  • Thank u very much I'll try it

    One more thing, the server and client, in this example, are both made in construct! ....and I was trying to create a game with a server running natively in javascript

  • Hi

    I'm following a tutorial series to create a MMO (RPG) for a GM:Studio, I don't quite like the way UI is handle over there so I tried to port the ideia to Construct 2, one of the main things I had to worrie about when using websockets was the buffers get concatnated:

    MESSAGEAMESSAGEBMESSAGEC....
[/code:22b1lh81]

I had to use the first byte of each message to store the message lenght:

[code:22b1lh81]
5MESSAGEA7MESSAGEB4MESSAGEC
[/code:22b1lh81]

this way I would know the size and seperate them:

[code:22b1lh81]
5MESSAGEA
7MESSAGEB
4MESSAGEC
[/code:22b1lh81]

as Construct 2 uses json strings I don't know if I need to do this anymore, can anyone give me some guidance?!

Thank you

  • How can one clear a path (turn it transparent) can it be implemented?

  • R0J0hound

    I wanted to ask for a request for this plugin I think it would help a lot with the light casting issue.

    Isn't it possible to had a clear path?! of fill with transparent?!

    This way we could past the object light to the canvas and then clear the shadow part leaving us with fully transparent canvas only with the

    light "minus" shadows.. this canvas could be easely "destination out"

    and the layer background painted as black!!... this way a layer underneath it would be revealed :D

    What do you think?! ;)

  • thehorseman007 u're right and I don't mind paying for it :D

    (if it is between acceptable limits) I've already paid for the Personal Version so

  • AnD4D

    Have been trying to for 5 hours now.. with no luck.. think I'm missing something :/

  • For my project I need flash light and (normal) lamp light, and I need the rest of the screen to be completly dark!

    AnD4D

    I haven't tryed it yet... I looked at your samples the one you've made is very good and fast :) the other one is just toooooo slow.. 15fps :/

    I'll try it today, maybe tomorrow :)

  • R0J0hound will try your last post :D if I fail I will ask you to post a little sample file :)

  • Amazing R0J0hound :) very good and fast implementation, why is there no native plugin for this? :) and canvas plugin too! You rock, I thought it wasn't even possible to do do such things in C2.

  • This is more like a request, and not a bug report. lucid do you think you can give us an example of Spriter usage for animating a front view character walking towards. Are there tools that can help with that?

    OR a top view character.. for a 8-directional movement.

    Thanks

  • I think I should have posted under "General"! Please move it there :)

  • I think that there is no request section and if there is I'm realy sorry for not posting there (but I didn't find anyone).

    I wanted to request all the coders and scirra team itself for a 2D lighting system. Something like:

    Light Cast Behavior

    Shadow Cast Behavior

    (this way we could select the objects that should have shadow)

    the light object would cast the light (select color, intensity...) and the Shadow behavior would make the light stop spreading when hitting the given object. Directional light would also be great (flashlight) :D

    What do you think?!

    Thank u for your atention and sorry for any inconvinience.

    And I don't mind paying for it :)

  • I was planning on creating a rewind effect for my game, for that I thought of storing each sprite's positions on screen into an array, so there should be one for each object. can I attach a array to an object? how can i do this? is there a better way? thank u!

  • Hi everyone!

    How can I change to text color from one word inside the string object?

    something like:

    <color="blue">Hello<color>

    <color="black">World<color>

    is this possible? I saw a post on Construct Classic (from 2011).. and it wasn't possible, it's 2013 and we have Construct 2.

    Am I any lucky? xD loool

    If there's no native way, is there a custom plugin for it?!

  • Thank you for the help!
