Layouts act as levels, a layout can contain any data you like. To go to the next level you might for example set a condition whereby when the goal is achieved you simply load another layout by name.

I think, iv'e only been using Construct a few days.

I'm sure a Pro will chime in and help you out further.

Hi,

Is it possible to copy events from one event sheet to another? Rather than having to type it all out again?

Cool, i am using the "platform" behaviour now and it's working, as in falling down and stopping when it hits another sprite, but i can't figure out how to make it bounce up a few times before coming to rest!

Any ideas?

Not sure i understand what you mean, it bounces forever never coming to a stop.

I just want the sprite to move down the screen, bounce and then stop.

Or fail that just move down and stop.

There must be something i'm missing..

Edit: Ok i managed to make the sprite fall down by adding the "platform" behaviour and i can make it stop by hitting another sprite, now, is there a way i can make it bounce up a few times before settiling down?

Brilliant! Thank you so much.. <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

How can i pin a sprite to another?

The goal: To have a wooden sign drop into frame with the games logo pinned to it.

I know i could do this in photoshop but i have some behaviours attached to my logo i want to retain.

Currently the logo sprite does not come down with the sign, it is not pinned to it.

This is how my event looks at present.

So it's not possible to have an item fall and then just stop or bounce off a solid it encounters and stop by using the "Bullet" behaviour?

Hi,

I'm getting this error message every time i test in the browser (Chrome)

Running version R161

I can click it away and the game tests just fine but just wondering what this means if anyone knows.

Hi,

What is the best practice to achieve the effect of sprites and other objects falling or dropping into the layout?

Would it be to give the object a bullet behaviour and set it's gravity level to a high value?

Or is there another prefered method?

Thanks, it's all sorted now.

Wow! I need sleep badly!

Thanks muchly.. <img src="smileys/smiley2.gif" border="0" align="middle" />
