Reply to Ashley and zsangerous:

Ashley: I decided not to use it in that game and have finished the game, but I want to use it in the future.... I could probably make a new one just with that action to show a .capx. I'll do that in a few minutes....

zsangerous: yes, the ball has movement using the arrow.   But from what I see in your post, should I have had the max speed at 1000 on the behavior of the ball to begin with? My max speed on the behavior is set at 200, acceleration:600, deceleration: 500. If I have the max speed already set to 1000 then the ball will move too fast. What I want to do is when they come in contact with a certain object, they will speed up very fast and run into a wall and be destroyed....it's sort of a booby trap so the next time they will pick a different path. I'll just make an example .capx and put it in dropbox.

I tried using an action and it doesn't seem to work. Perhaps I am doing it wrong.

(Ball) - on collision with another object (bar)

        Action: set speed to 1000

The ball was originally set to 400, but when I try it out the speed doesn't change. I'm new to construct2 but it wasn't hard to figure out after I read the beginners tutorial. Other actions seem to work ok, at least the ones I've tried, but this one doesn't seem to work.   I have 8 direction movement as a behavior on the ball.

Can anyone help? Thanks.

Edit: This is a ball you move with the arrow keys. I do not have bullet as a behavior. Is the set speed action only for bullet objects?

I figured out what I was doing wrong. I haven't used sitebuilder for over a year and realized that, duh, I was adding the html file right to a page, then when I opened it I was just seeing the code and not the game. I realized an hour ago that I have to link to the html file on my own site using an iframe......which I already knew, just forgot. lol

Thanks for the replies.

If you upload to dropbox and then link it to your website, can you make a facebook app that way? Or does the game have to actually be on your site? Thats the reason I want to add it to my site, so I can make a facebook app.

As I said, Ive used yahoo for webhosting before. I was able to upload flash files, video files, etc., but I am new to construct2 so I'm not sure how to go about it.

Also, is there a tutorial on how to upload to dropbox? Sorry for sounding like an idiot, I'm really not. lol

How hard can it be to learn? But where do I learn? It's too bad we can't export the file as a flash file. Those are easy to add to a website using sitebuilder.

Hello. I'm sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this, but how do I add a game to my website? I use yahoo sitebuilder. I've added flash games in the past and added other games, but I can't figure out how to do it with this program. I just downloaded the free trial last night and tried it and it seems pretty easy and makes nice games. I want to buy it but if I can't figure out how to add a game to my site, it will be useless to me.

I started reading this tutorial: scirra.com/tutorials/60/construct2-how-to-customize-the-exported-html5-indexhtml but I have no idea what it has to do with uploading a game to a website. (no offense meant to the author of the tutorial).

Also, what do I have to do to make sure these are set?

.appcache files: text/cache-manifest

.ogg files: audio/ogg

.m4a files: audio/mp4

Sorry if I sound like a newbie, I'm really not. I'm just new to this particular program and have never had to mess with appcache files, ogg, and m4a before.

Thanks!
