There's nothing wrong with starting with the free version. If you like it (and you probably will), then you can support Scirra by buying a license.

You have a number of 'fullscreen in browser' options to choose from. I personally prefer 'letterbox scale' but it's up to you.

Just make sure you mention me with sqiddster so I don't forget... it's hard to keep track of these threads.

I really can't tell if it's just a side effect of the fullscreen scaling (you will get some level of artifacts no matter what), or something more. Mainly because the youtube compression sort of makes it all look the same. Any way you could give us your capx or a simplified version?

Whiteclaws, of course you can use those! Why wouldn't you be able to?

Hello everyone, I prevent a perplexing problem.

Let's say I have two click-and drag nodes, with a bar that always extends between them. A simple matter to program.

<img src="http://i.imgur.com/cg0Pv.png" border="0" />

The nodes can be dragged around the layout at will and the bar will always extend between them (simple programming).

Now, in the context of this arrangement, there will be some walls/obstacles in the layout.

How can I program the arrangement so that the user can never position the system so that any object (nodes or bar) intersects any wall?

Here's a capx of the example. It's pretty simple as I haven't implemented any sort of collision prevention.

So, what do you think I should do? I thought of using physics, but that brings problems with clicking and dragging...

Thanks!

Ashley I'll let you know if it ever happens without the PC going to sleep.

Ashley, unfortunately I can report it has happened again in r112. I left C2 running while the computer slept and now it refuses to close, either by clicking the red X or right-clicking C2 in the taskbar and clicking 'close'.
If I go to the task manager and click 'end task' , I get the 'Construct 2 has stopped working' message, and if I close this, everything exits.

Your game is great, by the way.

You mean a strobe? You could use the Flash behavior.
