Sorry, I thought this was a "I have a bug in my program" forum I didn't know these were meant for declaring a bug with construct 2 itself. I think I may have posted in the wrong place, excuse me.

Yes, it only gets deleted after the tile map erase I have also tried manually going through the tile and just using Erase Tile on a case by case scenario and I still get the same error. It seems there is something going on with erasing a tile on a tilemap next to an object with physics. Also tried disabling all the physics I could during the tile erase and no luck so far.

Physics_behavior.js:10 Cannot enlarge memory arrays. Either (1) compile with -s TOTAL_MEMORY=X with X higher than the current value 33554432, (2) compile with ALLOW_MEMORY_GROWTH which adjusts the size at runtime but prevents some optimizations, or (3) set Module.TOTAL_MEMORY before the program runs.

Should I rebuild the procedural generated level to be individual sprites instead of a tilemap If i want to make explosions like this?

Update: [b]No problems If I don't use any physics.[/b] Hate to give them up it looked so awesome. I know it is something I am needlessly mixing up stuff in the background probably, because in my mind it shouldn't be a calculation issue with removing an 8 x 8 tile range and physics objects simply dropping because nothing is below them. Can't figure out what I am doing wrong. procedural generated tilemap levels with explosions that erase tile ranged near bomb. Hmmm Objects that had physics behavior is Matches, Bombs and the Foreground Tilemap (solid level one)

Problem Description

When using a tilemap based level I have a bomb going off after 3 seconds of being lit, but it seems no matter how I arrange it that Erase Tile Range action produces a Uncaught Abort() at Error with physics. I have literally disabled every part of my code and this is the only line that creates the error.

Wait 3 seconds

Erase Tile Range

X: TilePlanet.PositionToTileX(abs(bomb.ImagePointX(0) - 128)) + 1

Y: TilePlanet.PositionToTileY(abs(bomb.ImagePointY(0) - 128)) + 1

Width: 8

Height: 8

UPDATE: I have tried limiting to one at a time and using Erase Tile Range in other fashions This action always seems to produce this error after awile. I have also used Erase Tile marching the 8 x 8 square range and erasing each tile manually and it still produces this same error.

Description of Capx

____ Concise description of what this CapX does ____

It is a side view game with physics items that allows you to light matches, bombs and those bombs explode the terrain in order to dig.

Steps to Reproduce Bug

Simply using Erase Tile Range Whatsoever

Operating System and Service Pack

____ Your operating system and service pack ____

Windows 7 SP 1

Construct 2 Version ID

____ Exact version ID of Construct 2 you're using ____

Release 244 (32-bit)

What you want to do is make a global variable called GameScale (or whatever you want) and on the mousewheel up or mousewheel down condition dictated events that you create remember to make a system>compare two values gamescale > or < than so you can limit the zoom on these mousewheel events. Okay, now do a System> Every Tick event and then a System>Set Layer Scale set your layer to lerp(Layerscale(0), GameScale, 0.03) for layer 0 and if your more than one layer than system>set layer scale> to layerscale 0 for all other layers.

Tada a smooth camera!

My source for this information is the examples that come with Construct 2: RTS / Driving Game Template.

If I am correct It exists because anything that is using delta time to correct itself is skipping over showing you certain frames to show you the correct frame as if your computer was keeping up. The measurement is totally disregarding the performance of your computer to keep the game to a consistent speed. I imagine if old NES games like Castlevania were to use delta time than instead of slowing down you would have been playing nintendo at 2-5fps which would have made it much harder to dodge say an unexpected fireball.

As far as converting the numbers, I know exactly what you are talking about. 400px per seconds never turns out to be 400 * dt for me I myself have had to make totally different wild estimates on numbers when using delta time, but I eventually find the right one.

Thanks for your reply newt! I think most of the confusion here is me not understanding how multiplayer works in general probably along with misreading something out there that I can't find again. This is the best utility that I have found out there and I am just clearing up my last bit of concerns before I launch something that requires a lot of time investment. Your feedback is very helpful and makes me more confident in getting further involved with this development system.

Hi, I have a computer company that is recently getting into developing games and I originally read when I was getting information about Construct 2 that I could make multiplayer and LAN games and even found something about direction IP connection somewhere. I am aware of how to make a multiplayer game in construct but before I begin a project I have some concerns. My question is that I recently found that you need to BUY and download some scirra matchmaking server for LAN games? So what is the deal I know it says one license and all my clients aren't going to buy scirra servers to play offline, no internet, lan games just between themselves on a local router? As for multiplayer It doesn't seem that I can make direct connection for multiplayer where they type in IP address instead absolutely everything multiplayer is depending on either the scirra server or my downloading the server If what I read is correct.

So Construct 2 can only make offline or non dependent LAN games for a person who wants to purchase the matchmaking server?

Also anyone playing a multiplayer game that I sell will be connecting through my "account" on the matchmaking server correct?

What are the limitations of this and would I be able to sell a game that people could just play with their friends and wouldn't have to connect to some big MMO version of a world just to play multiplayer? Am I correct in thinking the only way for someone to play just with their friends would be to make a multiplayer lobby for my game where people can find each other and play alone or is that not even possible?

I am concerned that If I launch a big product and multiplayer suddenly goes down one day that it will have a negative impact on the game and the expectation of my future games from potential customers.

Glad you got it to work! Okay, I understand now what is going on. When you are acting on behalf of a AI unit you need to remember to use System - Wait constantly because you are putting on an automated show just do it in between decisions, attacks, movement all of them so you get an effect like your watching something happen. Also put the "Scroll-to" behavior on all your AI and when it is that unit's turn flip behavior enabled on so your camera will leap around to the current computer unit acting. Tell me if you have any more questions.

Saving a whole Array to local storage is as easy as:

Action: Local Storage - Set Item

Expression;

Key: "Name"

Value: Array.AsJSON

tada! then coming back out after you Get Item "Name" with LocalStorage It goes like this:

Condition: On Item "Name" Get

Action: Array - Load From JSON String LocalStorage.ItemValue

You need to have an array that keeps track of all the units on a team 1 for players and 1 for monsters. for instance x 16 and y 8 z 1 16 slots 8 player vs 8 monster with each 8 variables UID,DoneTurn/TimeUnits,Health,HealthMax,Mana ect ect You should be looping through all of the active teams men to look for DoneTurn variable to see who has a turn still and giving them control at that point. It shouldn't be team changed be until your loop of Player.At(loopindex,2) (2 was DoneTurn in my example of the Y dimension) was COMPLETELY ran out without a single person showing a DoneTurn switch not thrown yet Then you throw all the Doneturn's back to 0 and switch teams.

Condition: Every Tick

Action: Paddle(Sprite) Then Set Y =

Expression: Ball.Y

Your program is doing a lot of things every tick so don't be too scared to use it. I did the same thing because it sounds like it would be a costly condition to use, but just think about the things you use this method for because often there is a way around it. For instance a Life Bar could checked 60 times a second or you could just change it when the player is damaged. Other things like the player facing the mouse cursor won't be able to avoid being looked at every tick.
