  • Sure, but how does that help the server from disconnecting randomly?

  • So I was testing this on an Ubuntu server using Firefox. I tested it again on a Windows PC using Chrome and it stayed connected for 5 days so far. Maybe it's a firefox issue?

  • That's exactly how I am building it. The problem is, once the server disconnects randomly, another peer becomes the host I believe. So when I try to reconnect to that room as the host it can't.

    I'll test this theory out though. However, just disconnecting at all is going to cause game issues as the server will constantly be doing something game related. So even a quick hiccup of disconnect, reconnect will cause issues.

    I'd like to figure out why its disconnecting at all. Thanks.

  • I'm working on something that requires a dedicated server, using the Multiplayer plugin for Construct. Using the Multiplayer Chat example, I'm launching it from an off site linux machine. Everything works fine, it launches as host, I can connect to it from my PC as a peer.

    Problem is, after x amount of hours the server just disconnects. I've trying having the server post in the chat every 10 minutes to show it's still active, it still happens.

    With how the MP Plugin works, if I just simply reconnect the server will no longer be the host.

    1. Is there something I am missing here that is causing the host to disconnect after so many hours?

    2. Is it the Construct signalling server that is the issue? Does it have a time limit on how long connections are active?

    3. Is there a better solution than the official Multiplayer Plugin?

    Thanks as always.

  • Great, thank you for both answers.

  • If I missed the area to post suggestions for Construct, I apologize. Maybe this can be moved there.

    I'm running into an issue with several games where my audio files are just too loud. I wish there was an easy to way to REPLACE the audio file being used with a right click. Rather than having to delete it and reimport. This can screw up all kinds of events when the audio is removed. I know I can go into events and adjust the volume as well, but I would rather just start with audio files I have fixed..

    Maybe it is possible and I just don't see how?

  • Problem 1

    I invoke a download so it will download a png

    When i invoke string i creatie a json file but then i sometimes mis a download file png or json.

    I didn't do any downloading. Everything is contained within the Construct 3 project. All my images are frames of a sprite and randomly selected.

    Problem 2

    The json file is still empty so in need to fill it with data like the color of te background.

    So how to fill the json file.

    Again, I don't fill the JSON files in code. All my JSON files are created at the beginning within Construct 3. Each trait having a JSON file with the different options.

    Contruct 3 then spits out a JSON for each Image it creates.

    Problem 3

    The rarety you have is awsome can’t even figure out how to make them unique ( you call This build code ).

    Rarity is just a product of having more or less options in each trait. More options, means there is less of each one. I didn't code in anything "Weighting" per say. Just let the chips fall where they may.

  • Hi Arcadeed i like to make nfts also with construct 3.

    I got the downloads of different png working ( do you have some tips on the metadata i fail at script things ).

    also i saw in your video a nice dna structure can you help me that 2?

    Hope te hear from you.

    It's been a while since I did this project, but let me know what you need help with exactly and I'll try to remember :).

    I want to learn more about NFT. Any good sources?

    I guess it depends on what you want to learn. It's a lot of info. Maybe just start by watching some NFT youtube videos. What they are, etc.
