  • In the case of the push ball, they were both supposed to stop. That allows the player to go in a different direction. The way it was, everything I tried got the player stuck in the wall and it would no longer move.

    However for the teleport now it means the player doesn't end up in the wall after coming out of the teleport.

    The goal is the player Not ending up in the wall ever.

  • This is working at the moment:

    Event:

    Player > is overlapping wall.

    Action:

    Player > set bullet bounce off solid TRUE.

    One would think that would be included in the solid behavior so solids wouldn't end up in other solids, but for now it's a work around. Fingers crossed it doesn't fail.

    "What else can it do?"

    Stop. It should stop. Like a person hitting a brick wall.

    How do I make the solid sprite stop when it hits another solid sprite - like in reality?

  • Ashley,

    Thank you for your reply.

    "So what is the engine supposed to do?"

    The engine should stop the player and not allow the player to move into the wall. When users, especially newbies, select the Solid option - we expect that Solid will make the sprite - Solid, like a tree or a brick wall.

    Solid should be Solid. Like in reality if I am running and I run into a brick wall I don't become part of the wall, I don't get stuck in the wall. I hit the wall and stop. That's what I'm looking for. How do I do that?

    Construct 3 needs to be fixed or an option or a plugin so solid means just that 'solid as a brick wall'.

    Solid should be solid 100% of the time with no exception - just like a tree in reality.

    I mean seriously, what purpose does getting stuck in a wall serve? I have a hard time believing that the C3 developers said "Lets add 'Stuck in the wall' to the solid behavior." lol (:

    Construct needs away for solid to always be solid no matter what. A solid that doesn't allow other sprites to get stuck in it.

    Ok, rant over.

    Does anyone know how to get the walls and the player to be solid like a brick wall so they never get stuck no matter what happens?

  • I was testing the teleport with the pacman demo: drive.google.com/file/d/1RaN1in2EEneba26MLunKdb2PJtRhKQb0/view

    The teleports are the purple blocks. Walls are pink. When the yellow player goes into the purple teleport if it's going up and there is a wall behind the next teleport the player gets stuck in the wall.

  • This isn't the teleportation, but with this one I was trying to make the push-ball bounce the player ball backwards.

    It bounces, but it usually bounces it right into a wall: drive.google.com/file/d/1UI7sZ38LOdQmOQ0BRu7L1h5zK06wmKbx/view

  • Hey Ghost wondering is fine as long as they keep wondering.

    So far I got it down to this: emailedee.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/removeWhat.png

    Let see what else I can cut. Fingers crossed.

  • I've been playing around with the pacman demo to try to figure out how to get a ghost to move around the board without using the Pathfind behavior.

    The player movement makes sense. But if you strip everything off of the ghost what is the bare minimum you need to just make just 1 non-animated ghost move on it's own? No killing, eating, being eaten, just to make one ghost move - nothing else?

    Is there a downloadable demo for just how those ghosts are supposed to move without doing anything else?

  • Anyone else notice that Construct can Almost do everything. It doesn't quite do it, it just almost does it.

    I have a player that teleport from one place to another. If the player enters the teleport going right and when it comes out of the teleport the exit is on the left and there is a wall to the right the player get stuck in the wall.

    The wall is solid, the player is solid, so why does the player get stuck in the wall?

    If I am running and I run into a tree I don't get stuck in the tree. I don't become part of the tree. The player shouldn't either.

    Offset is already setup and doesn't work for stopping the player from entering the wall when it exits the teleport.

    Unless there is nothing on any side of the teleport the player risks getting stuck in a wall when it comes out of the teleport.

    What will always stop a player from getting stuck in a wall - Always - 100% of the time?

    Are they working on fixing this? This shouldn't have to be something that is worked around. A player should never get stuck in a wall unless the developer designs it to do so.

  • I don't suppose there is an easy way to change the font for every text box?

  • OH!!

    That makes sense.

    Thank you!

  • I am making several different speech programs for autistic kids. Some of the words have to be different colors because them match words in different programs. Like 'I, me, my' must be blue. 'Did, have, do' must be purple.

    Here's the problem. When I line the text up and play it on the laptop, it looks great, but when I play it on a phone the text looks like crap.

    If I make the text look good on a phone, it looks like crap on the laptop.

    This program is going to be run from https, it needs to look good on both.

    How do I make the text stay where it is and not adjust?
