  • Use the line of sight behavior and set it to have custom collision detection and make the pit in the floor one of the objects it can't "see" through.

  • When I use the variable width spritefont trick where you use an array and JSON data with the character widths stored in the string, and align the text to the right, the last character ends up getting cut off a bit on the right side. I've tried to fix this by putting a space at the end of every string that is right aligned but in runtime the space is removed and the character is still cut off on the right side. Is there any way to fix this?

  • If you want a more automated way than Takniko wrote, in the moving event just put something like set move speed to 1 + globalscore * 0.5 or whatever you want it to iterate by. You can even put ^ to make it curve in a parabola fashion depending on what you put after the ^

  • Puchisoft Dispatcher is a pretty good updater maker which I use currently but it doesn't work with Linux or iOS. I guess until I find an alternate solution I'll make it run if the person is using Windows or send them to a download page if they're using Linux or iOS.

    Which begs the question, how do I check which OS the person is running?

    I'm glad to see this isn't just happening to me! I had to do away with pin and do it manually due to the delay it has.

  • From what I understand you just put com.insertcompanynamehere.insertgamenamehere without spaces.

  • You should do what I do now. Make a global variable for each key your game uses and when the appropriate key is down for each variable constantly add 1 to it until the button is released then put the variable back to 0. Then all you do is if you want to test if a key was only pressed and not held down, you check if the variable = 1. Anything greater than 0 and 1 is holding down the button.

  • I guess you could make advanced use of the left() and right() expressions calculated depending on the mouse position in your editor and then load it accordingly. But I'd say the best approach would be to use tilemaps and tiled.

  • Also one tip you'll want to know is to make a new layout with a global layer containing your HUD so that way you won't forget where it is located to edit it and you have it globally made.

  • I just want to make an auto updater for my game in C2 if it can be done.

    Edit: It needs to be a system that works in Node-Webkit because that's primarily what we're going to release our game on.

  • I don't know where to begin with this one. I want to have the game check if files stored online are the same as ones in the user's folder and to replace the out of date ones respectively with the online versions.

  • Thanks Ashley! I tried and it tells me access is denied so I'm doing tech support in a little bit to see what the deal is with that but I take it your method works because it didn't say command was not found. I will post an additional reply if I need further assistance.
