it looks better if you add:

start of layout: set sprite5.angle towards (sprite.x, sprite.y)

set display angle to sprite5.angle

that way it doesn't rotate really fast at the beginning

fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'atlstr.h': No such file or directory

it still needs ATL

oops... i forgot to do that... my bad. hopefully that will fix it

windows.h isn't included with VC8 express. Win32 also needs ATL

I'm pretty sure when it checks for collisions Construct doesn't look at where the layers are scrolled to, only the x and y coordinates of the objects.

The SDK isn't working for me and I read in an earlier thread that ATL and MFC aren't included in the express versions. Is it possible to download them seperately?

Have a good time in Vegas... oh wait, you're not going to Vegas...

I just started using Construct a few months ago and was impressed by its general usability, the speed of new releases, and by how active the forums are. I have never used MMF2, but I have tried gamemaker and Construct is a LOT better. I kind of agree with the suggestion not to start a big project. I would suggest to make small programs that test different features you want in your program. If you can produce all features individually, then try implementing them in a larger program. Over all, I would say to try it out and if you find a bug, report it. Then wait for Ashley to work his magic and continue.

I almost finished the System Actions page, but I don't know what the 'Set Zoom Offset' does or what the 'Flags' parameter of the 'Play sound' action is for. Could someone either tell me or go and fix it? thnx

P.S.: The documentation project needs all the help it can get, so go on the wiki and contribute http://69.24.73.172/scirra/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page
