Well, I'm on my process of experimenting, learning, and discovering construct.. I tried to make my own text blitting usefulk for some games or whatever rpgs etc..

Please suggesst stuff so I could improve it in any way possible especially since I only used commands familiar to me and I know there are tons of other useful commands that I don't know how to use..

Somehow I'm also having issues about the eventing itself. Well, I guess it's a matter of what you got used to. I would also like to see a functional python just for the sake of that type of scripting, you see, even to make a simple matching game, I'd rather script than do it with events(which seems to be easy to do in events) it's because I could handle it more than what construct gives like the event.

Now, if I really like that kind of programming why would I still use construct instead of the python/pygame or whatever language? Simply because Construct has a very good editor and stuff..

It's like using GML to make games in GM that could be done in GM eventing as well. I do't know, it's just like that.

Pretty sweet. I like the ninja concept and throwing daggers.. i'd like to see more skills too.

Wow.. that's really cool.. You know, I learned a lot from your tutorial of platformer.

Maybe next time you could also try something like RTS with all building and stuff and RPG perhaps?

the second stick figure seems to be out of bal;ance

I am trying to make a simulation game and the part of it I'm working on right now is the AI..

So two sprites walk randomly in the map and when by chance, they collide with each other they would pause and interact whatsoever.

The problem I have is that I don't thoroughly understand how objects and event scripting works in Construct.

The two sprite objects are of the same type. I'm having a hard time scripting using events though because I don't know how to manage who is who. For example if i want to edit a private variable of one of the sprites and not the other one. What's the easiest way of doing it.?

What the? Just plainly awesome.. I will try to learn from this and hopefully make something using this engine.. Amazing

Thank you.. I tried the concept and it worked.

No just a timer like countdown, actually, count up timer...

Also, it should be activated and not run in 'Always'

How do you do a basic timer in construct?

How do you make an overhead rain effect like the one in the demo??

Okay, first of all, I'm working on a card game called Tong-its. I created my own way of handling cards and I din't used the default cards plugin for reasons that I'm not exactly sure how it works and I guess it's not fully documented.

Anyway, here's how it goes: the code

<img src="http://img392.imageshack.us/img392/3617/97218200yd9.png">

What it basically does is top deal cards into each player one by one..36 times...to 2 players which means each should get 12 cards and the deck will be left with 16 cards.

the top card in the list(deck) is taken out and put to the player who should receive it

the counting variable in the loop is the one who cycles throught the players where the card should be given..so it's basically a normal dealing of cards- turn by turn.

The problem is that.. I don't know what the problem is..

Because the output is:

When it should look like:

The only hypotheses I got is that the Looping is not exactly working or I have misused it..It seemed to run well for the first time but it somehow fail to include in the loop the nesting if statements..In the debug, the whoseTurn had the final value 36 which is the total number of loops, however, it must have not been so because there is an if that checks the value of whoseTurn..

Pls. take time in solving this, and I tried I really tried, and out of frusttration, i decided to post it here for some help from other users.
