  • Hello;

    You know how a lazer burst hits the nearly transparent spherical shield of a space ship and it lights up for a few seconds and fades? Is there an effect combination that does this--it needs to take a radius (shield size) and an angle (where it was hit) and an intensity (so it can fade).

    Just wondering if someone knows an effect combo or something that can do this.

    Thanks for your time.

  • Is overlapping at xy offset and angle offset--we want to check not just for offset, but also for angle offset.

  • Thanks Magistross. It looks like that works.

  • Hello;

    I have a UID I pass to a function and I want to know if this is an instance of an object in a specific family (like is UID a member of the "enemy" family?).

    thanks for your time.

  • I liked the demo, but it would be nice to have a few optional binary systems that slowly circle even when not scrolling. The occasional super nova too (as an option of course).

    Also a few distant galaxies.

    Just sayin. Nice work.

  • Write something really really small first.

  • Hello;

    Suppose I want to use an array of values in a function. I create the array, use it, then exit the function. Do I have to destroy the array before I exit?

    Also, if I resize an array, I noticed it changes the UID of the object. Is that old UID still around, is this a memory leak?

    thanks for your time.

  • I type faster than I click. The endless clicking and picking that goes with coding in C2 is the real pain.

  • Thanks lots little Stain.

    And thank you Little Hornet.

  • Hello;

    If I am checking for a sprite colliding with the same kind of sprite I have

    Cog on collision with Cog

    How do I reference the first Cog, the one that did the colliding? They are both the same kind of sprite.

    How do I reference the second Cog?

    Is there some kind of "other" in this situation like in game maker?

    Thanks for your time.

  • I was up all night worrying about this and Ashley never answered my question (its a question just like Nesteris' which he didn't really answer either).

    I wrote my code on my PC and it was fine. But when I put it on my IPhone I had to put the phone right up close to my face for the screen to seem to be the same size. Is this a problem with HTML5? I think not. Is there some kind of difference between an IPhone and my PC that C2 has a hard time handling? Is C2 the problem?

    Why do I have to write two different kinds of code to handle something C2 should handle.

    Do other designers notice this problem? Do you have to put the iphone right next to your face for it to seem the same size on your PC? If I have to go to GameMaker or Unity to solve this I will be very annoyed.

  • Heres the problem I'm having.

    I wrote a game in C2 on a layout that was 1024 by 768. Everything seemed fine on my desktop. When I put it on my iphone though it was REALLY SMALL.

    Ashley, can I send you my capx and can you explain why it is so small on my IPhone?
