  Yes, that clears it up. I will test it out. Thanks!

  Joe7,

  I'm not exactly sure where to put the myscript.js, so the example keeps failing. I specified a the location in the capx before exporting, and I also put the myscript.js in the same folder as the index.html, but no go.

  I think i am missing something obvious.

  See? I knew there would be a more elegant solution.

  Here is the capx again, with R0J0's information:

  What an inspiring piece of work! You have inspired me to write a game for my wife (who I also have been with for 10 years and was recently married).

  Good job, gammabeam!

  Hi PixelAmp!

  Can you provide a capx of the project? It would be a lot easier to assist you if we can see what is going on ourselves.

  You can use DropBox if you need a file host.

  3DGS,

  Speed = Distance/Time, so you need to determine the distance traveled by the cannon ball in a specific period of time, like every tick.

  Here is a modified capx: dl.dropbox.com/u/38038537/Speedofball_modified.capx

  This was just a quick and dirty example, and I'm sure there must be a more elegant solution (perhaps even built-in).

  simply...he says.

  Yeah, "simply." It's hard for geniuses like Kyatric to remember what it's like to be as lowly as us.

  Dobandon, I think it's a really fun and challenging game. I am not worthy, because I had to finally give up on level 3 and pay attention to my wife. <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  I noticed I kept getting stuck on the edges of the blocks, which a few times messed up the flow of the game and caused me to die. I haven't worked with platformers in C2, so I don't know if that is correctable.

  A good effort all around!

  R0J0hound: Great example, R0J0.

  Now can you animate someone opening that can after bouncing around so much? <img src="smileys/smiley17.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  It looks really nice, TastyBytes. Did you make all of the art yourself?

  That will be a nice advertisement for C2! You should get an Advertising Executive forum badge for your efforts! <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  rexrainbow: Oh, I see what you mean now. Yeah, I was considering implementing something like that with events, but it's much cleaner the way you did it. Do you care if I keep it as part of the plug-in?

  Nice plug-in! I think it will be very useful.
