  • Revision with 8dir and using only the touch object with "Use mouse input" set to yes.

    Still does the job

    Commented Capx

  • Or render a few frames for a sprite animation.

  • Yann had made some example of splitscreen a while ago.

  • The thing that hints that this is a Construct 2 problem, is that every file in the program folder, and only those, were replaced by unreadable files. No other file on the HD was affected.

    Dead/failing sectors on the hardrive could be the cause to files becoming corrupted.

    Also what is the OS on your computer ?

    Nevertheless the fact that it happened on two different PCs is strange. I'd be tempted to think, as you noted, that the files were copied after being corrupted.

    Did you have to restart your computer like shomaster during some file access (in shomaster's case, I'd think the harddrive was being accessed since he tried to edit the textures of a sprite) ?

    I've seen others complaining about corrupted files in the past, but I think it was a bug in a previous version that you've already fixed.

    Indeed. The previous fils corruption were fixed quite a while ago, and I don't think they touched the whole files of the folder anyway, in your case it sounds like a different problem.

    I am keeping all sorts of backups now:)

    That's the spirit <img src="smileys/smiley4.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

    About shomaster's case, the fact that windows itself hanged is quite concerning, but I wouldn't necessary put the blame on C2 for it.

    I don't know if it really makes a difference, but perhaps using the 64bits version of C2 in a 64bits win7 would make for more stability.

    Are your various drivers up to date ? Are you experiencing freezes/need to restart with others programs ? with the windows explorer ?

  • Indeed, moving a layout from a project to another raises a check failure dialog.

    Nevertheless clicking on ignore appeared to still copy the layout and allowing to continue working/saving.

  • Well if you just use the wait action by itself alone, indeed, it does nothing. The tutorial about the wait action mentions it.

    Consider this capx, the sprite becomes effectively visible after the layout has been displayed for 5 seconds.

    The action of the "On start of layout" event has effectively been delayed.

    I'm wondering what exactly you're trying to achieve ?

    Do you want to delay the apparition of a layout between a switch from a layout to another ?

    If that's the case, I'd put the wait action right before the "go to layout" action in the previous layout, not on start of the new one.

  • What is the OS of the laptop, are the graphic card drivers up to date, is openGL supported/up to date ?

    What did change between the moment C2 was working and the moment it started to freeze, what software did you install ?

  • Commented capx.

    This solution proposes to consider the markers as cells of a grid, and navigate the cursor according to the position in the grid.

  • I assume that by "quick-assign" you mean setting the position of the origin by pressing a numeric pad key.

    I tried to do it, the input is simply refused with a window sound playing (I still can click and assign the origin), but C2 does not crash on me in w7 pro 64 bits.

    What is your OS ? Is there any window/message provided on crash ?

    If so, please provide a copy or a screenshot of said message/dialog.

  • Read first: how to report bugs

    Please provide a capx and precise steps to reproduce the bug.

  • How can they compete with other browsers when IE is so...poo?

    IE is shipped within windows, it is the default browser on this OS.

    Using firefox or chrome requires more knowledge and the extra step of installing it, a step that mainstream consumers are not necessarely aware of/willing to take.

    Is IE out-of-date?

    On most points, I guess IE can be considered as under developed/late. But for the reason evoked earlier, It still has some large spread rate.

    Some countries have even based their banking system on IE6 !

    Do you use Firefox or Chrome?

    I have both installed. FF is my main browser though, and the recent version 12 appears to make HTML5 games run far smoother.

    Google was generaly advised so far, but the bugs that have been raising consistantly considering HTML5 gaming and FF catching up on fluidity, requiring less memory etc... will surely change this.

    I don't use IE at all.

  • You could make a second family and test if family1 collides with family2.
