  • Sounds like what you need is something like timedelta for lag.

  • CC's exports are supposed to give a user the option to click a button and it will open the MS page in their browser, but apparently that page has changed.

  • Sol... you missed something.:P

  • Does this mean there is going to be a final 'full' release of CC ?

    Also, there seems to be a significant size difference in 2 of the 3 latest runtimes - a 3rd of the previous size. Just wondering why.

    I doubt it, but this is a biggy.

    So, question is, is it time to put out another release? It has been a

    while.

    As to the file size, the last two had a different installer.

  • Its back, guess there's no escaping it.

  • Try Construct 3

  • Number 2 saving to an ini, or similar.

    Once you save something externally its just about the same as global.

  • One thing I've noticed here is reproducible bugs get fixed quickly.

    Its actually quite interesting really, especially when you consider that it usually takes weeks, or months for most of the big companies to fix things.

    One of the few benefits to a one man development team I suppose.

  • 1. For an object's properties, under the common tab at the top you'll see a checkbox which says "global" this will allow you to access the object more easily in other layouts.

    Ehh thats more of a pain than its worth IMHO. It places that object as it was, in its previous state from the previous layout during runtime.

    One thing to remember, all objects are accessible from any layout. If you need use one of those objects that were added to another layout into your current layout, simply right click, copy, and paste to the layout you need it on.

  • Unfortunately Constructs editor wasn't designed for this kind of grouping. Most users who need that kind of functionality have opted to create their own editors. If you do a search on the forum, you'll probably notice quite a few topics on the matter.

    If none exist I guess building/editing your levels in photoshop is the best/only option.

    Actually its not a very good option if you plan on importing large images into the program. Construct works best with many smaller (optimized IE p^2) images.

    Its not very time effective, unless you use a custom editor, but on the other hand, smaller images used as multiple instances do not add to vram once the initial image is imported.

  • There's also Anim8or, but its very basic, and I believe Povray can be setup to render animations like that.

  • Your welcome. It helps to just think of anything that you make a name for as needing quotes, like "Layout One", image point "point", and then anything that's not a string with single quotes, like global.variable('toggle'), etc.

    However you can get away using some named things without quotes if you name them as numbers IE image point 1, but everything you use letters for must use quote, or double quote.
