The second issue is the way Every X seconds work, it does not reset between layout (it is every X seconds taking the start of the game for reference).

I'll admit you are not the only one to think it should restart between layouts

Counter object or "interface bar" - More support for animated counters with numbers, health bars, etc. the ability to import ONE image and have it be displayed mulitple times as lives without having to import say, an image of one heart, then an image of two hearts, then an image of three hearts... rather just import a picture of a heart and it displays it multiple times.

Path movement - different from "path finding", not to get confused. if you have EVER used GM or MMF it should be obvious what this is. basically define a path for the object to move on, that's all there really is to say. the support for this that GM has is better than MMF. it lets you flip a path, rotate it, etc, and has the ability to make the path curved while MMF doesn't.

I also want the ability to set the position of a bgm based on milliseconds and not seconds.

I do not know what you call a counter object, for the health bars and the ability to display image multiple times, either the tiledbackground or a special use of the spritefont could be of help.

Path movement: that is a nice suggestion, an easy way to do that would be nice.

For the bgm, I am not sure but does setting to values like 0.431 seconds works? If it works, I think there is no real need for that (could be still nice though).If it does not however, there is need.

As for the community, here I mostly saw people willing to help (however when people do not want to be constructive the community seems to fight back, let s hope it stays fine)

Kyatric So why the difference in results?

And I was under the impressions that cocoonjs was now using webgl on ipad

WebGL, if not supported, can still be forced (maybe cocoonJS was doing that)

In some cases it is fine, even better than having it disabled, but in other cases, you understand quickly why it is not enabled by default (graphical glitches, crashes, difficulties..).

Hello,

What i wish to do is take Object A angle and set Object B position relative to the angle of Object A at a certain distance (lets say 200pixels) so if the Object A is taking another direction, the Object B must stay at 200 pixels in front of Object A at 200 pixels of position of Object A. The idea is if i am shooting object A that object b could serve as a detector in front of Object A. (This is not a line of sight only a simple detector.)

Any ideas what i can use for this ?

Thanks for your help! Greatly appreciated.

you could use the Pin behavior on ObjectB, and pin "position and angle" relative to Object A

Or you could set ObjectB position to :

X: 200*cos(ObjectA.Angle)+ObjectA.X

Y: 200*sin(ObjectA.Angle)+ObjectA.Y

Or even set an object point in the image editor 200 pixels forward the center of ObjectA, and set the position of ObjectB to it.

I do have two monitors in the office with one is being a large screen. I suspect somehow the last location of the window is hardcoded based on the big monitor... There must be a file where it's getting the last settings. I did uninstall it as it downloaded the new version but it didn't change any settings.

In the "Preferences" dialog, there is the Reset Dialog button that could solve your problem

The text changes.

I edited my post just after posting it, but it was too late:

I meant drawing this picture into a separate canvas.

The problem is, if I'm getting 5fps in a mobile, that means the device is doing a ton of work.

True, the user probably doesn't care, but his battery will notice for sure. Especially since this is a visual novel, so it's supposed to be experienced in long stretches.

Also, just throwing this out there, if the most frequent bottleneck on mobiles is fill rate, why not limit the redrawing to only the parts that change? Yes it's impossible in some types of games, and yes you get a bigger hit on the CPU, but on the other hand the GPU will have less work to do.

EDIT: I wonder if drawing this picture into a separate canvas (through the canvas plugin) would mean that the canvas itself would not be redraw on screen, and so help for that.

— one big sprite with some color palettes will have 10 mb of memory, then a pack of 30 sliced sprites from big sprite will have same memory 10 mb.

I have another project uses 2 or 4 colors, C2 says it uses 1.5 mb memory usage, then it's on preview using chrome, it uses less than 5 mb of memory.

I was wondering if I make an another project without sprites, I use text and set as ImageMemoryusage expresssion, then started to run and it says 9.68 mb of memory by a plain white background, that's odd.

I think C2 adds by default twice the rendering area to this expression, I am not entirely sure though, but that ciuld explain it.

And for the PS, I was extrapolating, I know you aren't like that, was just constating that some points could be clearer, since a lot of people misinterprets them sometimes, not towards you.

No, the green arrow means it is a trigger (either a action called at some point, or an action that is triggered once while true).

In the comparaison done by Sumyjkl , only instances of A that have varA to true will be concerned (If I am not mistaken)

However I suggest not trying a collision check between two instances of the same object if possible

Layout scale adjusts the scale of a layout. Indeed I would use this to control the zoom but before I can zoom I need to know how much. For that I need the resolution of the display....

For example. Lets say I have a game with 100x100. On a 200x200 device I would set the layout scale to 2. on a 300x300 device I would set the scale to 2... crop would fill out the edges... Basically I would scale by whole numbers but I need to know the display resolution to do this.

May question is - how do I find the resolution of the device?

The viewports expressions, or the browser expressions ScreenWidth and ScreenHeight should help

> Well the basic idea is stupid by itself so I guess It is normal, for ze lulz as some say.

> ou mean the fact that thousands of people connecting at one time to complete a task is stupid? Not sure if you're serious or trolling, hahah.

you got me there x)

running an animation at 120 fps while the computer and mobile is running at 60 fps top speed is not useful at the end, since half of them only will be seen (also not sure how C2 handles the fact that the animation is quicker than the actual framerate).

a 29 frames animation seems really a lot here (since at 120 FPS, it should run the 29 frames in 0.24 seconds), try to see if dividing the number of frames by 2 and the speed of the animation by 2 helps in that case.
