Somehow I couldn't load your capx. Can you try that again, but change "https://" to "abcde://" so the forums won't parse that as a link and shrink it?

I have a feeling that this is related to https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/67/del ... ence#h2a12 See Minimum framerate section?

[quote:34uxwuj4]At very low framerates, dt can become very large. For example, at 5 FPS, dt is 0.2. An object moving at 500 pixels per second is therefore moving 100 pixels per tick. This can cause it to "teleport" through walls or miss collisions with other objects.

Games are usually unplayable at such low framerates, but it is even worse if they become unstable like that. To help the game stay reliable even at very low framerates, Construct 2 does not let dt get larger than 1/30 (about 0.033). In other words, below 30 FPS, dt stays at 0.033. This does also mean below 30 FPS the game starts going in to a slow-motion effect (described earlier as one of the issues of framerate dependent games), however this is usually a better result than the "teleporting objects" problem.

If you want to set a different limit to 1/30, you can use the system action Set minimum framerate.

For your case, I believe that the game runs fast enough, but since you mentioned the enemy move faster, I have a feeling that they might be moving so fast that they just "teleport" through the walls. Could you see whether this is indeed the case?

For Screen Capture, you can use Snipping Tool. Windows should come with it. But I believe video capturing might be needed more in this case?

If you are asking this question, you may wish to follow all the basic tutorials of C2 first, starting from https://www.scirra.com/tutorials/37/beg ... onstruct-2

Can you provide some images for what are you trying to accomplish? This is so we can be sure that we understand your query correctly.

What do you mean by soundvisual?

For image of a button, are you using the button plugin? If so, see https://www.scirra.com/manual/111/button for possibility of using CSS on the button. However, you can also use Sprite to show the image of a button instead and have "click"/"touch" event on the Sprite to make the Sprite a "button" too.

It's not even entering the loop?

Have you include the right event sheet into the layout you are testing on and are you referring to the right enemy sprites?

[quote:3b340lin]My question is are all the arrays loaded when I get to this layout (thus having a load effect when getting to the UI layout)? If they are, would it be beneficial to move these arrays to the specific layout that they're to be loaded for? Or are they loaded so quickly that there's no performance hit?

If my understanding is correct, the array object should be loaded when you arrived to the layout it is on. This implies that it should be beneficial to move the arrays to the specific layout they are intended for.

But regarding "whether they are loaded so quickly that there's no performance hit", this is actually a platform question and you must test on all platforms you wanna publish on. Obviously, desktops should be able to crunch through without any framerate drop, but for low-end mobile phone, this might not be the case. So which platforms are you publishing to need to be tested.

Particles can only increase the "object count". Having more objects does not mean the visual will be more beautiful.

This is more about art design. I suggest you take a look at some sprites of Metal Slug's explosion and its visual effects, and study from them instead.

However, if you are more of a programmer than an artist, you can still try the glow effects, etc. (ex. try put glow effect on a layer where all particles will be spawned to have glowing particles)

But again, if you wanna make things more beautiful, this is more about the art, and not really related to capx or C2 tutorial here. Go study art instead.

Local Storage should be under Data & Storage section under the "insert a new object" dialogue when you double left-click.

If it is not there, could you see in C2's plugin directory whether there is a folder for LocalStorage? It should be Construct 2\exporters\html5\plugins if my memory is correct.

Also, does a simple uninstall/reinstall solve the problem?

[quote:1hroannr] Our game stopped working properly on Linux and Mac (think Mac is broken for all with NW.js right now?) by the time it was 300MB in size ( http://store.steampowered.com/app/334190/ ), even though most of the size was music (full 8bit and 16bit soundtrack).

Jayjay Similar experience. From my games, I see Windows still got the best performance and input response. Some folks who used Ubuntu did report that the game could be run but it's not as smooth as Windows. Mac... has lots of troubles, and it just couldn't run bigger and more complicated C2 games well.

[quote:1hroannr]I had tried using C2 probably 5 times in the past and each time I was put off by how it didn't have all the little conveniences that CC had.

I also felt that C2 had this stigma of being a weak engine, but hopefully with what I've learned from working with CC extensively and all the fixes and new conveniences that C2 brings I can make the game I had originally set out to.

Fervir Let's wait for C3. Hopefully, all the known tough issues are addressed and taken care of, and hopefully we could migrate our project without any issue to C3.

C2 is a very solid capable engine, but there are still some kinks that need to be iron out.

glerikud mentioned it above already that I made this: http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/660664 (Please use Chrome on Windows for best performance, and make sure to set your browser to allow for bigger storage for save game)

I see some players completed the game 100% and they took 12-15 hours. Here is an example of the 100% final result screen from one of my players: http://twinblazar.deviantart.com/art/Co ... -550116892

While my game is not as epic as something along the line of what you have mentioned:

[quote:2lfo83pb]150 unique enemies

20 boss monsters to fight

30+ tilesets and probably 500 unique rooms to explore

200+ unique items that have different functions that do not simply increase a stat by +2.

A puzzle system with probably about 50 unique elements that can be mixed around and connected to each other.

C2 can be used to do everything you have mentioned here, if you know what you are doing.

glerikud, thank you!

Also, thank you for mentioning my game on
