  • Hey guys, I'm very new to animation and 8-direction movement and I was wondering if I could get some troubleshooting for why my sprite keeps jumping around the screen when I use my WASD controls.

    Thanks in advance!

  • Answered my own question about stretching in Chrome (giggety). Found the Project property to change that. Wow, I feel like I'm starting over with Construct because it's been so long since I've used it.

  • Seems to be a problem with the TextBox object. I made text into PNG's in GIMP and inserted them as pictures, and the alignment is fine now. Still don't really understand the textbox problems. Also, does it stretch in Chrome by default?

  • Hey everyone,

    I'm going through a tutorial and my run time moves my text boxes around. Any idea how to fix?

    Thanks!

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads
  • So I went into the only spot I found to change this

    Preference -> html5 exporter

    I changed the browser to Firefox because I want to use an extention in Firefox, saved my program, restarted, verified that it was still the browser selected..

    And it still launches in Chrome (which is my default). I even tried a custom browser and linked to the exe.

    Am I doing something wrong?

    Thanks,

  • So, I understand Construct opens your game at: localhost:50000

    My IIS server runs at localhost:80

    I want to load a php off my web server from my game, but they're both using localhost.

    Is that communication still going to be blocked by my [Chrome] browser, even though it's still part of my local machine?

    Thanks,

  • Thanks vee. I think I was under the assumption that Arrays were stored and saved in separate files for later use. It appears they are not.

    I eventually want my program to store and retrieve info from an outside database. Is that possible? I imagine with Facebook integration, they are accessing server data at least a little bit.

    If you can't within Construct 2, is it possible to add Python integration into your program?

    I guess I'm a little confused about how to save and access data from other files.

  • The first part of my program has a user enter their name, which is saved as CharName variable.

    I want to create a new Array with the name CharName, during a click event, but I can't figure out:

    1) How to create a new Array during an event.

    2) How to edit the Name field of the Array to make Array.Name = CharName

    Any ideas?

  • Got it and it works!

    Thank you both!

  • I cannot find a "Set text to left" command anywhere. How do I get that in there?

  • Is there a Property for the TextBox to set a maximum number of characters a user can input in the field?

    Thanks,

    BJA
