Hello everyone!

A few weeks ago I was given an English assignment where we had to use many technologies to form a presentation covering all the literature we had read throughout the year.

So, I decided this would be a perfect opportunity to use C2 for a use totally against its intended purpose... and it turns out C2 is pretty decent for making nice looking presentations!

Take a look at the capx here. (Sorry, uncommented.)

Use the left mouse button to progress through the presentation. 'F' to call fullscreen.

Hello everyone...

I have a bit on a project where I spawn objects to a certain formula. The problem is, this means I end up with a few redundant 'piles', if you will, of these objects. I don't know how many piles there are, or how many objects there are in each pile but it is important that I reduce each pile to one object.

How can I reduce each pile to one object?

If I am not being specific enough, I will be happy to draw an image, but I think you get the picture.

I'm sure it will gradually get better until it approaches native power.

Sure, but that will increase your download size! Plus your explosion will be exactly the same each time.

There are a few ways to do that...

You can use physics...

You can use custom movement and play with the vectors. Simulate gravity and apply a random X and Y vector on creation.

Hope that makes sense to you!

I was expecting better results because Blackberry really seems to be pushing HTML5... Glad to see we can get them.

There's no easy way to do this with C2. What you should probably do is cut it up in photoshop, then save each image as a frame in an explosion animation at speed zero.

Could you use the abs() function on the divisor?

Not sure what you mean, no idea what an ego-shooter is!

Some sort of example image or something would be nice.

You want to post on someone's wall every X seconds? That's probably a bad idea...

Could you just set X and Y limits?

E.g. if object.X > amount, object.X = amount.
