In the manual under the Clear Background option it says that if you set Construct 2 to skip both background redraws any areas of the screen that are not covered by objects will be glitchy or full of garbage pixel data.

I know that this is a strange request but I would like to see an example of this in action as I cannot produce this effect.

Thank you for any help.

When the need arises to enter the name of an animation, or similar piece of information, into an event sheet the very helpful auto complete box pops up and shows the available options. This is great but for some reason it does not seem to work when I want to choose image points in the same way.

Please could this minor issue be updated (unless it is intended to be this way and I am missing something) as it would make for a more consistent work flow.

Thank you for reading.

Thank you. I had completely missed the Water Background effect. Works perfectly!

Hello, I am trying to create a water effect that only affects half of my screen by using shaders.

Ideally, I would like to apply the effect to a rectangle that is placed at the front of the level and any object that passes behind it is distorted. So for example, if the player is standing in the water, waist high, only his\her legs will be distorted.

Any tips on how I could achieve this would be most welcome.

Hi guys, just wanted to make a couple of small requests concerning C2.

OK, first up, in the event sheet we have a nice window which provides us with easy access to the elements in our projects that we have created and this is a really useful feature but it seems that some items, such as currently created layers and also the animations that have been created for our objects, are not listed. Will this be addressed in the future or is there a reason that some things are not listed here? It would be very handy especially when you have large amounts of these items.

Secondly, sometimes when using the auto complete feature, when typing into the event editor, the case of the words is not correct. For example, if I type Enemy. it brings up my list of options and I choose Enemy.X but when entered it reads in lower case, enemy.x, yet another time it enters correctly with Enemy.X I cannot seem to get this to happen on a regular basis so I am not sure what is happening? Have others had this? Sadly, I cannot reproduce this so I have not posted to the bugs forum for that reason.

Also, in the event editor if you zoom all the way out so that the text is really tiny and then you try to add a new condition when you get to type your values etc... in they are also really tiny.

Oh and lastly, when using the brush tool in the image editor you can see a preview of what you are about to paint under your cursor but the other tools do not have this, like the pencil tool which just shows the cursor. Could this be added to make things a bit more intuitive as it feels a little awkward to use.

Thank you for your time.

Hello, I just wanted to ask if there is a possibility in a future release to support MIDI keyboard input (Not sure if this is possible with HTML5?)

Although it will not be useful to everyone, some cool things could be done with it, Music games spring to mind as well as software like Synthesia, the teach yourself Piano program.

Thanks for reading.

Fair enough, just a thought.

Hi all,

I was trying an emulator the other day and it had a nice feature that allowed you to export game play videos with sound\music as uncompressed files.

Is there any chance that we could see this in C2 as it could be really useful and I do not recall any other game creator having a feature like this.

There are lots of us who would like to take videos of our games to display on YouTube etc. without having to buy additional software that is up to the job, so I think that it would be worth the time to implement.

Just an idea...

I`m also using 64-Bit Windows with 32-Bit Firefox.

Is there a 64-Bit version of Firefox that is stable to use? I`ll have to take a look.

Hi noirfluo, I think that we are all eager for some new features but I believe Ashley will get around to adding these things in time we just have to be patient.

I`m sure that Ashley has a game plan and he is probably holding off of certain features for a good reason.

Maybe Ashley could give us a heads up without revealing exact details.

Thanks Arima for the suggestion, sounds like it could work. Lots of neat ideas here, thanks guys for taking the time to post.

Still hopeful for a possible official addition in the future.

Hi Tokinsom, yes I am aware of the Pixel Rounding option but it still isn`t quite what I`m after. It does help to some degree though.

I also agree that it should work for rotation and scaling, hopefully this is on Ashleys todo list?
