Thanks for the reply but this does NOT work for me. I already tried it, and just tried it again just to double check :(

the script does not have any errors, it works on one database, after all.

i worked around the problem by just using the same database with different tables. not my preferred option but it works.

thank you for your time :)

I used that file from the latest zip (php7) and it does not work. Apparently I am not the only one having this problem as the latest comment on that also seems to be the same issue. I can read the table just fine, but uploading doesn't work. It did work with the previous game using mysql 5.5 so I am pretty sure it is something with the database. But I can't figure out what...

hi,

so i created online highscores a while back for a game using this tutorial:

construct.net/en/tutorials/creating-own-leaderboard-1032/page-3

everything works perfectly fine.

so recently i wanted to do another game with online highscores.

so i copypaste the php from earlier and changed the required values. test it - doesn't work. now i am stumped.

PLEASE READ:

I created a new database, this time it uses mysq l5.7 instad of 5.5 - cant change that, server-side thing

i changed all the values correctly. no error on that end

the new database is an exact copy of the old one for testing

i used the new php to upload scores to the old one to see if it works. it does. so neither the game code nor the PHP is not at fault here

i can read the tables just fine, the scores are displayed as they should. the problem is the upload part. i made sure to get all the values and php right - as said, if i use the new code to upload to the old scores it works fine.

so here's my problem: did the syntax change a lot from sql5.5 to 5.7? if so, how do i need to reflect the changes in my code?

as said the old game, where everything works fine, used a 5.5 version, the new one 5.7 and that is the only difference between the two. it either is that or something so obvious I can't help but miss it.

any ideas?

just olsved it, thanks.

it works with project files folder but you have to import all files you want to open into the capx as once you compile it to an exe the files are locked and you cant just copypaste the files to where the index.html used to be. so yeah, thanks^^

I already did, didn't work, at least not with NW.js preview mode. perhaps i need to publish it first?

I feel like I already asked this but I can't find my topic so here I go again...

I am trying to make a launcher in C2 and use NW.js to run external applications.

That works well. Now I want to add a relative path because isntall directoris. Basically I want to tell the launcher the app you are looking for is in the same folder as the launcher.

Any advice?^^

Nevermind, i solved it with DISTANCE

thanks, tho^^

hi,

i am trying to do a thing where the player has a grappling hook he can move up and down on.

so all of that works. now i want to implement the rope so that it looks nice.

i used to have this code in a game where a spider climbs up and down its own web and the string of silk would change height depending on the spider location but i dont have the plugin required to open the project anymore, which annoys me that we cant open it without plugins but okay, whatever.

either way, can somebody tell me how to do that again? basically i want one end of the tiled background to be pinned to the object the grappling hook has grappled to and the other end pinned to the player and when the player moves up and down the height would change^^

you sir, are a saint!

thank you kindly, this is more than i could have hoped for :)

many, many thanks!
