<font size="5">Need Help With Random Positioning Of Asteroids...</font>

Hi,

My first C2 game is almost finished.

It's an Asteroids remake.

I need help with the random positioning of new wave level asteroids.

Currently I do this to setup asteroids on a new game/wave level:

<img src="http://16bitsoft.com/V2/Files/RocksInSpace/Images/RIS_RandomPerimeterOnly-01.png" border="0" />

The above positions a new asteroid randomly anywhere on the screen.

What I need is to place the new asteroid on only the perimeters of the screen.

How would I create an event to do the above?

I know how to write it in C++, but am having great trouble in making it in events.

Perimeter would be:

(1) x = 0 & y = any

(2) x = 640 & y = any

(3) x = any & y = 0

(4) x = any & y = 480

Help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Removing the frame skipping would make the game unplayable due to the lag ...

For Performance reasons , I don't think it's possiblei,

There should be an option in the IDE to turn off frame skipping?

I would prefer the game maintained all frames at a slower pace.

Manual entry about global and local variables.

You define global variables in event sheets and those are global to the whole project/all the event sheets (even a not-executed event sheet).

The position of global variables in the event sheet doesn't really matters.i,

Well, ok, thanks!

<font size="5">I Notice Frame Skipping On Slow Hardware?</font>

Hi,

Ran my game on a 10 year old desktop.

It runs, but is skipping many frames to maintain 60FPS??

How do I turn of frame skipping?

<font size="5">Do Global Variables Exist-Where Do I Declare Them?</font>

Hi,

I'm finishing up my 1st "Construct 2" video game now.

Starting to thing about a high score table for the game.

I need global variables for the table but don't know where to declare them?

Thanks!

In the Browser plugin, the expression "Name", "UserAgent", and even a combination of those.i,

Thanks, I check out the Browser plugin.

My question is if I use a plugin can I still upload to the SCIRRA Arcade site?

Thanks!

Hi,

There is no command to see what browser is being used?

> We are disappointed to see IE10 still does not support the free Vorbis audio codec, either in Ogg or a WebM container.

Source: IE10 review: still disappointing for HTML5 gamesi,

This is rather frustrating.

I made an HTML5/JS game from the ground up and the audio worked on IE10.

Why can't "Construct 2" audio work on IE10??

<font size="5">Command To Detect Browser Game Is Played On?</font>

Hi,

About done with my 1st "Construct 2" game.

I've started to test the game on multiple browsers.

Game runs 100% on Google Chrome and Mozilla FireFox,

but Windows 8 Internet Explorer 10 has no audio or WebGL.

Is there a method to see what Internet browser is being used?

(want to display a message for IE users to tell them IE sucks)

Thanks!

WebGL is not supported by Internet Explorer, and not sure what the issue is regarding audio without a capx, but playback rate often causes weird issues in IE.i,

Here is the capx file:

That sucks that Microsoft does not support WebGL.

Hope we can get the audio working though in IE10

Thanks!
