  • Maybe I still don't understand how fullscreen scaling is supposed to work, but to me this looks broken.

    Here's a platformer test with a window size of 240x252. Run in preview mode and you should see a familiar pink buggy rolling over a green mountainscape

    dl.dropbox.com/u/57216006/fullScreenScale.capx

    Now set Project->Fullscreen in Browser to On(scaled) and preview the project-> the background has disappeared.

  • This appears to still be an issue with r76. I exported my r75 and tested it- everything looks good. Installed r76, opened the r75 project, hit export and now the hotspots have moved back to center instead of bottom-left where they used to be.

  • The so called Communism of which you speak is/was actually totalitarianism, covered with a thin veneer of "Communism".

    True communism--where everyone works for the community; where work and resources are equally shared, based on need and ability; where no one is in charge--would be a good thing.

    It's been over 160 years since communism was suggested. All countries that claimed to be communist or headed that way were totalitarian. At this point I think it's safe to conclude that communism is de facto totalitarianism.

  • Instead of thinking of all the illegitimate content on Megaupload -- and I will admit, there was plenty of it -- think of all the people hosting legitimate files on it who just lost everything. Think of all the copyrighted content on Youtube, much of which stays up forever and ever; why isn't it getting shut down instead?[/IMG] Yep- think of that and get mad at the Megaupload people for being criminals. If they had done their job just like Youtube then this legal content would still be up.

    If you own content and send a form to youtube saying that somebody uploaded it illegally then youtube will remove that content. Megaupload would simply ignore those requests- and that's why they are going to jail.

    bet they knew about this for a while and they waited on purpose. It's just how a shady gov. like the US gov. works. nvestigation was going on for 2 years.

  • "It begs the question that if you can find and arrest people who are suspected to be involved in piracy using existing laws, then why introduce further regulations which are US-only and potentially damaging."ecause the servers were running in the US and the owners were in countries with copyright laws and extradition treaties. SOPA is about people hosting content say in China where nobody can touch them.

    Noteworthy point is that MegaUpload has been violating the DMCA safe harbor provisions, i.e. they did not take down content that they were told was infringing copyright. So.. good riddance.

  • Ooooh clever. I like it <img src="smileys/smiley20.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

  • Great job!

    We have lots of programming tutorials but not much about creating artwork. I would be curious to read a step-by-step guide of how you go about creating one of your buddies.

  • Nice graphics !

    You should have a native English speaker fix the game over page.

  • Is there a good solution for adjusting the animation frame for isometric sprites in that case?

    In my code I do it like this:

    +For every Jeep:

    ->Set Animation Frame= (Self.CustomMovement.Angle>45 & Self.CustomMovement.Angle<135) ? DOWN_SPRITE_FRAME : Self.Frame

    ->Set Animation Frame= (Self.CustomMovement.Angle>=135 & Self.CustomMovement.Angle<225) ? LEFT_SPRITE_FRAME : Self.Frame

    etc.

  • Here's one way:

    * Create a global variable monster1Remaining=1

    * Add System.Every Tick: Set Variable monster1Remaining=Monster1.Count

    * Do a check if there are no more monsters and if at least 25 seconds have passed. Change your System.Time=25 seconds to

    System.Time>=25 and monster1Remaining<=0

    Of course you will now realize that this leads to problems in later levels and that just checking for the current system time is no good. Instead you will need another variable that tells you how much time has passed since the current monster level has started. That is left as an exercise for the reader ;-)

  • Chrome doesn't work for me- Firefox does.

    Click on Export button and have your friends open the exported index.html file in Firefox.

  • Read the manual regarding Groups.

    Your level 1 spawn function could simply be

    Every 3 seconds -> Create monster

    Now wrap this inside a group:

    Level-1-spawn: Every 3 seconds -> Create monster

    After 20 seconds you disable this group using System.Set Group Active:

    Trigger Once: Every 20 seconds: System.Set Group Inactive (Level-1-spawn)
