  • Apparently the bar was hiding to the left of my leftmost monitor. There was a 1 pixel vertical line that I managed to pull with my mouse cursor and the window stretched until I managed to grab and drag it.

    Seems like a simple solution but it was tricky as hell to spot where the window was at.

    Thanks anyway guys.

  • I saw other posts similar to this one but their problem was that they accidentally closed their properties window and wanted to get it back.

    Mine is open somewhere... just off-screen it seems!

    If I tick/untick/tickharder the tick button for the properties window nothing happens... what should I do?

    I'm trying to avoid reinstalling as I've got plenty of plugins installed. Is there a reset workspace button or file?

    Thanks!

    EDIT: I am using a triple screen setup with DisplayFusion.. I tried disabling both but that didn't seem to fix it. My sprite editor is showing up on the wrong screen as well.

  • I used OBS to record games I built for my twitch stream. I used display capture instead of game capture and it worked fine.

  • Try Firebase, rex made plugins for it.

    This works wonders busydude thank you!

    It was relatively easy to set up in the Firebase backoffice.

    I bought an example .capx from the Scirra store that wasn't that good (too messy!!) but I believe it to be the only one available.

    Took me a day and a half but I just modified the login system enough to suit my needs and I'm currently adding leaderboards and everything seems easy and smooth now.

    Again, thanks for your suggestions guys!

    Why post in a 2 year old Construct Classic thread, using an example not even using CC - your example is likely C2.

    Terribly sorry - I noticed the thread was old but the issue still current.

    I didn't notice it was Construct Classic and for that I apologise!

  • Hi guys,

    I just wanted to present an alternative to the great R0j0's suggestion. Seems lighter and uses base events instead of code which makes it easier for some people to understand.

    Set Global Variable: Idle_Counter = 200
    
    Keyboard: on any key pressed 
    ->  Set Idle_Counter to 200
    
    Every 0.1 seconds
    -> IF Idle_Counter<=0
    ->->Set Idle_Counter to 200
    ->->...and whatever actions you wish to perform
    [/code:1y79ga94]
    
    The reason why I reset the variable in the last part is because I'm using it to recall a layout which doesn't reset the variable at start.
    I'm using "Every 0.1 seconds" instead of "Every tick" to reduce processor usage.

    Thank you for your reply, but I'm trying to avoid having to delve into PHP which is really difficult for me.

    It was a bit tricky to set up Firebase at first but the template from the store is well worth the money and it worked just fine!

    Thank you very much Busydude! I hope I can help you out someday somehow!

  • Try Firebase, rex made plugins for it.

  • Thank you for your reply!

    I'll look on the bright side of your answer: If this is a no-go then I've got to find an alternative route.

    If anyone has any alternative suggestions they would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks guys,

  • Hi guys,

    I'm trying to make a login/authentication system that relies on a database with player usernames, passwords, scores, achievements and certain game variables.

    How can I do this without going into PHP and the likes?

    I heard about Parse (discontinued) and Heroku... I'm using REX's plugin for Parse connections, but I get a browser CORS (access content from another server security issue) error whenever I try to connect to their server.

    I'm not too familiar with Google Play systems or Battlegrounds, but I believe they require a login from their platform (which I want to avoid) and they only store usernames, passwords, scores and achievements... can anyone confirm that?

    Am I doing something wrong? Is there any other way to do this?

    Thanks!
