  • Ive been making a game for a while now, and I just updated to the new stable release. All of a sudden Im getting about 50% of the frame rate I had (60fps down to 30 fps) Nothing else changed. I haven't added any new actions or events. And ideas on what could be happening?

    Thanks

  • Anyone have any experience using clay.io with windows phone?

  • Hi,

        I'm making a game that I plan on releasing for Android, Windows Phone, iOS (iPad and iPhone), and Windows 8. Id love to have a leader board that includes all of the scores from all operation systems and devices. Can Clay.io do this? And is it the right chose for mobile leaderboards? I've been messing around with it and want to have a decent idea before committing to implementing it into my game. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Id love to hear your experiences with Clay.io, or other methods as well.

    Thanks,

    Adam

  • I think I've got it but I don't have a way to test it. Basically it's just a "for" that goes from 0 to gamepad.count. You can set which button is being pressed inside of it.

    I have no idea if the pin at the Start of Layout is working also.

    edit: Whoops, I forgot to set the angles to gamepad(loopindex,0).

    And I forgot to mention, whenever using a for you can use "loopindex" to use it on expressions.

    Hey man, thanks! I can confirm that it works with up to 3 controllers by adding a 3rd tank. Great job!

  • philx I tried the families too. It seems like something so simple to pull off, but there just doesn't seem to be a way. Im sure there is something. I work on about 10 projects at a given time, as soon as I return to it Ill let you know of any progress I make.

  • read the manual, it explains how to pick gamepads by index.

    always read the manual first

    Sargas You obviously misunderstand the issue. I have read the manual several times, it does not explain a way to do what I ask. So in turn, I ask you to READ THE QUESTION before jumping to conclusions.

    Thanks

  • philx I have not yet found a way to do it. And either way works, I just dont want to repeat the whole list of commands for 4 controllers, when it seems like it should be simple to call on certain sprites with certain controllers, without having to set up code for 4 different controllers.

  • Nvm, I cant believe i missed that.. Feel free to delete this haha.

  • Is there anyway to pull the screen size from the device? Say I want the window to automatically change to the screen size of the device on startup. I know I can change it manually, but I didnt know if there is a way to pull the info for the device.

  • Savvy001 I cant open the tutorial,, its telling me I need a text plugin??

  • philx Sorry, its a full game project. Im not really comfortable sharing it. No offense. :)

  • The Controller Id just sends a string listing make and model, not an actual number. Does anyone know how to get the number?
