OOooohh... haha thank you sir!

I'm trying to dip my toes into python and I'm already bumping into problems.

As a simple test I would like to create 100 instances of Sprite with the loop index as it's X value.

for n in range(0, 100, 1):	
	System.Create(Sprite,"top",n,30)
[/code:10j5k26t]
It doesn't create anything. When I run the debugger it even says there's only the one initial instance in existance.

But when I use the loop index for something else, like: ListBox.Add(n) that works fine.

Am I missing something?

To set the colour of a pixel you can use the Canvas objects Draw Point action.

You may be able to get the colour of a pixel by positioning a tiny Canvas object over the pixel at runtime, then pasting the layout into it, and finally using the ImageManipulator to sample the RGB values from it... but that would probably be pretty hacky way to do it and I find the ImageManipulator often doesn't do what I expect it to.

Or, if you are initially setting the pixel colours yourself then you could create a 2D array per colour channel. That way you can always sample RGB values easily.

Hope that made some sense.

Congratulations! I also saw this earlier and was really impressed! I hope it gets the huge success it deserves and that you get very rich

These are awesome! Cool thread.

Heres some more I like...

Enhance!

Yay for math!

Yay for giant waves!

This is looking so awesome Arsonide, I want to play it! Love where you're planning to take the gameplay. I've also been making heavy use of your perlin plugin in my project, its a ton of fun. Thanks a lot for sharing it!

Haha nice!

Castlevania has some retro tracks I like:

Monkey Island has the best soundtrack though in my opinion... doesn't exactly fit the 8-bit style of retro but I don't care

I've never gotten any warnings when downloading but I DO get the following warning every time I run a game created in Construct:

System modification attempt

DeepGuard has noticed that a program is trying to manipulate or terminate another process, which is potentially dangerous.

It's this F-Secure AV & firewall that was provided by my ISP. It's just being paranoid since I haven't seen anyone else mention it on the forums. Thought I'd mention it though cause others out there are probably also getting the same scary warnings when we give them our games.

Is there a way to use Pi in a formula? There doesn't seem to be anything under System/Math and entering wacky python things like math.pi doesn't work either. I'm looking for as precise a value as possible since typing 3.14etc causes misalignments fast.

Thats pretty sweet! Shows promise for cool idea

As reference for the physics of it, I would recommend also finding a copy of an old Amiga/PC game called Fury of the Furries (not that kind of furry). One of the characters in it had a grappling rope thing and I remember it feeling really good in terms of weight and momentum. They also made it so you could wrap your rope around objects as you swang around them. Here's a vid but you should try it sometime for the controls

Congratulations and happy bday!

Thanks for making something so awesome!

Wow this is really beautiful, and I agree that the music is awesome too! Congratulations

I do have one suggestion: Would it be possible to add a brightness/gamma option? I was only able to try it here at work, in a bright office and it was really hard to see the dark levels.
