Ah OK I thought they might be because my obstacles that can be grabbed and thrown were going to the right layer. But that clarifies things, thanks!
I was trying to sync all my NPCs and in the peer version of the game their shadows were appearing but they weren't. After some testing, I found the NPC family is being synced to the very bottom layer instead of the layer they are on in the host's game effectively making them invisible because a tilemap covers them up. What am I doing wrong here?
Oh, dang. I thought maybe it could be done because it allows you to get the user's personal folder which has their user name but it has /users/#name#/ as part of the string so I can't use this.
Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.
What I did was made each input button add to a variable constantly as it's being pressed and test the variables instead of the control button presses. Like 0 = not pressed, 1 = just pressed, > 1 = holding the button down.
Simple question, hopefully simple solution. How do i retrieve the name of the current Windows user logged in to the computer?
My game is 3943 events and that's just the engine so far and a couple of enemies and other things. I imagine mine's gonna be in the five or (most likely) six digits when it's done although our NPC scripts are stored in external files.
While that's true, actually the issue I'm having is the more a webgl effect covers the screen the worse my performance gets on this version of Node Webkit, didn't have this problem before.
Thanks. One thing I noticed that's really screwing up performance is webgl effects for sure.
Oh there are? I tried searching for them but only found one written a month ago and didn't want to post on an old thread that had died. Well I guess it's good to know it's not just me.
Well I found a boon to my game's performance by disabling force own texture in places it was enabled and not needed and using render cells but the frame rate still is kinda choppy.
Don't know why force own texture was enabled so much.
lawl I was saying the other day how C2 updates are like an addiction for me with how they come out like every 5 to 6 days and I was expecting my fix soon, which as expected, 5 to 6 days after the last update the next one came.
Ever since I upgraded to the November 25th release, NW has been performing horribly. Like on my title screen I'm only getting roughly 30FPS when I was getting 60 prior. Now I see this as a blessing in disguise because it means I can optimize my game more than I could without the issue but now it's just getting annoying.
