Anyone?

To me right now a layout is a game itself... I had no idea I could load a different layout and xfer data between the two layouts as if they both we're a single game.

If I can get a handle on how this works I can do the fine details later as I get to the point where I've added the caves to the top down layout

Oh wait a whole new layout.. OK OK.. So I can swap from one layout to the next while retaining the character info for the previous layout. If your top down player enters a top down cave, it must swap to the side scrolling cave adventure, when you exit the old layout needs to be restored with your character standing next to the mine

How would you separate the layers for both modes and swap between them? Currently all layers are top down... If I add another layer it will be part of the top down game when I hit play... So your saying I can separate say 10 layers of side scrolling and then load those when needed... Then go back to the top down layers afterward.

Not sure on screen perspective.. To me the only thing that determines that is how the graphic is drawn either top down or side view

I'm so glad you suggested that as I hadn't considered layers as a way to swap... That may sound stupid considering I'm using layers for the top down part but I still think from a coding standpoint. Just got construct2 for Christmas.

Mmmm I'm gonna have lots of layers lol if I use them for each cave on a map.

And sorry for the slightly weird wording... Damn cell phones can't stop auto correcting things that don't need correcting

So the main part of my game is top down original Zelda type game, I want to be able to have an even say you find a cave and have the whole game swap to a side scroll platformer like Mario.. After you finish the level you return to the top down Zelda mode.

With old languages and coding I would silly wipe the screen and load a new for side scrolling then wipe that and reload the top down.

Is this possible? Haven't gotten to the point I need to imolement it yet but do need to know if I can

I was wondering if it's possible to have an even that swaps a games mode? For example your roaming around on a top down view landscape... You say find a cave , go in and then the game swaps to a side scrolling adventure. You complete this, exit the cave and your back to your top down view again.

I know that separately these are possible, just wanting to know if I can have both in a single game and swap as needed like the example above

Thanks guys!

Thats awesome !! this sdk seems cool... im used to having to program all the things its already got lol before i even got to see all the pretty graphics.

Thinking about giving scirra a whirl but am wondering can you sell your games on steam? I see lots of platforms listed like IOS and android but steam isn't listed on the main page.

Thanks
