G'day all, spouse I should introduce myself.

I got. Personal licence for C2 about 6 months ago and quicker than I thought made my first game which was posted in that arcade some time ago.

My work recently decided to make me redundant, which will take effect in about 6 months, so I've decided to get a bit more involved in C2 than I have been lately,, to see if with some luck I might be-able to amongst other ideas I have...

Make some coin making a few games.

I live in Australia, am an old bugger but I'm pretty got at graphics.

So hi to everyone, please take it easy on me when I ask stupid questions.....I do search a lot before asking them

Cheers

Thankyou very much Martiny, for both explanations.

search your hard drive .xml & .xml5 files, look for your project file name,

you may get lucky.

mmm seems I don't have permissions to post links lol...

rather silly considering I have a license and I have posted a game in the arcade previously. I understand that more info is needed, unfortunately if I cant post the capx file no-one will be able to help me.

C-7....yes , could you give me a hint on disabling standard controls, I've looked but cannot find how to do that bit.

cheers

maybe this will help

having troubles uploading file just be a minute

Hi all :) Im new so please forgive my ignorance.

Ive uploaded my game :)

arcade link

thanks SCIRRA for the software, thanks people on forum who answered my questions.)

The game loads fine now, but I notice when I play it on a "new" device I need to refresh the screen to get it to run properly. Is this normal, or should I be using a pre-loader or similar for the game ?

Once Ive refreshed the screen the game runs as it should.

Thanks again,

thank you very much,

It was doing my head in so much I dropped the idea of boxes and

came up with another idea :)

but....I can now add this into later levels so your solution is great !

nice work.

fun game

<img src="http://eventorbot.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/overlap-example1.png" border="0">

I have 2 layers :

layer 1 : background image and sprites with bullet effect (the targets)

layer 2 : the boxes (stationary on top layer)

current target behaviors:

on touch the targets "destroy" "add 1 to score" and "subtract 1 from ammo"

this is working.

What Im trying to do next, is use the boxes as a mask when the targets are behind them, to cancel the touch effect on the targets..

if the box is touched the target behind the box it is not destroyed, Ive been trying to find a solution but cannot find one or work it out.

any help appreciated.

Cheers
