Im looking to generate maps and rooms. Anyone have any examples or example caps to test it out and see if i can use or suggestions on where to look for guides or examples.

Im working on a game where the game content is mostly randomly generated such as enemies and maps. I want to learn how to make it semi intelligent to do it with some logic. Any suggestions would help. thanks

You could write a plugin im sure.. At start of layout do the required for steam. But yeah that would require a little work but no you could get it to work. Many indies can see success without the need of steam. Steam is nice and all but you could do good with out it.

On a side note offtopic and kinda on topic.. ModDB is releasing a new digital distribution service that is coming out in april. Maybe you could see if there is any success there with your title as well under the idea of self publishing.

You can sell a game in construct, just you need to put forth your own work towards it. And some options may not be available off the bat but you could possibly get something out there from other indie sources and review sites like

http://jayisgames.com/

http://www.tigsource.com

that can get you out there and you could self publish also. These are just some options if you look into it you could find a lot of ways to self publish and make a living.

I just really need to learn the basics of the networking for python + construct. I dont know python but im sure its not hard to learn. Once i learn the basics on combining Construct and Python networking im sure i would become work aholic to get something going. Kinda game i would work on long term would be a simple lobby system. And then user created servers for a top down kinda deathmatch/shooter game.

Well if you didnt want to hand over all rights there are companies that could publish it for you? I mean im sure you have thought of this since you are wanting to get rid of the game it self.

But if you were looking for company might be wanting to publish games you could look at http://meridian4.com/. and look at corporate and you might find some information on what they might do to help you out and what not, they were something i was thinking about working with on a construct project. Real case is that they dont want source but to publish game so you just make an installer or what not that includes all that construct needs to run and there you go so they wont care about source.

Im more or less wondering how to develop this.. Like will you release source or make a tutorial on how adding networking can be done? Ive got a game in development and have been looking into this networking for a while.

It did not work to well on my linux a while back.. It sometimes crash and sometimes flaky.. but im sure you could get it to work with tweaking?

Wow this is a awesome project.. Love the feel to it.

Open up construct and if i remember correctly there is a template that has AI turrets.. that should provide basic enemy fire..

I was programming a 3d rts engine with a friend. We had a client server system and packets were simple. We used raknet which is really simple to set up ill see if i could get a plugin working? Im not that good at networking in mass numbers. Im sure i could make a co-op like plugin but anything for mmos would be beyond me.

wow, looks really good but sadly it does not work for me.. downloaded the new version of plugin and then i download that and run it. Crashes.. the past tutorials work really good. Just this one crashes and when i look at event sheet Construct crashes?

Those are 2 ive been messing with. I got the mp3 to work with directsound.. but that is not really supported anymore.

Anyone else have problems with this? Im using the new Construct and im trying to add sound to the game. I relize that the sound resources are messed up so i tried to use Xaudio 2 From File and that still fails..

Ive tried .wav format and .mp3.. and all i get is a RTE as soon as i start layout with music. Any suggestions please.
