I get what you are saying, but it is no reason for people to come back with comments like his poking fun at me and others who like the idea of it. It's that childish like attitude that brings down so many communities.

His comment was a joke, and not aimed at making fun of anyone. The fact someone has independently implemented SDL and Ashley wishes to continue it is a clear indicator of the interest in multi-platform gaming. Most of the people on this board agree that it'd be great to expand the platforms Construct can create for.

The registry is used to store your settings; it's quite similar to an INI file.

Here's an example:

Set key to HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Software\MySoftwareWrite string "Example" to item "Example"

What? Nobody's interested in that.

I thought it was very impressive, probably the most complete game made in Construct yet

That was a pretty sick run

Tilting other players was most fun imo

Big thanks to Gullanian for hosting it.

Suggestion : File Object

To use this plugin, simply drag it on the layout.

EVENTS =

File.LoadText = "c:\text.txt"

File.SaveText = "c:\text.txt"

File.LoadCache* = "c:\file.exe"

File.ClearCache**

File.Cut = "c:\directory\"

File.Copy = "c:\directory\"

File.Delete

--- --- ---

*Loads a file into cache

**Clears the cache

--- --- ---

The plugin works this way :

if you need to load a text, assign it to a variable

Global('text') = File.LoadText("c:\text.txt")

if you need to paste/cut/copy, do like this

File.LoadCache("c:\file.exe")

File.Copy = "c:\directory\"

File.ClearCache

Isn't all this already achievable with the File object? The LoadText expression would be a good addition, however.

Very professional looking. Hope an online plugin comes around sooner rather than later so this sees more development

Someone is developing a comprehensive solution to this in the form of a behavior which should be around soon.

The current save layout to file action in system serializes the layout, as opposed to saving it as ini or text. It'd be very difficult to effectively edit it with notepad (though hardcore gamers could check our source for the correct serialization and reverse engineer it.)

An encryption plugin is necessary for true protection, something like Blowfish.

I'm not sure that'd be antialiased correctly.

Canvas is the best method for now, but a line plugin would be cool especially if it had a 'shoot up/shoot down' action to easily create grappling hooks.
