  • OID is object id, a specific number given to each different type of object.

    In this case its the object cover.

    So basically is saying if object cover's opacity is equal to 10, and if the number of the objects called cover placed into the selected objects list is 2... do stuff.

    Not to be confused with UID, a specific value assigned to each individual instance of an object.

  • Might check out Arsonides plug Grid tree.

  • Thanks Jayjay I'll give it a go.

    Although Construct tries its best to convert between numbers and text, you are free to explicitly convert to text with the expression 'str':

    AppPath & str(random(10) + 1) & ".png"

    This should work without exception.

    Ampersand concatenates to string, so it should automatically be converted.

    I've seen others use the plus sign, and it worked, but I can't think of a situation where that method would be better.

  • Random(10) +1 unless you have a 0.png

    Like shinkan said

  • I think _________ is a pretty cool guy. eh spams and doesnt afraid of anything

  • Its not that bad really. I have my z heights via a height map, all I need are some expressions to move that around a bit. All I found so far is stuff about using matrices... not that easy to plug into Construct.

  • Nothing that extravagant, no 3d collisions, or z height changing for characters, just a simple iso type view for terrain, or buildings.

  • Can somebody give me a few references on how to apply a side view or pitch/yaw to a regular sprite distortmap?

    Im aiming for some type of perspective view that can be rotated.

  • Try Construct 3

  • Each plug you add gets in there as well, take a look at the plugs folder, some of those are pretty big.

  • partialy. go into your profile Tom and keep hitting F5.
