salam (peace)...

I didn't yet started thinking on how to make RPG with Construct2 but I'm interested (I have RPG idea but the story isn't complete and it needs a team & I'm SOLO worker)

hmmm... about this :

The only way atm I've found of recognizing them since both are used on both sides P1 and P2 is by calling them by their UID's. If anyone knows a better method for that(yes I know could probably go with a separate sprite for every action and then call on just that sprite, but there could be a method with C2 I'm not thinking of).

I don't think making P1 & P2 on the same sprite a good idea ,have you tried or thought of families?

you still have to use UID to target them though..

OR NOT-

I once made a game (a test game actually) that creates and destroy the same sprite over & over again, since getting it's UID in real time is pain I use Instance Variable to get it. yeah it's the same way UID works but you can target more than one Instance if you made them with the same variable value.

the ideas come naturally just read/watch/play/analyze anything you can so your brain will get more ideas to create new ideas from, you don't have to think yourself to death for a new one.

and don't handwave ideas you think are not good, keep them in mind because a lot of good games came from stupid ideas.

I'm not sure if this will help you but try changing the browser & changing the font of the "text object", when I first tried Arabic language with the Text Object it didn't work but when changed the font it worked (and that made my options of fonts limited too)...

this might be what happened to you...

I hope that helped,

the solution of — is good but you might need to make an "array" not just a "variable", depending on how you made the layout/store.

also if you want Save/Load to Load you to the beginning of the game, you have to use "Webstorage" instead of Construct2's Save/Load... using it is a lot harder (even to test/debug) but I recommend to learn it especially if you want to make a big game.

Thanks rexrainbow for the Plugin.. I hope it compatible with CoconJS (from the looks of it, it'll likely work).

is there a way to support "RTL (languages)" text with this plugin?

hmmm....

If you want "Dots" to always be there (you create them in the editor and never destroy them in Runtime)... you can make instance variable in them (let's call it DotID) and number them from down to top.

if the third Dot (DotID=3) overlaps a "wall" then change Visibility or Opacity of all Dots with (DotID >= 3) to make them invisible. if no "Dot" overlaps "Wall" make all Dots Visible.

I hope this helps

Thank you very much for the replys...

for the Tag plugin I might use it in the next version of my "Visual Novel" Engine:

https://www.scirra.com/forum/my-visual-novel-engine_t99985

for now I'm now working on a game.. I found a way to make it without RTL (only works with that design).

Good!!

Easy to Learn and Good choose for mobile !! Just add more levels and do some surprises (something the player wouldn't think of)

I'm using Construct2 for a while but didn't go to forums 'til recently... so salam (hi) everyone

Visual Novel Engine:

I know there's a lot of Visual Novel Engines out there, but ever thought of making a Visual Novel with Construct 2 and didn't know where to start?

This engine is made for that, when making my VN game I got the Idea of turning it to VN engine before continuing it. then decided to make it OpenSource.

Features:

• good start to learn how VN works.
• easy to learn, To Edit and to Improve (but lacks good commenting).
• you can make good VN even in the free version of Construct2 (although 60 events already used).
• Opensource (I want others to Improve it for all)

Feedback wanted on:

• Is there parts that can be improved?
• how good the licence I wrote?
• overall rating # of 10.

(you might need Construct2 r163 or more to open it).

salam (hi all)...

I'm using Construct2 for a while but I'm new on the forum, so pleased to meet you!!

I have few questions about text in Construct?

Ready? ok...

1) When using "text object" is there a way to make text direction from Right to left?

it's not the same as "Right" align.. it's only used for RTL languages like Arabic... the html code of it is:

<K dir="rtl">this is right to left text!</k>

2) I want to change colors of only few words in the text, is there a Plugin that offers That?

I imagine it like maybe some "keyword" that changes the color of the rest of text like "/c[#]" to predefined color # (properties : define them in the editor).

ex.

"This is Normal Color 0 text /C[1]This text with Color 1"

shows:

This is Normal Color 0 text This text with Color 1

waiting for your help... and thanks in advance
