  • I'm finding it very tempting, though my main reservation is the extremely high sound latency I'm seeing, and that some people are still reporting issues with the fullscreen formatting...though it's working fine for me.

    Wish we could use Google Play Saved Games feature...would make it easy to save progress in the cloud, and switch from CJS to XDK export if we need to, without losing a player's progress.

  • Somehow I never grok'd what this was for until now...then I saw the fire example.

    Now I wanna go build a liquid sim with this effect...

  • Whoa, awesome! To modulate it, hold ctrl and roll your mouse wheel to zoom; the rez of the ascii field will change.

    Here are the old runtimes:

    To paraphrase an old post of mine on that thread:

    Once there, search for "Java SE Runtime Environment 8u40". DL the version that fits your system (x86/x64). You have to click the radio button next to "Accept License Agreement" for the download(s) to start. Then just install it, reboot C2, and the minifier will work again (hopefully).

    If that doesn't work, uninstall, work your way down thru versions.

  • Here's the thread where this happened before:

    I just exported with minification successfully. My system: Win7 x64.

    Searched for java in start bar search, clicked "about java". I get this:

    Version 8 Update 31 (build 1.8.0_31-b13) [/code:2eflazcw]
  • Works fine for me now...but I did have a problem like this in the past that required rolling back to an older version of java.

    Downloaded the latest build...and it works! Fullscreen on the debug app. Getting great perf.

    Couple more issues/questions:

    1. Now that I'm paying attention, I'm noticing a lot of latency on triggering sounds in game, aprox 500ms worth. Definitely more than is usual for android, and to the point of being very distracting for sounds that originate from collisions.

    I googled and found some old references to that problem, but nothing recent. Any updates on this? Anything we can do on our end?

    2. I noticed that there are only 2 apks now; it seems arm7 and x86 builds have been merged. I don't know why this was done, but I would strongly discourage bloating the apk by bundling in both runtimes, or at least make this an option we can disable.

    For an android user on an x86 platform, this would effectively make my game 250% larger than the platform specific build.

    On mobile we often go to great lengths to shave of a couple MBs off the final file; it's a trivial process to upload 2 apks vs 1.

    Noga

    Can you retest w/ newest builds?

  • True, but it is annoying, and, in my case, not a behavior I'd ever want to happen.

    An option in preferences? Fit events to window, Yes/No?

  • Here's tulamide's post. It's a real gem.

  • Well, it's little thing, but I like to add these as globals:

    TRUE = 1

    FALSE = 0

    NULL_ID = -1

    Sometimes I use 0 and 1 instead, but I like these for conditions like:

    PlayerActive = TRUE

    or, more usefully, calling a function, where I want to make it clear I'm passing a boolean val:

    Func SetFoobar(TRUE, 100, 200, 180)
