I found this site with a pretty good explanation on how to do it:

http://www.bytearray.org/?p=91

Here's my attempt at it:

My implementation isn't complete since it only accepts exact mouse gestures. Ideally a gesture should be detected if it's close enough.

No need to calculate the angle. Just give the bullets the physics behavior and the kickback from the bullets hitting the player will be handled automatically.

Here's an example of what I'm suggesting:

I unchecked enable scripting and it worked.

Put the object to be created in quotes:
System.Create("Sprite","top",n,30)[/code:3ml3sjfg]

Python has an exec statement that does that:
exec System.AppPath + r'scripts\gameplay\wakawakawaka.py'[/code:2w8c0vef]

Here's my attempt at creating this:

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5426011/examples3/water2.cap made in 0.99.96

It works well visually but requires a pretty much static environment. AKA it doesn't allow you to drain a body of water but it fills it nicely.

Focus can be returned to the layout with the winapi through some python. All you need is to add the Window object to your cap and use this python script:
from ctypes import * windll.user32.SetFocus(Window.AppWindow)[/code:2hmaemm3]

Here is a cap with some additional ways to make a circle with the canvas object:

1. Filled circle.

2. Polyline circle. (the trig way)

3. Graph of a circle.

It might just be an issue of a missing backslash when typing the path.

Say you type the directory path as "C:\mypath".

Then you try to play a file:
path & "music1.mp3"[/code:oq8iyssp] The result will be a wrong path "C:\mypathmusic1.mp3" so no sound will play. Just be sure to include a trailing backslash to the path and it should work.

What doesn't work about it? Whenever you use the name of a imagepoint in events are you putting it in quotes?

[quote:2fkul0qb]hey, doesn't gettoken works with private variables?
like

left(Gettoken(SpriteFont.Value('sdfsdf'),2,"."),1)

??

If 'sdfsdf' is a string then it should work. But if it's a number then it needs to be converted into a string with the str() function.

left(Gettoken(str(SpriteFont.Value('sdfsdf')),2,"."),1)
