Actually, I've had this problem since forever, too. This is the sole reason Blight does not support other resolutions. I can't guarantee it will be playable at lower resolutions--foreground items move in the way, etc.

Hand drawn C-7?!

Haha yeah. I'm not really good at 3D.

What's going to be going in at top HUD box? Looking good.

Here's a full-resolution shot of the title screen (the end of that intro cutscene)

Jayjay I saw a few other shots of your game in your thread, and it looks neat! I'm not as big a fan of that particular one, but still neat looking!

Awesome, thank you all very much!

Here's a barebones .cap to show the issue.

That global variable 'floating' isn't related to the length. That is only used to determine if the player should get hurt or not (the player has a shield below them at times). I don't use that variable in determining laser length. It can be ignored for the purposes of this. Even with private variables, I'm not sure how I'd achieve it, but I suppose I can try a few things more later on tonight.

So I made a simple constant-stream laser turret that shoots vertically. I used the instant-hit laser tutorial to set it up. My goal is to have more than one turret and each laser-length will be set independently. What I have working: two lasers on-screen (or more) with independent lasers and independent ending markers for calculating the length. They're the white dots floating in the air above each laser (tough to see). I want the player to 'break' the beam and shorten it. Simple enough, but assigning to multiple lasers independently alludes me completely.

What currently happens: If the player enters the beam on the left, both lasers lengths are shortened. If the player enters the beam on the right, nothing happens.

What I want: Each laser should be adjusted independently. I haven't a clue how to achieve that.

A shot for reference:

My current events:

vert: the turret thing

redbullet: bullet behavior object, instant-hit, invisible

rayend: set to last point of bullet, for judging distance

laser: duh

Sprite: player character

Any help is appreciated!

Cool! Congrats on the release, I'll gladly chip in a dollar a little later this week.

I ran into this issue when previewing it on another computer... That particular keyboard didn't allow for thos key combinations. It basically has to do with the wiring of the keyboard, so try some other combos to see what works best.

It's built just like a level. Ie, mouse-drawn 2D art, animations, and muliti-layer parallax scrolling. Thanks!

Hey, everyone.

Kastas, a user on here, just released an iPhone/iPad game using some of my music. Check it out! It's pretty neat! Admittedly, it isn't made with Construct, but still neat nonetheless!
