  • At the moment it's a 32x32 icon. Windows supports bigger ones (Vista up to 256x256) so in future there'll be a way to have a bigger icon.

  • There was a bug in this, but it's fixed now.

    In the next build, you can use 'Read file line by line' and then in a new event the 'On line read' will trigger for every line.

    This is actually pretty interesting.. a part of me wants something to go catastrophically wrong .

  • I think the New Template/Example dialog should cater for more default properties, though more preferences are on their way very soon .

  • AI is completely possible, though of course complex AI would require a lot of work.

    Pathfinding, collision avoidance etc is best done with the RTS behavior, which can do what you mentioned. Programming enemy behavior is a difficult topic to generalise, though there's some examples out there.

  • An SDL port was progressing okay, though I've used Allegro recently and would be inclined to use it in the Construct runtime when multi-platform runtimes come to be made.

    The current SDL fork renders fairly well and quickly, but would be pretty hard to make work on any other platform, so it wouldn't be considered for a while yet.

  • Sounds reasonable and fairly simple; I'll see what I can do for the next build.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • It's much easier to separate objects into multiple instances or groups of objects (such as arms, legs for a big model) than one instance with lots of animations. Shouldn't cause any slow down either.

    You'd want to be careful though with large images as deadeye said; 5mb pngs take a long time to load at runtime into vram.

  • Wow, this looks really promising.

    Will definitely keep an eye on it, javascript is super quick

  • You could also use the Text Manipulator which can read line by line.

  • At a guess I'd say it's the updater failing to connect/being blocked, which would freeze the UI.

    In a future build this should be fixed (update check should time out very quickly if blocked).

  • Just a note, these are now fixed.

    Update your profiles! DETAILS, LOCATION, HOBBIES.
