  • R0J0hound It worked! Thanks so much!

  • Hm, you are right. I tested before posting that comment, but I probably put "Set group deactivated" action after "Restart layout", that's why it stayed deactivated.

  • Yes, it happens in Incognito mode too.

    Edit: I ended up completely reinstalling Chrome, removing all Google folders in %AppData% folder and some registry entries. It seems to be working fine now.

  • Thanks, Ro0j0!

    I understand your idea, but don't know how to implement it.

    I've already tried doing this with quarp/cubic, but the edges of the sprite are wrong.

    I guess I need three rows of points. Position the middle row in an arc, then move the top and bottom points perpendicular to the middle row, right? What would be the formula for this?

  • This started to happen yesterday. At first I noticed that icons disappeared for a couple of objects. But as I continue working, it gets much worse - see the screenshot:

    Restarting the editor helps, but after a minute or two the issue returns. I tried clearing browser cache and data, disabling extensions, it didn't help.

    Is there any other solution?

  • How do I make a "soft bend" to any given angle with minimal texture distortion? I want to do something like this:

    All objects are re-created, except global and the ones with Persist behavior.

  • Memory compression is a new feature in Win 10, I don't know how it works, and why multiple instances of the same sprite increase compressed memory usage.

    But the important number is 3700MB and it's definitely a lot for just one sprite. You need to find some ways to optimize it.

  • I'm struggling with the release of the orbit around a point, as it doesn't follow the swing's momentum

    Check out this demo:

  • Check out beginners templates in Construct, for example the "Platformer" demo.

  • You can make the rope invisible, but I guess the principle will be the same.

    There are several ways to do this. One time I made a realistic grappling hook mechanics with Physics behavior - when the hook is attached, I disabled Platform and enabled Physics, creating a revolution joint and applying impulse. But I wouldn't recommend this, as Physics is not compatible with other behaviors like Solid etc.

    You can also use Orbit behavior to rotate the player around the hook point.

    Or use Sine/Rotate behavior on the rope and pin the player to it (disabling Platform temporarily).

  • Making a grappling hook in C3 may be a tricky task. There are a couple of official templates:
