Is this a Physics game? You need to try different settings for Elasticity, Friction, damping etc, for both the ball and the ground. Also, try changing the collision polygon, or change Collision mask to "Bounding box". If nothing helps, you can add an event to set the ball as immovable when it collides with the ground.

It works for me, but I can only download the first dictionary.

You can try adding Browser object and do "Browser invoke download of string", with string DictionaryName.AsJSON

.

Also, saving 5 dictionaries one by one is pretty annoying. You need to combine them into one string with line breaks between them, and then save that string.
Text Variable s Set s to Dict1.AsJson & newline & Dict2.AsJson & newline & .... Browser invoke download of string s

If you need to load dictionaries from the saved file, parse it using tokenat expression:

Dict1 load from JSON string tokenat(s, 0, newline)

Dict2 load from JSON string tokenat(s, 1, newline)

If you need to move like in the video, this is not a very simple task. It includes isometric projection, grid-based pathfinding, grid-based movement, directional animation..

Check out the Turorials section, there are lots of examples on how to do these things.

You should stop multiposting. It's your third post about the same issue.

You can create a group and add local static variables inside this group. These variables will not get reset, but will only be accessible by events from this group.

Another solution is to create an object "Settings" (for example an empty sprite), set it as Global and add instance variables to it.

If you want to keep these values between gaming sessions, you should save them into Local Storage.

LOL, why did you tag me in a new post? :)

Random spawn without overlapping is a very popular question here, try searching this forum. The common solution is to add a While loop, in which you set a random position and repeat the loop while the object is overlapping other objects. Here is one example, see events 9-12:

Also I found this tutorial:

You can use "Set position to another object" action, it allows to select image point.

Or you can set position to Head.ImagePointX("pointname"), Head.ImagePointY("pointname")

How do I tag users who have space in their name? For example:

construct.net/users/312745/legendary-studio
I tried "@legendary-studio", "@legendary_studio" and "@legendary studio", none of these methods work.

The workaround is to not use any Form Control objects. There are lots of issues with them.

You can make your own custom text input box:

What does "origin name" mean? If you want to set item to player position, do this:

Item set position to (Player.X, Player.Y)

Make sure that items and player sprites are on the same layer, or on layers with the same parallax.
