  • In your tutorial you have the AJAX event as:

    AJAX -> on "" completed... action = txtReturnData -> set text to AJAX.LastData

    But in your capx file it shows instead:

    AJAX -> On AJAX.LastData completed...action = txtReturnData -> set text to AJAX.LastData

    Thanks for finding that. I've updated the zip file.

    It works either way - at least that's what I found. I'm sure the final version of Construct 2 will have some kind of update or official docs on the stuff we're all using.

    For now, use the "" version.

  • Hey this is cool!

    I wanna try this out.

    Thanks for sharing.

  • Thanks for the kind comments everyone.

    I've updated the tutorial as per Ashley's suggestion (it was very handy). I also updated the .zip download.

  • Ghengis, I don't have time to read the tutorial fully but at a quick glance it looks superb, good job!

    Just so you know, you can split it onto multiple pages with:

    ==========

    It's quite a long page so might be a good idea!

    Thanks for the tip.

    I didn't know I could split up the pages. When I was writing it, I did notice an unusual amount of scrolling on my part. I'll split it up. Things will be neater and it will load faster too.

    *updated didn't to did

  • Top score is $68,200.

    Such a loyal soul ;)

    Thanks for the comments everyone. I posted an AJAX tutorial so I can remember how I did it. It's basic with lots of screen captures.

  • I added a tutorial with lots of screen captures and notations. I hope it helps someone. http://www.scirra.com/tutorials/61/how-to-a-simple-ajax-example-with-construct-2

  • lol...yeah, the hard button doesn't work. I will speed it up.

    As well, the roll movement is a bit wonky. I can't wait to see how Construct 2 will handle physics.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • Ghengis I love your game "CASH ROLL". <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> What a fun, and addictive game. Did you make all the game art yourself? I'm looking forward to your AJAX tutorial Iv been working on a database, and some php scripts for a social game like FarmVille, and I would really like to use Construct 2 to build it.

    Yes, I use to be a an illustrator before I got into programming.

    The next step would be to create a login, member/avatar set up that will post to a leaderboard with achievements, points etc.

    I'll write up the tutorial on the basics of the AJAX object. Then build on that.

    Construct 2 is just an amazing piece of work by Scirra. It is very powerful. I'm so glad I found it.

  • I have the basics for the AJAX object working on my test game. It will post and show a score in a simple listing. I'll write a quick tutorial for everyone so I can remember how I did it too.

    Sample test game with AJAX object posting to database.

  • Thanks Kyatric, not sure why it would do that but I'll look into it. The event should only get called each time the post score button is clicked. At any rate, it looks like the score got submitted once only.

    A bunch of other things I want to improve upon but C2 has met my expectations so far.

  • Since picking up Construct 2 about a week ago it's been a really great learning experience. I am completely impressed by this program and look forward to the final release.

    Here's what I've made with it so far.

    <img src="http://www.jtadeo.com/scirra/cashroll/cashrollscreencapture.png" border="0">

    It's isn't optimized but my goal was to try my hand with Construct 2.

  • Can you show me step by step? That will be a great appreciation.

    I've been working on my game the past couple of days since picking up Construct 2 and it uses the AJAX object. When it's done, I'll submit a tutorial on how I did it.

    There may already be a tutorial in the works as I understand someone was working on one. Either way, I'm a couple of days away from getting my test game out and you can see it working I hope.
