap Powermanagement' plugin. If you are using a browser on a mobile device then you can't.

  • Just store the starting position and angle. Then do;

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Every Tick:

    enemy: >Move forward 1.5 pixels towards starting position

    Set angle to starting angle.

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    Then do a comparison to see if the player's position and angle is equal to the starting values. At which point you tell the enemy to resume its original behavior.

  • So you have two ways of doing it.

    Either you make a sprite for each and every combination. if you have a lot of combination you will have to make a huge amount of sprites... which wouldn't be practical.

    The second is to create all the items separate sprites. In game you would need to save what items the player has selected. When player is loaded you will need to find out what items they have from the save file. Then pin each one to the player. However, you really need to think about how you do your animations when using this method.

  • So yes you could. However, it would be a huge undertaking and as it would be done in C2 it would be even more bloated.

  • You need to do some specific stuff. Follow this tutorial to get it working -> https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/1002/como-subir-t-juego-y-jugarlo-desde-dropbox

  • This is an awesome tool for beginner artists who want a consistent art style!

    I wonder... using your tool could you export a sprite and add it to the tool dynamically as a new object?

  • No problem and thanks. If you need help at any time just fire me a PM.

  • Try Construct 3

  • Not as such.

    You maybe able to do it a hacky way by doing a "Save as project...". Which saves it as multiple files. Close C2. Then opening the event sheet xml with a text editor. Do a search and replace. Save and open in C2.

  • I've not played trivia crack. However, what you asking is relatively simple.

    You would first need to create an array. On start up you set the size of the array, then set a question to each point of the array and then set text to a random point in the array.

    Then whenever you need a new question just again randomly select another point in the array.

    I have attached a very simple capx which does the above. A new question is generated each time you click the question text.

    I hope this helps!

  • So the bad news is when I released a windows 8 app the IAP and adverts wasn't functional. The good news is you can use cranberrygame's IAP and Ads plugins now -> https://www.scirra.com/forum/plugin-cordova-related-c2-plugins-crosswalk_t109586
