Platforms now work flawlessly. Though i'm curious as to how it will work on other people's computer.

you may check "fixed framerate" and try different numbers here. It's good practice.

hmmm this is probably the culprit

if packetExtents[1] is not None:[/code:2zy9ahg1]
Now, if packetExtents is empty, that probably means my tablet is not supported or something like that.

dunno. I don't really know python nor Wintab. I just got excited about having support for my tablet

I was reading this

http://www.scirra.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=5641&start=0

And did some testing and wound up with a fully fledged scanline effect.

Woops.

EDIT:

Parameters:

number of shown scanlines

width of scanlines (as coverage %)

intensity of the effect (0% intensity is invisible, 100% means black lines)

There's no offset control because I didn't feel it would be useful.

Coordinates in the runtime go from 0 to 1, from top to bottom and from left to right of the screen.

In the Editor, though, this is from the edge of the EDITING WINDOW, not the layout, so effects get different coordinates.

That said, you are testing for an int result of a modulus

so if you were thinking integer pixels

vpos=0 -> vpos%2 = 0, darken
vpos=1 -> vpos%2 = 1, ignore
vpos=2 -> vpos%2 = 0, darken
vpos=3 -> vpos%2 = 0, ignore[/code:1wmitvxv]

but the shader is fractional
[code:1wmitvxv]
vpos=0 -> vpos%2 = 0, darken
vpos=0.3 -> vpos%2 = 0.3, ignore
vpos=0.7-> vpos%2 = 0.7, ignore
vpos=1 -> vpos%2 = 1, ignore
vpos=1.2 -> vpos%2 = 1.2, ignore
vpos=1.7 -> vpos%2 = 1.7, ignore
vpos=2 -> vpos%2 = 0, darken[/code:1wmitvxv]

As you can see, depending on the size in pixels the effect will look very different.

I recommend the following test instead
[code:1wmitvxv]if(vpos%2 > 1)[/code:1wmitvxv]
ALL THAT SAID.... yeah, the diagonal line shouldn't be there at all, and the scanlining should be regular, so yeah it looks like a bug in effect coordinates.....

MORE TESTING REVEALS that this effect only happens when there's more scanlines than physically possible (half the vertical resolution). Why? no idea, but while testing, I ended up writing a full scanlines shader, so here it is.

you may change number of shown scanlines, scanline width and intensity of the effect. No offset, because I didn't feel like it.

This is probably a job for The Pythons

I never got my reply

this is probably down to what Vrav mentioned earlier about hard-coding it for 1024 pressure levels (I think my tablet is 512).

this sounds very plausible, as python didn't complain about any missing files or definitions

Awesome, this will be really useful somehow, I'm sure >_<

At least, this is very used with networking so yeah. Put it in the finished addons page!

The problem is that RTS movement behavior does not have collision checking, so the enemies' sprites overlap each other, as well as the player

You should check the "Solid" attribute on both player and enemy sprites.

In pixel art isometric though, instead of 0.53125, you would probably just use 0.5

in TRUE isometric images you would use 1, as isometric means all axis are equal, there's no "squashing" on any of them. Then again, most "isometric" art is not really isometric, as it does look a bit weird.

In my system I allow an angle, so this factor starts at 1 but it will be set to the cosine of a view angle (press Q and W), and objects get repositioned accordingly (so at 90? it's ISO, at 60? its 0.5). It seems to go weird below 45, but that probably depends on the source art.

Speaking of which, Deadeye, our stickmen shall do battle XD

wooo Construct going ISO!

can I participate if I'm not in neither USA or Canada? or the UK? or Europe?

What if I'm not on the map?

O_O

Or have a second sprite and turn one off and the other on?

that wouldn't load from the file
