mmm yeah it seems quite weird in fact, have you tested this before r166, did it happened with r165??

Ldk Sorry i can't seem to solve this issue. Neither for the AI part. Been messing around the codes but seemed to be stuck.

Looks like it's easier to make a shooter game than a melee fighting game thou.

why are you using pathfiding instead of platform behaviour??

ASHLEY said that he found what could be wrong... and that hes going to fix it in the next beta

it was really frustrating when i notice it, i thought it was an error in my code... thankfully not, i was scared XD

OK, I think another thing that might have changed is the order triggers fire in event includes. Previously it triggered on includes first then the main sheet, but I accidentally changed it to main sheet first then includes. This would probably have unpredictable effects on existing projects. I'll fix that for the next beta and hopefully everything will be back to normal.

THANKS A LOT!! ASHLEY =) as always very efficient and patien with your costumer, im glad i choose C2 thanks!!!

This thread contains no .capx files so is basically no help to us for fixing any problem there might be.

Ashley

The only thing I can think of is r166 might change the way event sheet includes placed in disabled event groups work. Is everyone affected using includes in groups and sometimes disabling the group?

i tried to replicate my problem but my project is 1500 events long and since i dont really know whats not working (becuase a lot is not working) i cant replicate it in the free version and i donwgraded my steam personal version becuase if you guys pass to non beta version, i cant go back anymore to 163 (where the problem does not happen)

i tried to replicate it but it seems to only happen with more complex event sheets.

i can provide you with my .capx but understand that it cant be released publicly since it has art already... so i will trust it only to you... just tell me the way to send it to you...

i will mark my biggest problem with a bookmark so you can find it easily

Lunatrap I'm having the exact opposite issue now. Event sheets aren't triggering at all at the start of a layout. I've gone back to 165 and everything is fine. But with r166, my character was spawning in the middle of the air despite the code being there for him to spawn in a very specific area. And the camera code was being completely ignored until seconds after the preview booted up.

Hopefully the events issue gets resolved quickly.

thanks a lot for the info im glad that im not the only one, it seems that whatever is broken its creating all kinds of effects , yes i too hope this gets fixed.

in case that a .capx is needed i will give it to ashley since the game is alreadyy quite advance and it already has some art, therefore you can understand that i cant realease it plublicly

thanks for you repply

please ashley, i need support here... this is not a coding error i can confirm that everything was working well before, i have the Steam Personal version and now i cant go back to the r165 now i cant continue with my project anymore since oping out of betas it downloads r163 but my project wont open with r163, unless i use a version of my project 2 month old wich i used to confirm that in r163 was working well... and before the update i was using r165 and everything was running well, when C2 crashed , i closed C2, so then steam updated it to r166 when i ran C2 again and opened the project again nothing was working...

another test im going to do is to test my project in my BF's and my sister's laptops if the problem persist then hardware or drivers is not a factor...

(update) i tried downloading the free version of r165 and tested my most recent backup project (3hrs before my c2 was updated to r166) and with r165... everything is working perfect, so i can confirm that is not a coding error

My project is triggering events twice... for example i have a menu that opens when the key "esc" is hited, but now it triggers twice and it opens the menu, but it closes it immediately becuase it triggers twice, same goes for menus where you use the arrows to choose, i have a instance variable as selection so when i hit up arrow it adds +1 to such instace variable, so it functions as a selection number so i can move in the menus with the arrows by selecting the options, a alternative to using the mouse to click such option... when i hit up, it skips 1 option, so when i trigger to add+1 to the variable, its doing it twice adding +2... something with the new system of triggers is broken.... everything was working well before in the r165

another user is having problems as well here

Affected Browsers

• Chrome: (YES)
• Node Webkit: (YES)

Operating System and Service Pack

Windows 8 SP1

Construct 2 Version ID

Problem is present in:

r166

Not present in:

r165

r163

My project also is suffering for some reason the keyboard is registrering twice in the same tick and now my menus dont open... because when i hit escape to open the menu... it closes immediately becuase it triggering twice the same goes for menus where you use the arrows to choose... when i hit up, it skips 1 option... something with the new system of triggers is broken.... everything was working well before

(from the release notes)

Performance

Some further event engine optimisations, particularly aimed at making triggers faster to fire

something must be broken...

Well, I won't pretend that I understand the math neither

In your case, since you want a full circle divided into 12 frames the expression that works is the following: int(12*(1+Archer.a/360)+0.5)%12

Here is an example, I added some movement and arrow firing functionality just for fun. What interests you are the the 2 first events.

I hope that helps!

i really appreciate it

There is a much simpler (with fewer events) way to do this, although I don't know if it's less CPU intensive.

Unfortunately, I don't remember where I found this example, so I can't give credit to the original creator. I think what he or she manages with 2 events is simply brilliant!!!

Here is the example, almost as I had found it, I believe I'd striped it some point and click movement functionality and kept only the angle related math.

And here is my adaptation on a tower that uses the sprite's frame number (instead of animations) as a variable in order to change the visual result.

http://www.eli0s.com/Tests/AngleTower.capx

it looks very easy

can you tell me this string "int(32*(1+tower.a/180)+0.5)%33"

i tried to toy around with it... but math is not my strong side

i understand that you convert the angle variable "a" and change it to a integer to "dir" that matches your number of animations so you can call the animation just using "dir"

very impressive... im very good at understanding logic

but math just kills me

SO can you please tell me how would you chage that 32 that returns int(32*(1+tower.a/180)+0.5)%33 expression

to the 12 angles that i need?? instead of 32

and instead of 180º to 360º as you saw in my example... if you help me i will appreciate it and definitely will give you the credit in my game

thanks!!!
