  • Image points can no longer go outside image (for instance -4,-8). This was an awesome feature, and I don't understand why it would be removed when it was so good. Limiting the points to within the image size is limiting the possiblities, it worked perfectly before!

    Many of my images still have points outside the image size, so I can't really touch those images any more :(

  • I'm not interested in achievements or using them in my games, but I think I'd probably put them in anyway because it would be interesting to track statistics of players (like how many get upto a specific level or use a certain feature).

  • Doesn't matter any more, with Steam Greenlight coming out in a month.

  • Duplicating actions & events is a great way to save time when you can use "back" and "next" (bottom right of the window), to quickly change the object you want to apply it to however it doesn't work when you do it with behaviours even if the new object you're trying to apply it to has the same behaviour.

    Example:

    _

    <img src="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1024727/c2/back1.PNG" border="0" />

    1. Making a copy

    2. Here I've gone to edit action, then clicked back and selected a new object then gone next again but it hasn't highlighted the action I want (chose the first on the list instead).

    3. Wrong action! Since I gather back/next feature was to save time, you usually do this quickly and sometimes forget to highlight the correction action for behaviour related ones.

    4. What it should look like.

    I also have a small feature request that would speed up eventing A LOT!

    <img src="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/1024727/c2/back5.PNG" border="0" />

    Instead of using back/next we could just double click on the object area to quickly open a window with the objects, so you can assign the action to a different object instead of going back and forth!

  • Or you could save it to a dropbox folder :P

  • They've had a break this week, so probably a few weeks.

  • Not really any interesting questions there for experienced Construct users.

  • Oh thanks rex! I missed that somehow.

  • Do you think you could make this work with a hex grid? You'd maybe just make 1 side of it allow for cutting corners and the other not, I think anyway.

    Here is a pic to show difference between hex and sqaure grid:

  • Trshoid only has ~150 objects, should run fine for everyone.

  • I added another sprite to a family in version 99 and its working fine for me, everything family related appears to work the same.
