  • Thanks guys. I will have to take a look at that video tonight. Along with your other beginner vids there ArcadEd :P

  • Now this I had not thought of. So a box for the main character sprite (lets call it PlayerColl) and then a box that spawns around the sword to check on collison when the swing happens? How would I keep the box pinned to the sword in that case to make the swords shape (or weapon shape) match for collison?

  • So I am in the planning stages of a 2D forced perspective Action RPG, akin to Legend of Mana and the upcoming indie game Cryamore.

    More like Legend of Mana in design. If you have no idea what that is look it up on Youtube, amazing game.

    I was pondering, however, how attack animations would work with melee weapons in a side scrolling action game. My first thought, and I am hoping I am correct here, would be to have the weapon sprite as a seperate entity, and have the player spawn the weapon sprite (at a particular animation, lets say SWING) while they animate the attack animation.

    Am I correct in thinking this is how it would work? Because if I have the player themselves animated with a sword, then having them hit an enemy would trigger both themselves getting damaged as well as the enemy, which says to me that the weapon sprite must be seperate, but I must also seamlessly integrate it with the sprites attack animation somehow. Not sure how I will do this (I assume spawn at image point)

    And then there is doing multiple animations so it doesnt feel stiff, but that is something else I will worry about once I figure this out 0_0

  • Click on the View tab to see grid options.

    Excellent! I shall when I get to work updating Omega Base this weekend :)

  • I would love an option to see the "grid" of the screen. Preferrably with a way to change the size of the grid (128x128 ect)

    Can you snap to the grid currently? Is that possible?

    This + a lil ol' encryption, would be extremely useful!

    Sadly I am a complete noob when it comes to Construct 2 or programming in general, so I got nothing haha.

    But it was an idea I had.

    But I have no idea if C2 is capable of out-putting to a text file.

  • Thumbs up on Steam Greenlight from me! :) Keep up the amazing work!

  • > Well for Valentines Day my wife got me Construct 2 :3 So here we go! :D

    Best love-proof ever or what ?

    Hell yea!

    Now I just gotta get started on my dream game: a Legend of Mana inspired RPG

  • Well for Valentines Day my wife got me Construct 2 :3 So here we go! :D

  • Welcome to the C2 Community.

    Hope you can enjoy make games with C2 :)

    Stomphoof Welcome to the community. I completely agree with you! This is a great place full of (mostly) great folks who truly like to help eachother move the platform forward!

    Thanks both of you. And BluePhaze: I have already used 2 of your platformer tutorials to see if I could learn how to do double and wall jumping. It was a lot easier then I thought it would be!

  • I never asked them to bow to my whims, I simply asked for either a Linux version or a refund. No whim involved. Windows had a whim to crash, I'm simply making the obvious choice for stability. Go figure that it's MY fault that I want something stable, and it's MY fault Windows keeps crashing, and it's MY fault Linux has been 100% stable on my system, so it's obviously ME that's the problem and not Windows.

    Yes, its your fault that you are having OS issues. Its not Scirra's fault that YOUR copy of WINDOWS is having an issue. They should not have to eat a refund because their software works FINE, but WINDOWS (a product owned by MICROSOFT) does NOT Work.

    Perhaps you should try updating your Windows? Reformat and install Win 7/8?

    Otherwise, you are just gonna have to tough it out.
