Can you clarify it a bit more. What is supposed to happen after the score limit is reached before going to the next layout?

Not really sure what you're struggling with here. Are you trying to create your own tileable textures, or are you looking for the mentioned jungle tileset?

If you're looking for the jungle tileset, I think you can download this for free once you've purchased a license for Construct 2.

If you're trying to create your own tile-able tileset, just google: "tileable texture tutorial" and pick one you understand/like.

This is a good one to start with:

Have you tried it like this:

Condition: When (disk) is overlapping with (player)

Action: Destroy (disk)

Hi McDonald & fisholith,

Apologies for the late response, I wasn't near a computer for the last couple days.

I think you both meant the same thing and were both right, because it's working now. I'm not very good at math or programming however (being a designer rather than the former), so the very detailed description from fisholith was extremely helpful. Couldn't have done it without all the explanation, thanks to the both of you!

Cheers & have a great weekend!

Hi

I'm creating a top down racing game, and everything is working great. The only problem I have is that the car steers very abruptly. I know the steering can be edited by changing the steer speed value. Setting the steering speed to a lower value causes the car to have a huge turning radius tho, which is not what I want since this makes maneuvering between objects to hard for the player.

Is there a way to have the car steer faster the longer the player holds the key down?

Thanks in advance

This is precisely what I was looking for. Muchos gracias Lordshiva1948

Hi, my name is Mathijs (Unless you're Dutch you'll pronounce that wrong. I guarantee it.)

I started playing games when I was about four years old on our home PC, which still used DOS at the time. Since then I've never stopped playing videogames, and I don't plan on ever doing so. Although I've had a lot of dream jobs since I was a kid, I'm now completely focused on making games. The reason for this is that games have always been an important and happy part in my life and I want to create similar experiences for others. Carry on tradition!

Hopefully I'll graduate somewhere in the next six months, and become a pro game designer.

Cheers, and game on!

Thanks for your reply

I've tried, but I think the problem is that it has to change relatively to the original value. I've tried testing this by having the value multiply by 0.5. This is because the player will be able to install upgrades to his car, which means the original value is not always the same. Therefor it is impossible to change this value to a definite number, when the overlapping takes place.

I.e.. Say the player upgraded his car's max speed from 100 to 150. And he would then drive this car over a patch of sand. If the overlapping changes the max speed value to 50, it would be half of the original value, but only a third of the upgraded value. Therefor it would not matter to the player whether he had upgraded his max speed or not, which would kill the entire upgrading system. This is why the changes made must be relative, and not absolute.

Also the value must be restored once the car is no longer overlapping the patch of sand.

I could send you the .capx link in a PM, so you can have a better look at it.

Edit: I cannot link the file in a comment since you need at least 300 rep to be able to do this. A link through PM requires at least 500, so that won't be possible either.

Edit: Edit: Yaaay, 300 rep! Here's a dropbox link to the .capx file: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/48511605/GO4Dakar_BasicPhysics.capx

I'm trying to create a top down rally racing game. The car is supposed to react to the type of terrain it is currently driving on, which means that driving over sand will have a greater performance penalty than driving over rocks. I have tried working with the collision and overlapping features in the event sheet, but without any luck.

I'm not a programmer, so I really don't know where to look. I also tried using instance variables, although I think they're not meant for this.

Any help or tips would be highly appreciated!

Mathijs
