Hello!

I am trying to move or copy files through Nw.js's On file Dropped event but it just isn't working for some reason.

I can rename files, see the name of the dropped files, and write files, but something is stopping the move and copy actions from working.

Here's a screenshot:

I am running construct 2 as administrator, I tried exporting the project and running it as administrator and that did not work either.

There has to be something I'm missing here!

Thank you in advance for any help

Oh man! this is exactly what I needed thank you so much!

yeah, I eventually got it to work

I had to sacrifice some things when I decided to get switch to physics instead of platforming but it works

Hello! I'm trying to figure out a way to color specific words in a text object.

Like using events being able to turn "Hello world!" into something like "Hello world!"

I can't really wrap my head around a method that would work. I tried looking for specific words like "hello" with the find expression but I couldn't figure out how I would get that to work with colors.

Is there a way to do this without having to make my own text object from scratch?

thank you in advance!

Thank you all for your help. I went ahead and decided to drop using the Platformer behavior altogether and just switch to physics to get a smooth rotation!

Hello!

I'm trying to make a small platformer set in space where you fly from planet to planet.

The problem I'm having is that the planets are suppose to be smooth and circular. like planets! but with the collision polygons they feel sharp and not at all nice to walk on

Is there a way to use the platformer behavior and have smooth circular platforms?

Thank you!

Oh wow that works perfectly! I cant believe i didnt think of that

thanks so much!

Hello! I am trying to figure out how to make a car object smoothly rotate to the angle of the analog stick.

This is kind of hard to explain

The car is following the analog stick but when i switch direction is sharply just POPS into that direction instead of slowly rotating to that spot like I want it to

here's my code for the car right now

Hello! I'm trying to make a bubble shooter like game except instead of trying to match bubbles you have to knock things down.

I've already started to get things working but I cannot figure out how to get things to stay put or fall when they are or are not supported.

<img src="https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/60298955/ludumDareScreen.png" border="0" />

In the screenshot, I've highlighted certain blocks to make what I'm having trouble with more clear.

In the game you shoot a ball at these blocks. I want certain blocks to fall if they have no support!

The Yellow marked blocks would be stable because theyre touching the wall.

The green marked blocks would also be stable because theyre connected to a block that is touching the wall.

But the blue marked blocks would not be stable because they are not connected at all. So the blue ones would fall.

I've tried so many things, but I'm still pretty new to construct. This seems kind of simple. There just has to be something that I'm missing!

Thank you in advance for your help!

Ramones- Thanks that worked! I had trouble with it at first but then I realized I had the scrolling going up instead of down! But I got it all worked out!

TELLES0808- That sounds like it would work, but I only have the free version of construct so I dont think I can use families ):

Hello! I'm trying to make a vertical scrolling shooter but to get it to work I have to be able to get the window to be at the bottom instead of the top of the layout!

<img src="https://dl.dropbox.com/u/60298955/ConstructHelp1.png" border="0" />

See I need to have it at the bottom so my background, enemies, and everything else can scroll down.

I tried adding the scroll to behavior to my player but it seems to cancel out the scrolling that I have set up for the game.

I figured out that I could just build the game sideways and then use the system - rotate layout to turn it back the way I want it, but I think that would be really difficult to build!

I'm still pretty new to construct, and -very- new to the forum so hopefully I posted all this right, haha. Anyway! I hope you guys can help me!

Thanks in advance.
