Hi

you'll find people in these forums are really helpful, but it's easier to help when more detail is provided.

What is it that won't work? describe what you were trying to do and what happened instead.

If possible, post the .cap file for people to try out and modify, you'll find out this is the fastest way to get helpful answers.

cheers!

I just presented Construct to an University crowd at a talk I gave and they went, and I'll use a scientific term here, completely Nutz.

So yeah. Awesome.

Try using subevents to calculate the sum:

+ On collide between Sprite and Sprite

---+ Always

---> Set global 'sum' to 0

---+ For each Sprite (should iterate only over picked sprites - the two colliding ones)

---+ Add Sprite('momentum') to global 'sum'

---+ Always

---> Create object, set momentum to global('sum')

:O I never thought of using SOL this way! hmmmm

sweetness

sounds like a trial version.

Which is something I was waiting for. Woot!

Array with tick counts is what everybody seems to use in rhythm games.

I could never think of anything more comfortable than that.

PNG-8 uses color palettes but Construct uses PNG-32 (RGBA).

Palette operations are really really legacy operations.

I wrote a color remap shader that remaps intensities on a grayscale sprite to a 3-color ramp, but never uploaded it. I couldn't figure out how to let people choose the number of colors in the ramp so I had a 3 color and a 5 color version.

But that doesn't sound like it would do what you want

I just mean C++ is limiting in some regards.

O_o

say what?

Why would anyone want a loading screen that doesn't load anything?

Don't. Just don't.

congrats, this gets asked a lot!

Ribbon: go for it. Soon MS will also stop supporting XP, as Vista becomes legacy and XP becomes... really old.

Quicklaunch vs new taskbar: Installers cannot pin stuff for you, only the user can. No clutter yay!

Also I became so used to all the UI perks (hovering to preview stuff like progress bars, putting windows side to side, etc) that I unconciously do it in my Vista box. And then I remember that Vista sucks.

I'd like to point out the awesomeness.

That'll be all.
