i realize this topic is a bit old, but i'm looking to download the bundled theme that was offered previously;

anybody know if they are still available?

Hi, if i create random data from a site like mockaroo.com, is there a way to import it into a table that your tool creates?

the site can export data in various formats including .xml, JSON, SQL, CSV, etc.

thanks

another update with bug fixes and game balance issues

sure, this is doable, but is there one on the actual Arcade page itself?

seems to me that would be more useful

On the Scirra Arcade

This game is in the same vein as the old STARFLEET I: The war begins from 1984.

Patrol different sections in your quadrant of the galaxy to eliminate the enemy threat and defend your starbases.

Please leave any feedback to improve the gameplay and/or bugs.

Thanks

Update to 0.99

feature complete -

new since last update:

• graphical and UI update
• added [T]RACTOR and OARDING function
• use the BOARDING feature to send troops to the enemy ship and neutralize them
• use the TRACTOR feature to haul the enemy to the starbase for extra resources

special thanks for MillionthVector for the sprite art, find more at http://millionthvector.blogspot.com

a minor update uploaded;

variety of bug fixes and play balancing;

started making a tool tip messages, easier way to 'DOCK' with a starbase, also added ability to deploy mines to hinder enemy movement - press 'B' to lay mines

yeah, I guess I should be more clear;

essentially, the white triangle represents your ship and the red diamonds represent the enemy, the goal is to eliminate 40 of them without hopefully losing any of the starbases (the yellow circle) which are scattered randomly on the map;

there is some energy management involved while your trying to do this, specifically, making sure there's enough energy to power the shields and weapons while still being able to move to different sectors;

the buttons near the bottom have to do with damage control, shield controls and the Long Range Sensors (LRS);

the damage control uses energy to help reduce the repair time of a damaged system,

the shield controls provide more narrow control over the 4 separate shields around the ship,

and the LRS is the map which is used to travel around in;

anyway, i'm working on a tooltip function which will hopefully provide info during the gameplay;

BTW, i figured out how to start the layouts correctly, it was just a simple initial layout selection in project properties;

whoops! forgot about the 'project properties' settings

here is my work in progress for a game called Sector Patrol;

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/626 ... index.html

it's my take on the old Starfleet - The War Begins by Trevor Sorensen;

the controls are detailed at the end of this post;

The problem is that there is supposed to be an intro screen and mission description screen that is supposed to appear before you get into the game, these are in their own layouts (i.e. Layout #1 - intro screen, Layout #2 - mission description screen, Layout #3 - Main Game screen);

is there a way to figure out why the game starts on Layout #3, i exported it as a HTML5 website and followed the default settings to put it in the dropbox public folder;

anyway, here are the controls for the game:

right click on enemies to target them or press 'R' to target the nearest one;

left click on the enemy or press 'Z' to launch torpedoes

press 'X' to fire Ion Beam to disable them, beam uses energy in direct proportion to distance from target;

press 'L' or the LRS button to access the map, can travel to different sectors by the 'Initiate FTL' button or can launch a probe if there is enough energy;

hopefully Shield controls and Damage controls are self explanatory, but can double click directly on the shield to raise it by 100 energy units;

Dock with a starbase by right clicking on it and press 'Y';

will be adding in new features regularly;

the same thing just happened to me as well;

was working on a project and the files in the temp folder were erased, there was no error at the time, everything saved correctly and exited, when i tried opening the file again the above message appears;

and i did have backups, actually in multiple locations, they are all giving the same error;

I restored all the erased files from the recycle bin, but still getting an error opening the project; in fact the specific location within the appdata/local/temp folder keeps changing;

why would this error affect the backups as well?

sounds like a bug to me, if not then there's a problem with how the project details are being saved

will continue to look for work arounds, would appreciate any help that anyone else has been able to come up with

wow, thanks for the help;

pretty good explanation as well,
