That does not worth anything, I want concrete answers <img src="smileys/smiley7.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Regardless of size, usually when you press the scale-to option in construct2 then export the file, the game you created normally scales to fit on phone screens. You can test your games on the cocoonjs phone app on youR android or ios devices as well, and see if this is how you want it

I've got a row of 10 sprites, and I want them all to spawn at the top of the screen, wait a few seconds, move down into the next row, wait, go active, die, respawn back at square one and just keep repeating this sequence. Problem is I don't know how to make them all move without having 30 different sprites.

Can't you set the enemies to a family then set them to bullet, then set there angle of motion to 270. You can then have an expression like:

Event---> System: enemiesfamily.Y > What Ever Vertical Distance You Choose

Action---> enemiesfamily destroy

Event--->enemiesfamly on destroyed

Action---> create object enemies at position (n,n)

      --->set angle of motion to 270

repeat-->10 times

n=the position you want them to respawn at

There is another way to do it without families but it seems like you found your answer

I am having trouble with this game I am making. I have 4 directional movement, and I want to shoot fireballs, but I don't know how to have them shoot out in front of the character. They just go to the right.

Also, I used blend on the Fireball to hide the black outline, but now the fire looks weird.

Here's a link:

PS. Press x to shoot fireball. Thats it. Nothing else. I just got started.

Here you go mate:

If you need a short description on how it works, just tell me here

If your confused then just post here and I'll see if I can help you out. Is there something more specific you want to do outside the layout?

Event --->Sprite.X >/ viewportRight(0)

ACtion--->then do |something"

Event --->Sprite.X </ viewportLeft(0)

ACtion--->then do |something"

The "0" is layer and the viewport is pretty much your window view. When the sprite's x value is greater then viewportRight or in this case when sprite goes past the right border of your window then something will happen.

Same goes for the left border of your window as well. If sprite's x value is lower then the viewportLeft, or its going towards the left so its showing negative values, then something will happen.

viewportLeft is usually "0", while viewportRight is usually the window view on your browsers Width

/ means greater then or equal to

</ means less then or equal to

I didn't fix the time yet, but if you want I can help you with it once I go over your capx file unless you have already figured it out. If not, then post it here and I'll try to help you

I want to reset the "countdown time" and everything when the game switch back to "main" and play again but not successful. Please kindly help with the attached capx.

Hey I was wondering if you knew about the "reset global variables command"? You could have an event such as "when game is over", then "reset global variables".

If your confused about what I just wrote, then I can help you edit your capx file if you want

Hey Retro,

I couldnt hear any sounds during the game at all, at times the spacing between the tiles is also visible.

Overall though its a cool little runner game imo. Love the dash effect, the explosions are cool. Character control felt good. The main character could be a little more refined but for 2-3 weeks a good effort.

I appreciate the kind feedback <img src="smileys/smiley1.gif" border="0" align="middle" /> , do you have any ideas to make it better? I know art readjustment is one thing,fixing the line problem for the sprites is another, and I'll be adding an options menu when I have time to allow people to assign there own controls, but I'm open to other things as well. Also I'll see if I can fix the sound issue, and were you playing it on chrome?

If there really are major problems you had with the game, definitely post it here, I won't hate on you for it. I like to learn from any mistake I make as it guides me to avoid it in the future and constructive criticism really helps

Hello,

I would like to ask if this is common and right or a bug:

I'm checking a family overlapping an object:

- Family Bullets is overlapping Player: Destroy bullet;

and it's destroying all the bullets on the screen.

But I supposed to check a family and destroy the object would give me the able to check any type of bullet and only destroy that I told him.

So, going ahead with this mentality, I can make bullets that can pass through the player and others being destroyed on contact.

But by the other side, I could check the family and make to destroy the family, but that check didn't encapsulated the event only for the specific object meeting the conditions?

When you use families for collision check to destroy a general bullet then its going to assume if any sprite object in your "family" collides with player, then only the general bullet is destroyed. If your general bullet is in the family as well then it would be destroyed too.

Its gonna depend moreso on what your wanting to achieve. You could normally check for the instance of an object, if that same particular object is placed on the screen more then once, maybe then you would check the instances of the object and destroy the one you want to destroy. Now if you have all the general bullets in the family and you want them all to be destroyed, then family would be the easiest way since there basically grouped together as one sprite type.

But if there's a specific bullet you want to be destroyed, and you want the others to be in the screen, then go for the instance check instead because then you could target which bullets be destroyed, and which bullets be on screen.

I'm still a bit fuzzy on what I had just read
