How are you suppose to use this when you cannot import s3m files into C2..

Accidentally stumbled upon this yesterday and i'm in love with it..

It's titled as a Procedural Tile Generator but can be used for pretty much any kind of pixel art plus it has onion layers ^^ and it's free <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy">

— - Did you try this:

(Pick by Comparison: Sprite1.Animation Name = "Animation1") & Is overlapping Object(Sprite2)

Yeah, that was one of the first things I tried which just refused to work for me, than I ended up using the object is overlapping and that seemed to work.

Regardless I think I have it fixed

The sprite is the object overlapping. Just add the extra condition "Sprite.Is playing" with the animation name.

Thanks for the response

Yeah I knew about the object is playing condition, only I have that one object doing multiple things, but yeah I had to find a work around using instance variables, but thanks!

This is pretty awesome, thanks !

I can't seem to figure out how to do a condition for if animation is overlapping object than do this..

I.E. I am trying to have an explosion animation trigger damage on another object but cannot use the "is overlapping object" since the explosion is a separate animation.

Is there no way to do something like "object's animation is overlapping > object" ??

Phew, thank you, but that raise more questions. Now, when I know what to look for, I see NW.js is also used as one and only way to make Windows executable. I though, C2 is producing actual standalone binaries for the Windows, plus maybe with some dll dependencies, DirectX etc. Though this suggests, the game will always run through intermediate code using NW.js as the wrapper, which is basically the Chrome. However, as the NW.js seem to be the only way to make Windows executable and I've seen some pretty complex games made with C2 that had no issues with the performance, I guess it's alright not to worry about the performace beforehand.

As far as I know NW.js is currently the only make to produce a Win binary executable with C2, I have yet to have a performance issue with C2 using the nwjs wrapper but I also focus heavily on performance and the weight of my gfx, sfx etc.

I.E. as soon as I build a mechanic for a game I immediately do a play-test and then look to see if there is anyway I can possibly optimize or shorten anything in said mechanic. But that is just my habit.

Also there are plenty of resources on keeping your game optimized in C2.

You can preview your game through NW.js instead of the browser

You could give the object you want to spawn in the bullet behavior then you could do this:

every 1 seconds

--- create sprite at (random(640),random(480))

--- sprite: set angle to random(360)

--- sprite: move forward -640 pixels

sprite: bullet distance traveled > 640

--- sprite: set speed to 0

There's also the third party move to behavior that may be useful here.

Actually that is somewhat close to what I am currently trying

My real issue is having the object created off-screen first, than launching the object at an angle on the veiwport than having that object stop randomly on the veiwport.

I have managed to get this kinda working, I used create object at (spawner-sprite) off screen than using bullets angle of motion at random(0, 90), this will effectively launch the object from the spawner-sprite onto the viewport on a horizontal angle, I wish I could do random(0, 90, 140) and encompass a larger area for the objects bullet to launch, the real problem is that some of the objects get launched on the border of the window and are half in/half out of the screen, of course this is because I am using a random angle as well as a random speed for the bullet launch, and I am not sure how to prevent it.

Edit : I managed to get the angles correctly working, now my only issue is destroying the object after it leaves the play screen without interfering with the object being created at the spawner-sprite.

Put the set speed action above the set angle action.

That fixed it.

Thanks for the help guys

Ahh, now I understand.

I'm afraid I can't really help you with that, that it really look good. There are people here I believe are fare more competent for this kind of problem.

But I've tried something.

It works, but it doesn't really looks like something 'flies in'.

Haha, well I tried your code and that just ends up making the objects act like leaves blowing into the viewport

I'm looking to get 1 object thrown into the viewport from a random direction every (random) seconds.

I appreciate you trying though!

This could work, but then you'll have to repack your game manually with NW.js, since first you'll need a HTML5 export to modify the code.

Really its a lot of work when you could just build your game around "scale inner" or "scale outer" and that would prevent the black bars in the first place and remove the option to right click for a context menu.
