  • I figured it out.

    Sign out of that account in a different page of the browser and sign in with the one I want.

  • I use OneDrive for saving. I accidentally signed in with the wrong account and now I can't figure out how to switch accounts. Since the account I signed in as doesn't load a file list, the sign out button (person with a slash through them) is greyed out.

  • You can make the parent project the same way you are making the ebooks with construct 3. You can then add links to the individual ebooks using the browser object.

  • Assuming the characters are all separate objects you can put them all in a family then give the family a boolean instance variable named "Downed". Set the boolean to "true" when in the save event you set their animation.

    You can pick all of them in an event with "Is boolean set"

  • I would like to use the tab key in a word game I am working on. The event to use the tab key makes the actions happen but also switches out of my game to highlight something else in the browser, usually another tab.

    Is there a way to force the focus to stay on the game?

  • In the guide it says 'unique' number. I took that to mean unique across the whole run of the game, not as it actually is, unique at any one moment.

  • Try Construct 3

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads
  • When using the mouse to simulate touch, touch.touchID is always 0. There is no warning about this in the documentation.

    The problem is present in Construct 3 also but touch.touchID is always 1

  • Horizontally aligned text with white space at the end trims the white space in the C2 editor but not when the project is viewed in a browser. No problem with left justified text.

    R265 Windows 10 Pro

    Works properly in all browsers, error is in display in the browser.

    Link to .capx https://1drv.ms/u/s!AjosfNFG8jCjnpANRNgnFqZXkEm7eg

    steps to reproduce:

    1. Add a text object
    2. make text right justified
    3. add space on the end of the text

    What should happen: Both editor and html view should show space on the right.

    What does happen: html view should space on end, editor does not.

    This is a very minor bug and it doesn't really need to be patched but I did waste 15 minutes trying to figure out what event was shifting my text that looked properly aligned in the editor only to discover that it wasn't an event but a difference in the rendering.

  • For others with the same problem that find this in the future:

    Ashley wrote a tutorial to help https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/279/troubleshooting-construct-2s-preview-server

    I fixed it by changing the port. No idea why 50000 stopped working after years.

  • I get the following error when previewing

    ---------------------------

    Preview HTTP server

    ---------------------------

    Unable to start HTTP server for preview. Construct 2 can try to reconfigure your computer to allow the server to run. The server is currently set to run on localhost The reconfiguration will be permanent and may affect other servers running on your computer (if any). Would you like Construct 2 to try and reconfigure your computer for preview?

    I am using C2 V264 on Windows 10 Pro V1809. This problem wasn't there two weeks ago and other than updating Windows I don't believe there have been any important changes to my computer.

    Construct 2 asks to fix the problem. If I run with admin privileges it says

    ---------------------------

    Preview HTTP server

    ---------------------------

    The reconfiguration appears to have been successful. Construct 2 will try to restart the HTTP server when you click OK.

    ---------------------------

    OK

    ---------------------------

    But the problem isn't actually fixed.

  • Please Close. This was a problem with the host not serving the .m4a files.

  • After some investigating it appears that only the .ogg files are playing, if I remove them then it doesn't work on Edge anymore even though edge should be able to play .m4a. It could be related to how I am hosting the exported app.
