Looks cool, but to be honest, if you want a touchscreen gaming device then why not get one that's dedicated to gaming, like a Nintendo 3DS or a PS Vita.

The GamePad is cheap, but you can get a Nexus 7 for �30 more and then you've got a quad core Tegra-powered beast. In my opinion the physical buttons won't really fit in with the Android experience and I doubt many games are going to be supported.

I think Archos is trying to be a tad too clever there, like a kind of LG Optimus Vu type-thing. Innovation isn't always good, but it's kind of nice to see Archos doing something new.

Sorry for rant :)

Not sure if it's relevant, but here's a Google Translate:

Hello guys. I created a site with Italian forum, I need some new threads to populate the forum and maybe even help the site: maintenance, articles, blogs, etc.. For those interested please contact me in pm

Aah, I've figured it out for myself now. Thank you!

There are lots of ways of doing this...

Here's one

you can give your object an instance variable lets say cooloff

then add "cooloff <= 0" to your fire trigger meaning cooloff must be 0 or less to work

then when you shoot add a value depending how long you want to cooloff

>on mouse clicked      fire bullet

                      set cooloff to 20    (adjust this number to suit)

then the condition...

>cooloff > 0     subtract 1.0*dt from cooloff

sorry bit rushed, hope that helps...

Hey Pixel!

Thanks for your reply, but I'm a tad confused.... would you have cooloff reduce every tick?

Thank you,

Hello!

I am making a small game in Construct 2 and I am unsure how to stop users from repeatedly spamming the mouse button. I want there to be a two-second delay until the user can press the key again.

How would I do this?

Thank you,

Orange

I don't believe that there are, but I'm not sure. I doubt that there would be differences.

If you ask me, WebOS is a bit of a dead platform now.

Thanks everybody!

WebStorage works offline, works on all platforms, and is permanent. It is *not* saved in the browser cache; it's permanent and immune to the user clearing their cache. (I don't know why everyone assumes it saves to the cache!)

There's also good support for scirra.com/tutorials/526/how-to-make-savegames and the node-webkit plugin allows writing to disk when a desktop application.

Thanks! Problem, though; I can't find the WebStorage object anywhere. I am on Construct 2 Free Edition Release 119. I am looking to buy Standard.

P.S. With Standard, can I sell games that I create? Or is that only for Business releases?

Dave Hailwood, what about completely offline saving? does webstorage or the new save game system work for that?

Yeah, that was what I had in mind. Thanks for your suggestion though Dave. I might end up using that. Would that still work on Android, though?

Thanks!

Hello!

I want to buy Construct 2, but I first want to make sure that it is equipped with this feature.

Basically, lets say that my game has a 'Highscore' global variable and a 'Level' global variable. I want to save both of those variables so, even if the user quits my application and restarts their device (this will probably be either a NodeWebkit desktop application or an Android app), my variables will be remembered and reloaded when they reopen the application.

Is this possible, and if so, how? Please explain in a newb-friendly way.

Thanks!
