I've made simple game prototype: http://tecbug.pl/pub/c2/avoidingballs/

As you can see, rockets are avoiding red balls.

But they always turn right. How can i make them to calculate where to turn to avoid balls faster (depending on ball centre and rocket movement vector)?

I don't kow if it's clear, so there's example:

If rocket moves right (angle 0) and if it collides with ball, construct should check:

if ball.y > rocket.y then rocket rotate right

if ball.y < rocket.y then rocket rotate left

Problem is that rockets have different angles...

There's CAP: http://tecbug.pl/pub/c2/avoidingballs.capx

also, when I actually finish the bulk of my current work, I'm seriously considering trying my hand at an android runtime for c2 as well, if someone hasn't beat me to it.

I'll be your happy tester if you want

(test devices: Samsung Galaxy Tab, HTC Desire and Desire Z)

Man I was fixing up my old pool game for the newer versions and got it all working, then installed CCr1 and the balls starting flying in all directions upon starting the game. I could've saved many hairs from being pulled out if I'd known it was a bug ;p

Same here :/

Fortunately it's solved now.

Great update, thanks.

What happened with physics? Everything now goes crazy when i start level. Any suggestions how to make it work like in previous version? "Use old units" doesn't seem to work.

I thought about that solution. Pity that there's no layer locking action.

Thanks.

I home this para-code explains what I mean:
first("exampletext",5) returns "examp" last("exampletext",3) returns "ext" substring ("exampletext",2,4) returns "ampl"[/code:12wam0yw]

I have 2 layers: Objects and Pause.

While in a game Objects layer is active and Pause layer is inactive. When I pause the game Objects layer is inactive and Pause layer is active (but still both layers are visible).

I have to do this because my game/app is about placing objects on Objects layer (by mouse-clicking) and pause menu is also controlled by mouse. If I don't lock Objects layer when I try to click button in pause menu I'm also placing an object in Objects layer.

Davioware, I hope this makes sense to You
