    The relative positions for the joints is relative as if the object was unrotated. so if the object's angle was 90 degrees a relative offset of rect(10, 0) would be (sprite.x, sprite.y+90). But also keep in mind as the sprite rotates the point will adjust. I wonder if I should make the offset relative to the sprite's current angle. It might be a bit more intuitive.

    If you mean the android game I agree with Kyatic that you could get the look with q3d. The issue is the 3d physics would have to be done manually since there isn't a plugin for 3d physics yet.

  • 1. Use the "snapshot canvas" action

    2 under a "On canvas snapshot" condition use:

    3 sprite->"load image from url" action with the CanvasSnapshot expression.

  • [quote:10f9gv3j]Why we can't locally load files in Preview Mode in Node-Webkit ??

    We can though. In node-webkit preview if you use "document.xml" as the file it will look here:

    "http://localhost:50000/document.xml"

    If you want to get the file from the same folder as the capx you need to type it in explicitly:

    "C:\Users\rojo\Documents\c2projects\document.xml"

    And to make it work in preview or in export you could use a global like this:

    global text AppPath = "C:\Users\rojo\Documents\c2projects\"

    Start of layout

    System: [NEGATE] is in preview

    --- set AppPath to NodeWebkit.AppFolder

    And then request any files with:

    AppPath & "document.xml"

  • Thanks. That capx mesmerizes me too, since I don't understand all of the equations I used in it. I'd have look up the reference again . Basically it counts how many times a line starting from the point toward the right cross an edge of the polygon. If it's an odd number of times, it's inside, otherwise it's not.

  • Update #7

    +Added segment shape

    note: no segment/segment collisions possible. This is a limitation of Chipmunk 6.1.1

    note2: "segment shape radius" can be positive or negative. If it's positive rounded endcaps are added to either side. If it's negative the endcaps do not extend pass the width of the object.

    +Added segment shape radius property.

    +Added more expressions:

    segmentRadius, area,

    comx, comy (center of mass)

    +Added descriptions for all the ACEs and change the names of the query conditions to make more sense.

    +Bugfixes for:

    • polor vectors were treating angles like radians. They needed to be converted in the behavior.

      Prominent

    negative or zero sized objects

    a few things with changing the mass and making immovable.

    some other things I forgot to write down.

    -cheers everyone

    There's an example of finding if an object is inside a polygon here:

    Events 7-9 are the relevant ones to pick the inside objects.

    Mobile devices are not a goal, but there's no reason why it shouldn't work there. My target is first getting all the features working well first with a good design for the events. If i encounter any major problems I'll try to adress them as they come up, and every export platform should benefit from it.

    [quote:3dpc5daj]edit2: been trying to use it, but adding forces to objects seems to mess things up. their points seem to become displaced and move all over inaccurate from the object.. weird... :\

    Can you provide a capx that does this, I can't reproduce it. It's working here for me.

  • The tilemap object is causing this. It only draws what is onscreen and as I recall the paster objects don't change where the screen is at for the pasting.

    I wonder if scrolling to player2, pasting, and then scrolling back to player1 would work as a solution.

  • Prominent

    For the line collision type I'm thinking I'll have the start of the line will be the left-center of the object and the end will be the right-center. That will also take care of the visualization since Behaviors can't draw anything.

    It should be just as possible as using box2d. That being said I don't know how this compares to box2d in performance on mobile devices.
