Under the System object's actions, there's a "Set time scale" action. If you set that to 0, everything using behaviors or TimeDelta based movements will no longer move.

Since you're replacing the motherboard, you'll have to reactivate Windows, not reinstall it. However, I personally suggest a fresh Windows installation after major hardware changes.

Since the Wacom acts as a mouse, it would work for Construct applications using mouse controls. However, you won't be able to take advantage of pressure/tilt sensitivity.

When you right click on a frame in the animation editor and select "Flip frame horizontall/vertically", I think it should flip the hotspot and image points along with the image. As it is now, it only flips the image, which there's already a button for in the image editor.

I really don't think there's a need to make custom platform movements anymore. But, if you do want to make your own, there's a fairly simple way to solve the issue where you get stuck a few pixels below the ground. Something like:
+While +Object overlaps ground -Set Object Y to Object Y - 1 [/code:19dbdkoc] The while in the event will push the object up 1 pixel until said object is no longer overlapping with the ground.

You can use Python to do online play.

Speaking of online play, what happened to that plugin you were working on?

A PHP based system is never going to achieve the responsiveness required for most web games. The only thing you could make work well would be a turn-based-strategy game.

I assume you're talking about Python, in which case you could just google "Python tutorials" to learn the basics of Python in general.

To access Construct objects, the syntax is:
ObjectName.DesiredValue[/code:2iynzz3o] For example: [code:2iynzz3o]Sprite.X = 10[/code:2iynzz3o] This would set the X position of Sprite to 10. You can also set other values, such as the Y position and angle, like this.

1. Not at the moment.

2. Yes, using the File object's "Execute file" action.

The timer event will only run for one frame when it goes off, so you'd have to release Z at the exact moment the timer went off for this to work properly.

It's under the application properties, labeled as "Load textures". You can also override the application settings through the layout properties for individual layouts.

Still, I think it would be cool to fix that "Cut command working as Copy" bug I reported a while ago: It's too noticeable, I showed Construct to some friends at work at most of them found that extremely annoying.

How is it behaving like copy? It seems to be working properly for me.
