Thank you very much. That's exactly what I needed. It's hard to know where to start on these projects.

I took the example2 and I added a text box and changed it so that the text in the text box becomes the split text and it works great.

I ran into this problem now: if you type "I love watching TV" and hit enter it works, it makes each word a sprite. But then if I type in something different and shorter after it still reads that last sentence, so if I type in "I have" and it enter it will spit out "I" "have" "watching" "TV". I'm studying up on arrays and different stuff in your event sheet i didn't understand so hopefully I figure the answer on my own but I figured I would ask.

Thanks again, really appreciate it.

For my English grammar game (super exciting, I know) I have a text box. I want to type in a sentence, for example "I love fishing" and I want to hit return and turn the individual words in that sentence into sprites.

So, after I hit return I have 3 different sprites, one that says "I", one that says "love", and one that says "fishing". Then you can move them around and rearrange the sentence and whatnot but I know how to do that part. I don't know how to get them from the text box to moveable sprites.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Greg

I understand the theory. Have it measure the degrees, and only trigger if it outside of my desired dead zone.

How would I add the dead zone conditions?

I think I understand what you're saying. I'll give it a shot. Thanks

for x>0,x<100 those are degrees of the circle. (My fault, bad example using 0 and 100 for the values) For example, if the joystick is between 0 degrees and 100 degrees then set action.

Yo people,

I want to increase the dead zone on the gamepad joystick.

I have my joystick set up in degrees of a circle also, not the -100 to 100 values for each axis. I'm using this to get my angles: (angle(0,0,Gamepad.Axis(0,0),Gamepad.Axis(0,1))%360+360)%360

And I get joystick inputs by things like: x>0, x<100 perform action .......etc

As it stands now, the tiniest movement of the joystick registers an input. I want it to only register if the joystick is pressed fully up against the edge, or at least 90% of the way. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks

The %360 + blah blah blah is to turn the value into degrees, 360 degrees.

If you do it with out that it will give you values based on how the axis is laid out in Construct 2, -100 to 100 for both x and y axis.

Nice. Thanks. Yeah the -100 to 100 on the axis confused me. This gives me that angle measurements and that's what I was looking for. Thank you, I'm gonna give it a shot tomorrow. I'll let you know how it turns out

Hello forum people,

First, I would like to thank everyone on these forums. Every time I have asked a question I have gotten an answer and one step closer to finishing my game. So thanks. But I have another...

I want to break the joystick up into 12 equal parts. I did it for 8 equal parts, and that was easy, but when I go to 12 I have a lot of problems. I understand the axes are -100 to 100 but I'm having difficulty with it. I have a wheel menu (kind of like choosing a weapon in gta or red dead redemption) that is 12 equal parts and I want to wheel the joystick around so you can choose each option.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Yo people,

Not sure this is even possible but, I am making a music game. I want to know if it's possible to record and playback some audio.

For example, I am using the gamepad. When you hit the face buttons it plays some notes. I want to hold right trigger and then hit some face buttons to make a tune. I want right trigger to be the record button, so while you're holding it it records your tune. When you let go of it, it plays back your recording on a loop.

Any ideas? Is it even possible? If yes, what could I try? Where would I start?

Thanks everybody. Any info would help

I have made a game in Construct 2, about 60% of it. I don't want to have someone finish it because I won't learn anything and that's no fun. I want to know how it was made so I can make changes to it when it's all done.

I'm looking for someone with experience to consult with. Just an hour or two skype every week or so to answer my questions or write a part that I can't write. It's a music game and it is audio heavy. In fact it is all audio, there's no character movement, no physics, not much of anything, just audio. So advanced audio skills are a plus.

If you are interested please contact me at with some examples of your work and your rates for something like this. Thanks.

Hey rexrainbow,

I'm using the audiohelper plugin. It's fantastic. I have one minor problem though. When I hit the A button it plays a sound, and when you release the button I have it fading out with the audio helper and that works great. But sometimes I need to hit the A button twice or three times in a row quickly. When I do that the audio gets caught up and only plays a very tiny portion of what it should.

Is there a work around for this? Maybe a way to cancel the fade if the same button is pressed again? Any info would help, thanks

Got it. Thanks man
