OK I know I can use tween to slide in and out layers but I want when i enable a layer for the menus to pop up like from the middle of the screen and animate.

Just can't figure out scaling with tween since I have multiple objects attached to the pop up menu.

Also, as another question, how can I add hint buttons at each level? Thanks.

Can you explain a bit more on what you want the hint button to do? And how is your level setup?

Congrats on your launch. BTW where did you make the graphics?

I have searched the forum and only seen few related posts but without a precise answer. I am trying to implement the Google Play leaderboard but just need to know which blocks goes where as I have seen many that looks confusing. For instance

1)

+ Is loaded

+ On loaded

Do we need both or just one?

2) Do I just do this on start of layout

+ google sign in

or I need to add something else?

3) On leaderboard button click

+ Is sign in

++ submit score

++ show leaderboard

I just need some guide on steps using the blocks correctly and efficiently.

Thanks

OK the game sound nearly took my ears off without warning. Now I am in recovery mode.

Are you using PHP and AJAX to send the request? Whatever you echo out should get sent back to C3 so you can tell if the results were "Sorry..." or "Your account..."

If I may ask, how do I ensure no one is able to inject scores to the board using the full address?

Thanks for the reply. I just figured it out using AJAX.LastData then I am now able to compare the strings.

Hi I am currently setting up my SQL for my leaderboard. I have been able to configure setup mysql to check for existing record when a new user tries to create a new username.

Manually testing it, I am able to create a new user and also when I try to create another user with same name, it echos the message as expected on the browser.

The challenge I have now is with Construct 3, I am able to create a new user but when I try to create same user, on SQL side nothing changes but on Construct 3 side, it still thinks it went OK.

How can I get Construct 3 to get the echo message from mysql so it knows there was an error?

if (mysqli_num_rows($res_u) > 0) { $name_error = "Sorry... username already taken"; echo 'Sorry... username already taken'; }else{ $sql = "INSERT INTO $db_name.$db_table (name, score) VALUES ('$name','$score')"; $results = mysqli_query($con, $sql); echo 'Your account has been created!'; }

I have decided to do my own leaderboard using SQL and so far it works fine for me with a few exceptions which I am now working my way through to fixing them. That includes:

- Checking and ensuring no duplicate players names

- Lock down hackers from been able to inject data into the database (sql injection) hence avoiding scores been altered. TBH it will be foolish for a hacker to spend his time doing that on a leaderboard. Only reason why I would want to fix this is to avoid a virus spamming my database

- Display a dialog for player to enter name if he wants score to be submitted if first time but subsequent time only high score should be saved straight without any prompt since player already registered

- Add a column to insert random images per players. This eliminates forcing players to register

- Ability to display players current rank if outside the top 10 or 20 etc

Hi, anyone able to provide me with link on how to setup Google Play leaderboard on C3 step by step. Thanks
