  Hi Ashley

  I was working in Stable R241 and during the work I noticed a notification that R250 is release < I don't know if it has anything to do with my problem but just putting it out there.

  Then when I saved the progress next time, C3 crashed. I reloaded and tried to open project folder and it gave the standard error Failed to open project. Check it is a valid Construct 3 folder project.

  I even tried to open an earlier saved version (an hour or so older) but same error message.

  Now I seem to have lost all progress done so far, which was quite a lot.

  Can you help recover?

  Thanks,

  Umar

  Turret angle should be set where mouse cursor is at (or an invisible sprite following the mouse cursor that defines the angle point).

  Okay. That added some clarity, and character is controlled by keyboard ?

  Do you mean mouse cursor following the character? If yes, how would that work out play-ability wise ?

  Or you mean a cursor sprite that follows the character?

  Hi Derek,

  Sounds interesting, can you drop me a message at readumar at gmail, would definitely want to hear more about your plans.

  Unsure if you can find a video call plugin for C3.

  I don't have any example files as I just described what I'd attempt to do if I want to implement it in C3. By the way, why would you need to do this? Why not just use existing video call apps for the purpose?

  Unsure about it but it definitely had some problem as it raised some flags with Google AdMob which then effected my account.

  Agree with Sebastien there. For some unknown reason to me, Desktop definitely works better than in browser.

  In your shared pic, there doesn't seem to be a Condition check for the particular instance variable. It doesn't have to be Instance Variable, it can be a simple Boolean variable as well.

  In case you're unable to put in a Condition for Boolean variable check, drop me an email at readumar at gmail, I'll take a quick look at your game and fix it.

  Thanks,

  Umar

  Fairly simple if you add an Instance Variable to whichever object you want spawn control on. When the hero dies, it can be set to False and spawning stops.

  Thanks,

  Can think of one rudimentary way,

  1. User Media working on both

  2. User A clicks button, User Media begins recording User A video

  3. Records for 1 second, send the file to User B

  4. User B window plays the file automatically

  5. Process repeats for every second from point no. 2 above

  6. Process mirrors for User B from point no.2 - point no.5

  Does it make any sense?

  Try doing it, drop a message when you incur a problem. It shouldn't be a problem though.

  Thanks,

  Hi,

  Here is the step by step process,

  1. Make a Node JS script to handle incoming checks from the game, resources

  https://www.w3schools.com/nodejs/default.asp

  https://github.com/websockets/ws

  2. Host it on AWS Lambda, resources

  https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/nodejs-prog-model-handler.html

  https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda/latest/dg/programming-model.html

  3. Add connection and process checks with Websocket using C3, resources

  https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/plugin-reference/websocket

  That's pretty much all you need. Not sure if I could find you a documentary to help with it, but the resources and documentation mentioned in my list above are more than sufficient. Also Udemy definitely has courses to learn Node JS.

  Drop me a message on readumar at gmail if something is unclear, it's faster for me to respond that way.

  Thanks,

  Umar
