instance variable ( call it overlap ). If overlaping set to 1, in not set to 0. Then do whatever you want when it's one way or the other

It can save anything you want

oooops, actually I don't know why I put that /100 there, you don't need it. I need more sleep I think.

That is just the angle calculation, for some reason I was thinking of actual impulse force.

One thing though; I think it's annoying when you have to click to bounce the ball, just touching it with the cursor is much better, just make it hard enough.

Physics should work,

First just set your ball physics so it falls naturally and bounces nicely when it hits the ground ( try gravity and elasticity settings, density will also affect it )

Once you have that apply impulse at angle depending on where mouse is ( if ball is clicked ) . Straight up angle in construct is -90 so something like -90+(ball.X-Mouse.X)/100

divided by 100 because most likely impulse would be too strong and it would just fly off screen, but depending on your settings you can adjust that.

I chose Construct 2 over Unity because I too was coming from Flash, 2D and fake 3D. So, I would say yes. For me it was extremely easy to switch to Construct.

Where flash ( or whatever they call it now ) is still way ahead:

1. Drawing, creating and animating graphics within flash ( with Construct you will have to draw in some other program, perhaps even Flash and import into Construct )

2. It did not really depend on browsers, therefore it worked more or less the same on everything and you could make very good money with CPM Star, distribution was also easier.

It does not seem like you are planning on using ads and distributing your game to game portals so #2 may not matter to you, pisses me off though.

Don't use it as music. Import it into sounds folder and it should work just like everything else. Yes, music has the advantage of being streamed, but do you really need that?

If everything is downloaded before game starts there won't be any unexpected surprises. I think that outweighs any streaming benefits.

You are looking at conditions, set angle is in the actions part ( click add action on the right side )

It's not possible, but you can fake it as dop2000 suggested. But, you don't need a plugin for this

Get the time and date at regular intervals while game is being played and save in local storage ( every minute or so, because you don't know when a player will quit the game ).

Then, the next time game is started get the time and date as soon as it starts, then load the last time and date saved in local storage, and subtract that from this new date. Then just award number of points per each minute, hour of difference, whatever your want. Of course you will need to convert time and date to hours or minutes, depending on what you want to use as your unit of measurement

[quote:27swni7c]GooglePlay plugin is only for web. Not for mobile. (I know, it makes it pretty useless)

Does it work on mobiles when playing html5 games? If it does than it's far from useless. You don't have to upload to google play or apple store if your game already works without that.

Unless Construct 3 has some real bugs that will prevent you from making the game you want, go for Construct 3. That is where future of Construct lies.

But, right now it does not help you make better games, that is why I'm still on Construct 2. No need to switch to 3. ( hey, like I've said before, make my life easier by adding a working adsense or adsense for games plugin and you have my $99, by the way an experienced javascripter could code that in 2 days, so really what's the holdup? )

Trying those free versions is always a good idea, but considering their limitations I doubt you will be able to tell the difference ( other than the general feel of each ) . You can't really find major bugs until you have a fairly large project and start exporting things.
