I'll just *bump* this once, because I got no responses. I also want to link in some of the more experienced and active users on our forum to see if they have anything to say:

Just found blackhornets PlayFab tutorial. Thanks for that!!

So maybe this is the answer to my question? It's free and looks doable. I think it covers both player accounts and cloud saving. But perhaps Chandori's is easier for a beginner? IDK

So now the question is, Which service is better for my needs? Firebase or PlayFab? Again, i'm looking for ease of use and cheap. I'm not really concerned with having a whole suite of utilities.

Hi all,

I know this has been discussed before but I am still finding it hard to find a clear answer.

I would like the user to use their email to 'create an account' (either on Google or FB). Once this is done, all their data is saved on an array that is associated with that account and which is located on 'the cloud'. This array will be sporadically updated while the player is playing.

So now, I have been reading many of the old posts and I have found these two options:

1. constructfirebase.com/plans-pricing

2. constructcollection.com/construct-playfab-api

...

So my question is, which is the best choice for my purposes? Or, is there a better choice?

I know zero JS, but I feel comfortable copy/pasting code if that is needed, but would prefer to use the C3 native choices. I want to keep it as simple (and cheap) as possible.

Hi all,

I have a couple questions centered around the topic of hiring Construct developers:

1. What type of documentation does the developer usually require? Is there an industry standard?

2a. What are the normal contract types and how does pay work for each? (Ie. What if I just need a single part of a whole? What if the intended project takes way longer than expected? Etc..)

2b. What is a normal pay range for developers?

3. How does the employer protect their assets, ideas, etc. ?

4. How does the employer assure quality? (Ie. What if the employer is not happy with the results but the developer feels it is adequate? What if there are bugs later on down the line? Etc.)

Thanks all

This works for me. The only difference that I can see is you are trying to input the dimensions via the AJAX object, where as I create and then set them directly into to the Array object.

Your way looks cooler and more advanced, but my way ... works? Let me know if you can figure it out, because I use this process quite often and would love to know a shortcut!
