I was searching on methods for masking, then i found things like collision mask and some color masking plugins... guess i didn't search the correct keywords. :P

but thanks all, its been a great help !! i have never used the blending mode effects in Construct2 before.. learn something new to play around with!

Hi Guys,

I've been searching around the forum for various masking possibility but has not yet come to find the right solution for what I want to do.

Basically, I would like to make a Globe UI element that is able to reflect a HP variable in my game, sorta like the HP globe in Diablo. Is there like a shape mask function that I can make a square sprite with a circle shape so I can just adjust the height of my square sprite to achieve the globe UI ?

Hope to know if this is already done somewhere or is it even possible in Construct 2 ?

I tried the capx file but it always seems to return the last of the values when I run the layout.

Is there something wrong with the code?

Thanks Excal,

I found this in the FAQs.. should have done it earlier.

This would be more likely I would like to do. Thanks

Sorry for the post.

Hi Guys,

I am thinking about how to do a probability of spawning different sprites.

I have a set of 6 different sprites to spawn. Currently I am using int(random(5)) to get a random spawn of the sprites.

What I would like to do is to make the spawning of these sprites based on a probability?

Example:

Sprite 1 - 25%

Sprite 2 - 18%

Sprite 3 - 25%

Sprite 4 - 12%

Sprite 5 - 15%

Sprite 6 - 5%

And also I will like to be able to adjust the probability based on the events that happens during runtime.

A note also, is that currently my sprites are all stored within 1 sprite object with each sprite as a frame in the animation.

Hope to get advise from the community! Thanks
