I got it working somehow. The file I had saved I renamed a long time ago and recently it didn't like that I renamed it so it was just saving as "New Project" and that one is working just fine.

In step 1 I am double clicking the layout screen and adding a sprite. Just a box that I fill in with any random color. For the tests that I have conducted I have done blue, orange, and pink. I then close the editor window and the sprite that I created is added to the layout. Then from there I can change it's size. I can give it everything a normal sprite can get all the way to the event sheet. For sake of time and energy I haven't been giving it code because if it is having problems with just existing on the layout I don't want to have to go into the.xml for event sheets and find and delete the instance from there as well. From there if I save then close the program and try to open and load the previous save file it gives me the error that I linked above. I have just tried with the 134 version beta and it still hasn't worked.

Thank you for the quick response and I hope to hear back soon.

Would the Castle Crashers Game style be a flat plane?

Is this what it is supposed to look like so far?

If so what goes after the Player.X - PlayerFloor < JumpLimit

I have it set up where On Space pressed Player is Set CustomMovement Vertical to -400 and On Space released Player Stops CustomMovement. That is how I get the player to go up. With this I have no limit and don't know how to get a limit.

I am making a platformer that has similar control and movement to the game Castle Crashers. This is a 8 directional platformer with jumping. I have gotten jumping to go up. It's limiting the height the player can jump and making the player fall that has me stuck. To jump I have it when space is pressed the player is custom controlled up at a speed with some acceleration. I don't know how to make the player go down the same height that they "jumped" up.

I am trying to get Construct to do a 8 directional Platformer type movement. This is movement similar to Castle Crashers where there is X,Y, and Z movement and also jumping and gravity. It is a 2-d side scroller.I just can't get that programed into Construct. Any tips or tutorials I could get?
