  • I would start with something simpler like a top down shooter.

    But if you are set on doing a map game:

    You need to know how to use:

    global and local variables

    Control flow (Events/subevents, else, and toggle invert)

    How to use tiles sheets and tiledbackground.

    System commands (pick all, for each)

    After you have watched a couple tutorials on those topics you'really ready to start.

    Character movement will be something like

    on move event if character instance variable1 is greater than zero >

    move character x pixels then subtract 1 from variable1

    Else > out of moves

    Subtract more if over rough terrain.

    Character health and other statistics will probably be local variables as well.

  • Here is a reference for the key codes.

    you can also select a key by it's name by using the keyboard options under the key codes section.

    on key code 65 pressed

    is the same as

    on key a pressed

  • I'm trying to build a project that has a photo album.

    Rather than uploading all the pictures into the project, can I pull the images as needed from a file on my computer.

    Alternatively are there any websites that I can upload the photos to and later pull them from?

    [sprite >load image from "url"&Variable1&".jpg"]

    All the websites I've looked at so far seem to add a bunch of random letters to the end of the url which is messing up the cycling through pics with a variable.

    Since there could be alot of high res photos I need to find the best way to manage the pictures without bogging everything down.

    Ultimately this project will become a sortof help desk/kiosk.

  • If I make a project to sell it to a business does that business need to buy construct 2?

    The project itself won't be monitized, but since the business makes money on it's own that may count to the $5000.

    So when I pitch the project to the business I need to say that they will pay me X and $429.99 to Scirra?

  • Right click, add new condition.

    If score is > 1000

    And

    If score is < 2000

    Do action

    Or

    Name layouts "level 1,2,3 ect"

    On end of layout | system go to layout "level" & floor (score/1000)

  • thanks for your response, I was trying to get it only to work when all the taps occurred simultaneously.

    I managed to get it working now though.

  • is test mode turned off?

  • player > behaviors > 'bound to layout'

  • do you have a personal license? I think that's required.

  • Is there any way to check if 2 or 3 sprites are touched( or tapped) at the same time?

    the problem with "on touch start"/ "is in touch" combination is that a player could just leave his fingers on the screen. I need the player to tap one set of sprites, lift his hand, then tap a second set of sprites. If the player leaves his hand on the screen I want it not to register as in touch.
