  • Change to a "text" vs a "number" and try the floor(int(textinput.text), it seems to work the smoothest.

  • Try Construct 3

  • If your end format is in a whole number:

    5645645.11

    "$"&RegexReplace(str(floor(Your_Number)), "(\d)(?=(\d{3})+$)", "g", "$&,")

    $5,645,645

    Pretty easy.

    If your end number needs cents:

    5645645.11

    Search the forums, I'm sure there's a way but I've never figured it out.

    $5,645,645.11

    No clue.

    If someone ever figures this out, a tutorial would be awesome.

  • If your animation is all correct, you might see if it's continually calling the animation when the button is pressed.

    (ie, a trigger once might be all you need.)

  • Menu, view, addon manager?...just trying to be helpful. Hopefully someone that has done this before will check-in soon. Also, you might try the unofficial discord, usually a few online.

  • Never purchased a template, so don't know too much. Template suggests it's a *.capx file? Can you just open it as a project? (maybe post a snip or 2, so we can see?)

  • Try pick all, if that doesn't work we'll need code.

  • Have you tried drag/drop the file into a layout?

  • The only way I would know to do what your asking is by using regular expressions.

    regexr.com

    That site allows you to see how the expressions work in realtime, which is nice for newbs like myself.

    Then

    for loop,

    action, RegexMatchAt(TextInput.Text,"\S+","g",loopindex)

    that would fill your array if there are space (you may want that differently, \S+ is just a not space parse.),

    then you could do a regexreplace for getting it into the math.pow format.

    I was curious why the .pow format? Set text to str((2^2)+(2^2)) displays 8.

  • Tilemap size = 100x100

    Variable1 = 1

    My question: is the variable tied only to the tilemap or is it tied to each frame?

    (Been messing with a loop for hours and coming to the conclusion it's only tied to the map itself.)

    As an example, I can get the frame by using touch.

    However setting them all automatically at the beginning of a layout doesn't work.

  • Diego is spot on, you could pop the array front (delete 1st, then display second, etc.)

    A couple other options:

    1. Destroy the first one when creating the new.

    2. Opacity lowered for old (or both).

    That's the nice part of programming, whatever you want is perfect.

    Just adding, recall the old super mario brothers. It spawned messages at point x,y then move up all the old with a fade. Was kinda neat.

  • 113000 out of 114600 and the random works in under 1 second still. Just an fyi (computers are really amazing).

  • When it fails, open the developer tools, is it tossing an error?
