Some of you may have seen this already, but:

Got my first Android port running, using CocoonJS. Took little time and got me a fully-functional *.apk!

If you do not have either a personal, educational, or business license (https://www.scirra.com/store/construct-2) then you cannot export to anything other than Windows 8 Metro or Web.

If I get a personal license, will I get an Android option in my export options? Right now all I see are these:

Yes. And as blackhornet and I were directing you, you can also see what other features you get by comparing each individual license, to the free version: https://www.scirra.com/store/construct-2

Including no limits such as the 100 event limit in the free version.

Rhindon, yes, you must declare that folder public.

Ah, I see. Kyatric I guess I assumed a little much from the quick search I did. Forgot about links from public folders versus just hotlinking the image from a "share" link:

and

Rhindon Well now you know. Many websites do the same thing in order to prevent users from using them as their own personal image-storage, since bandwidth ain't free.

Rhindon Dropbox images cannot be hotlinked.

Yttermayn, I've used a similar approach, and done exactly what you said, using either variables or their own animation string to determine what is what, and therefore how it should behave. I can't advise you about families, because I've yet to have a use for them, but I can tell you that your approach should work just fine, from what I can see.

megatronx what if he tries saving the project as a whole project so everything is in one folder instead of the single capx, and opens the files from there?

That way, he can drag and drop files into a text editor, like Notepad, instead of bothering with extension stuff.

daehawk I have done a bit more since my last update. Just struggling at the moment for some direction for my battle system (what to use it for). It works, but right now it's more proof of concept than any sort of fleshed out system. :/

megatronx Ah, ok. So he does have the same version of Construct 2 installed on his computer as yours, then? Is he attempting to open the files from within Construct 2's project manager?

megatronx could your friend share a screenshot? I was having difficulties imaging what you're actually trying to accomplish.

Am I correct in that you saved a *.capx, sent it to your friend, and he is trying to open it? You did say it was one file you sent.
