I'm making a game similar to Star Treks Velocity.

To win you need 5 hits.

When your ammo gets to 0 you’ve lost.

If you hit a power up you get 3 more shots (ammo)

Here’s the problem, if on the last shot you win, you get both messages: Win/Lost.

A similar thing happens if on the last shot you hit the power up. It tells you that you’ve lost, but you now have 3 more shots.

I know there has to be a simple answer, but I’m missing it.

If you need a visual: iticka.com/velocity

It's made for mobile. Hit only the Red Circles and the Blue power ups. Blue makes you lose a hit.

PS also should have known you'd have 2 amazing demos for it.

Seriously Dude, whenever you're ready, I'll buy the domain and build the site to index all your demos. Just give me a link to where I can download them. I'll set a goal of 10 per day. Just let me know when you're ready. You are amazing!

IT WORKED!!

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

I have been trying to adapt that all day.

Thank you!

I figured it out - I can't believe it.

Basically I meant, could I have both thumbs on the screen at the same time move the image in different directions - and apparently you can! YAY!

Thanks for the link to the social - that's been bugging me for weeks.

Thanks again.

All the best tutorials are for C2, but they don't always translate into C3.

I followed this tutorial.

construct.net/en/tutorials/touch-stick-controllers-241

The problem is, if you follow the steps in the tutorial it will work on the PC, but not on mobile. I need it to work on mobile only.

So I downloaded the demo - That will work on the Mobile, but it can't be programmed the same way using C3. The way C2 and C3 use functions must be different and I can't translate (yet)

First, I tried to implement the idea into my project, but that didn't work, so I attempted to rebuild that demo line for line to learn/understand better how to make the touch controller, but C3 won't accept the word 'Function' in the code and I'm not exactly clear on what is supposed to go in that spot. (see image)

The word Function is in about a half dozen different places and C3 won't let me put it in there.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you!

One more quick question, if you don't mind.

Is it possible to use 2 scrolls at the same time on a mobile screen? It seems to work, but then stops. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong or if it's taking a few seconds to confuse my phone enough to make it stop moving.

I'm using a scroll on the right to move the player right and left and a scroll on the left to move the player up and down. (I'm complicated)

Also, an off topic question. How did you get your FB/Twit links in your profile?

Thank you.

If you ever want to sent all your demos to me, I will be happy to organize them and upload them to the gDrive.

If a large index is required, I'll upload them to my server.

I build websites, I could make a demo display for each and a download link. I would be happy to index them all.

Think about it...

Thanks again.

Oh THANK YOU!!

I've been fighting with this for hours!

I have watched a ton videos and read so many tutorials - THANK YOU!

You wouldn't happen to have a list of these wonderful demos, would you?

I've seen several other things you've posted and they've helped me learn so much. Your demos are always better than the demos on the start page. You seem to have a demo for everything. Is there an index that I've missed?

Thanks again.

I followed the YouTube video.

It worked great for a horizontal slider, but I can't get it to work vertically.

It is supposed to stay within the sliderSide (which is set at 50% opacity)

It keeps going beyond the slider and not staying within the size of the slider.

There is a slider on either side. This slider is sliderSide and moveSide.

moveSide.Y+defaultValue*(sliderSide.Height/((maxValue-minValue)/step))

Note, ignore the controller under the slider, that will go as soon as I get this slider working.
