for virus scanners, i recommend avira's antivir; it's free but don't let that fool you, it's actually one of the best scanners available with the better ones beating it only by speed on scans but antivir still scans at decent speeds and the better ones require money.

this post probably sounds like an automated advertisement but it's not, it's a manually typed advertisement the only reason i advocate it is because i've done secondary research and came to the conclusion that this program isn't just giving you the best bang for your buck but it's just the best one available!

that's awesome! i don't know if there's anything that will break the loop but the logic is definitely correct and we now know of another way to accomplish the same thing! great job Vrav!

i can't seem find the Sprite.Left, Sprite.Right, etc functions? where are they?

to be honest, i don't know all of the functions available in construct so just play around with the events, conditions, and actions and if you find that something could be accomplished more efficiently, please, let everyone know!

heh, no problem. i want to know if there is anything i could improve on though, like putting in more or less detail in the explanations, what i should focus on more, etc.

oh, that can be changed by altering the value used for the "runTimer" from 10 to a larger number for a longer input period

err ... why do you get scary feelings about forum members being malicious? :S

it's may not be much but it will help those who don't know how to achieve this.

It's also documented and all that jazz.

edit:

Vrav's version using sub events as well as eliminating the use of detectors for collision detection. it may seem trivial but when games become larger eliminating certain things can provide you with the virtual resources you require!

errr, the game you are recalling is micro machines which i also think is awesome but that game and this one are not the same thing

I don't enjoy having to draw figures every single time I have cool ideas for clothing so I have made templates for myself to make the process easier.

Here are the template figures. They became slanted from the scanning process, gotta fix that. Question: how do I scale these images with bbcode?

no, i wasn't scared by the game itself but my current project has the same basic idea and the thought of others thinking that i'd copied this game scared me. however, my ideas for gameplay are significantly different so that's a big relief but as it stands, the principal ideas are the same which still scares me a bit!

i'm not really going to divulge my game concept at the moment but the game that the above link will take you to will provide you with a good idea of what could be expected. i will look for assistance at a later time when the design documentation begins to reach completion.

that's some effin awesome use of 3d boxes! the bounce is really annoying though, mostly because it's unrealistic, other than that, the level is awesome to look at!
