  • Just tested it on my wampserver with the new runtime.js, works fine now!

    thanks,

  • I'm not at a computer that has construct on it at the moment, but maybe you could do something like this:

    If you are using some kind of movement behavior set custom control to YES,

    In event sheet:

    If keyW is down and keyA is up and keyS is up and keyD is up -> then simulate key_up

    If keyS is down and keyW is up and keyA is up and keyD is up -> then simulate key_down

    If keyA is down and keyW is up and keyS is up and keyD is up -> then simulate key_left

    If keyD is down and keyW is up and keyS is up and keyA is up -> then simulate key_right

  • Given that images have origin points, collision shapes, and various sizes, I'd say it's probably much safer to just Edit Animation, and replace the pictures manually, much as a hassle that might be. Even if you have many instances of the sprite already on the layout, you only need to replace the image from the 'edit Animation' editor a single time.

  • I've written a project which uses sound effects, they are stored in the program as AAC and OGG. The sound files work in Chrome and Firefox, but fail to play when accessing my game from Safari on my iPad running iOS 5.1.

    This plays from my ipad, so i'm assuming it is using AAC, as AAC is supported by Safari.

    How come the audio plugin doesn't work? Actually the first time I tried it, it played some of the sound files, though it never played the music. After that, it never played the audio files again.

    I read on a previous post that mentioned you might have to first preload the sound file, and then use the play sound call, is that true?

    Many posts mention using Appmobi to export the app. Does this mean that it produces an iOS application, or is it still accessible from iOS built in web browser Safari? I'm concerned because I need my construct 2 project to remain on a server because it makes use of the Ajax plugin.

  • That fixed it! Weird, I really thought I had the latest version. :)

    Thanks~~

  • I know this post is rather old, but I just wanted to point out that I have the same problem. Sound works flawlessly in Firefox, but inexplicably stutters in Chrome (which is pretty annoying, since graphically it's the exact opposite, where Chrome has a much better FPS than Firefox). I'm also on a Windows XP SP3 32-bit machine. At any rate, it's good to know that it's not a problem with my project but has something to do with Chrome.

  • Awesome, thanks a bunch. I look forward to it to the next update.

    Just wanted to express my appreciation for this plugin again.

    I noticed something strange going on with the example though. It brings up this screen on firefox and/or chrome. I've got the most up-to-date versions of rex_text/rex_function/rex_timeline.

    Screen:

    <img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12667027/Construct%202/rex%20textplugin/blank.png" border="0">

    I created a really simple project to see if I could duplicate the problem. Could this be because I'm still using the r80.2 release?

    Here is the sample capx:

    capx

    The code only has one line in it:

    <img src="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/12667027/Construct%202/rex%20textplugin/code%20snippet.png" border="0">

    If I comment this out, the project previews normally.

    Any idea what's going on?

  • Addendum: Just want to mention that rexrainbow wrote out a quick text plugin that doesn't seem to suffer from this problem when using unicode characters like chinese, although it still happens with regular characters as mentioned above. Not sure if this would aid with debugging the problem.

    I don't know how quite to explain this, but the arrow keys work really inconsistently when navigating the event sheet. This seems to be a newly introduced bug, since I never noticed this before. Just load up a relatively complex event sheet and you'll see what I mean. Many times the up/down arrows won't work, instead I'll have to press left, and other weird things happen. I'm sorry I can't provide more details,

    Steps:

    Open sample capx

    Click on the subevent so that the entire subevent is highlighted, press the up arrow, and nothing happens. Now press up and left several times in random combination and it sort of works.

    Sample capx:

    Navigation Error Capx

    Others:

    Pressing B adds a blank subevent which is great, but unfortunately, hitting enter on the blank subevent won't bring up the event editor, so I can't add anything to it without clicking on it with a mouse.

    I'm not positive, but I believe this problem to be recent.

    P.S. Thanks for making it so that the highlight event returns after adding an event/action via the keyboard, little things like this are great for people who've suffered from RSI injuries in the past.
