  • You should probably update directx9, and your camera drivers, before you start handing out "crazy".... we're all full up.

  • Your welcome.

    Also added a new version that does the placement properly, and added an offset for a wavy kind of effect.

  • As I recall you didn't do anything that called for your ban, but you asked to be banned, and they responded in kind.

    If you wish to be a part of the community, then fine, obviously a ban wont keep you away, but please try to keep the hissyfits to a minimum, they really don't accomplish anything.

  • [quote:26njzfjd]I'm going to have to replace the Perlin Noise plugin by Arsonide because it causes this "Not Responding" state when generating the noise.

    Perlin shouldn't slow down anything, it's just data.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Yeah, the more the merrier. I do worry about using the Game Jolt plug, seems the site is loosing interest to every one but the dev's, and bots.

  • Worked out pretty good.

    Also you can add images to the ends of the trail for stuff like a bow or frills on the end.

    The u, and v is a bit off, but my understanding of it is somewhat limited.

  • Sprite ribbon might work pretty good here.

    Ill try to make an example.

  • A function would make it fairly simple, and you can add parameters to reuse loops.

    Honestly though it depends on what your doing. Like if this is a process you will be doing throughout the game, or if it's just a bunch of data you can crunch at one time.

  • Sorry it appears my understanding of overlapping at offset was wrong.

    As it is now overlapping at offset only checks for a single point, not all points between.....

    Here is an cap using dummies instead.

    Should be fairly straight forward, cept angle(x1,y1,x2,y2), which gives you the angle.

  • If there's only one instance of that platform, and only one instance of your particles, then you could just compare the x of the platform. Like platform x is less than n amount.

    Why doesn't construct have proper bone animation support anyway?

    I'd say probably cause no two bone editors are the same.

    That, with the fact that Construct wasn't meant to be full blown 3d, and creating a 3d bone editor is way beyond that.

    ...... doesn't mean there will never be one tho...

  • I had this idea the other day wile searching the forum, and thinking to myself, I should really write this stuff down.

    [quote:1bf2zrlv]CodeStruct acts like a utility that gives users access to snippets of code that can be used in the game editor Construct.

    Registered Game Jolt players can add code to increase their score, and add to the available data.

    To use, run the program, and mouse wheel up, or down to view the snippets. Hovering over a line of code will give a description of what the code is for, and bring the copy icon into view. You can then click the icon to copy the snippet to the clipboard.

    To submit code simply log in, and enter the appropriate info into the edit boxes.

    Each time you submit code your score will increase.

    Please be sure your submission is not a duplication, is relevant to Construct, and well defined.

    Note:

    This uses the Game Jolt Achievements plug, and while you don't have to register to use it, you will need an internet connection to read the snippets.
