You can't scale to 0, because at 0 it would get infinitely small. Below 0 it would probably turn around the screen axis, but let's just assume, that the values cut off at 0, so that won't happen either.

think of the require | on and off like:

if (condition) { ... }

the part before the dots is the on, the part after the dots is the off. One could probably make the syntax easier, and granted - the evaluation of conditions is very poorly done in the engine - this would definitely be something, that would need some more work. Like also including else, and letting the user write more evaluations than only statx >= valuey.

The capability to go to another layout can be easily added:

1) add the function name of your choice for it to the first event

2) write the function like in the picture

3) in the script you then can use "layout | layoutname" and it will work - just make sure that your minigame layout goes back to the game layout some time ^^.

It's not hard to do swapping yourself.

Save the first of two values to a local variable (or dictionary, if you can't be sure about the type). Write the second value to the first position. Write the contents of the local variable to the second position.

Not sure how exactly you wanna shift. Are we talking about about a one dimensional array or do you want to shift a 2- oder 3dimensional array? One dimensional should be easy with pop etc (though it might not be memory efficient with large arrays).

If it's something you need regularly or often, you could make yourself a template maybe.

mindfaQ Thanks a lot. Great engine. Are you still sane after making this?^^

I tried to make 3 choices, but the third choice always brought me to the result of the 2nd choice. Is it designed to have 2 choices only? Thanks^^

Sure, why should I go insane?

Hmm, for me it works, maybe the syntax is a bit weird/convoluted. It could probably be changed into a simpler syntax.

Example try exchanging the script in the vn with this and give it a try; the choice at the start should lead you to three different scenes:

character | Carl | c | 0 | 10 | 60 | Arial
character | Steve | s | 0 | 60 | 10 | Arial
character | System | none | 255 | 255 | 255 | DejaVu Sans

set | all | 0
music | on | main_music
background | main_screen
  text | none | Where do you want to go?/nPlease make a choice :).
  choice | scene1 | 1 | I want to go to scene 1. | xmid | 200
  choice | scene2 | 1 | I want to go to scene 2. OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH | xmid | 250
  choice | scene3 | 1 | I want to go to scene 3! | xmid | 300
    require | on | scene1 | 1
      goto | scene1
    require | off
    require | on | scene2 | 1

It's regex, there are many pages that list the basics

One way would be going through the array after import with the csv plugin and then convert all numbers to their appropriate type (int, float). After that save the array as json.

Like this.

If you only want to allow each column to contain one type, you have to do type checking for the whole column up front and then convert everything to the type. Though probably that's not necessary.

Use layers instead.

Hmm, I really like the CAVE-shmups for their soundtracks. Crimzon Clover is good. Touhou Perfect Cherry Blossom had interesting patterns. I loved the customization possibilities in Tyrian.

Hello, that's weird. I've now tested it in r210 (downloaded the capx from the latest link, to make sure), and all is working for me in Opera (which is based on Chrome's engine), NW.js and Firefox. Did you change anything (events, ...), yet?

1) Dota 2 (best gameplay of all games out there by a huge margin for me)

2) Warcraft 3 (infinite replayability because of custom games, has the best tower defenses)

3) Unreal Tournament (the soundtrack and some simple, quick action always keep me entertained)

4) Portal 2 (best jokes, some nice puzzles)

5) Diablo 3 (too grindy, but is okay for some nice slaying through hordes of monsters with character that feel relatively distinct)

6) Diablo 2 (too grindy, but invested a lot of hours into it in the past)

7) The Walking Dead (I really liked how Lee and Clementine interact and grow together in Season I)

8) Mirror's Edge (only jump'n'run (plattformer) I enjoy playing, cool style and soundtrack)

9) Runaway - A Twist of Fate (one of my favourite adventures together with some wadjet eye games)

10) Super Street Fighter IV / V (the fighting game of my choice)

Top 1 is very easy to decide, then the two other in top 3 are kind of still easy to choose for me personally... after that it get's super hard.

Still Dota 2 and now thrilled for the The International 5 Main Event that's starting tomorrow (~ 18 mio. USD total prize money, so the tension is high). Go Secret, Empire, VP, Na'vi, C9.

something like this works

I'm not sure what some of your events mean to achieve.

For example on "score" set -> set item "score" to score... makes no sense. The value is already getting set by the set item action, and "on item set" just marks the point of time, when it's done - like running some actions after you've made sure that values have been passed to local storage.

On item score exists - set "score" to score? Why?

The current workflow seems to be as follows:

at start of layout -> (no matter what) -> localstorage "score" is set to the score global variable (which probably still is 0)

on button clicked -> local storage "highscore" always gets overwritten by current highscore (so it will become 0)

then score is higher than highscore, if the sprite was touched at least once, highscore becomes score and then you display the score, or if score is 0, you display 0.

So all you do on button click is display the score in your text.

Normally you would load the highscore at start, and if it's missing create it with the value 0.

Then on button click you would get the highscore. Then on item "highscore" get, you compare the itemvalue to score. If score is bigger, set a new highscore. If score is smaller than highscore, leave highscore untouched.
