Are you sure it shouldn't spawning the bullet at image point 1? It starts at 0 and goes up from there.

Also you might find it easier to do

Player -> Spawn another object

Rather than System create obeject

Same job but it will be a bit less code.

Also - check the image point on the bullet to make sure it's in the center.

Hope this helps - post back if not :)

Hi all,

I'm trying to setup a multiplayer chat game, where characters walk around and can send messages to each other.

I've got it working up to a point,.

- characters walk around

- can post a chat message to a central chat log

Here's what I want to do: when someone presses send message, the message should show on a specific character's speech bubble.

If I am host or peer, it's easy enough to set a message on my local object. if I am the peer, how do I set the message on the host's object / character?

I've been through the awesome tutorials but don't get how to select a specific speech bubble, if the speech bubble's ID is not available over the network.

Thanks

Hi everyone

Tried my hand at the Ludam Dare event this weekend and just uploaded my game DEAD LOOP

construct.net/en/free-online-games/dead-loop-18350/play

The theme for the Game Jam was 'Stuck in a Loop' and you get 72 hours for the Jam version of the event.

The aim of the game is to collect SAMPLES and escape the Loop Project.

The catch is that you can only collect samples from the remains of ‘Test Subjects’.

Death is not the end. It’s just part of a LOOP.

You’ll start over and have another chance to find the SAMPLES you need.

Thanks for the latest version of Construct 3. The work is very much appreciated.

I'm playing around with the awesome new Scene graph feature and trying to figure out what the advantages are of it over Pin.

So far, I can see:

1. You can scale objects based on the parent

2. You don't need to add the pin behaviour, as parent / child are built in

3. The lag issue in pin has been fixed

I saw the skeleton example, which looked a lot like the type of things you do in Spriter etc.

But what are the other pros of scene graph over the 'old' pin? Pin got pretty advanced in it's old age, with angle, x,y etc.

EDIT: Starting to get it more now. If I create a character with say two legs, you can't rotate the legs independently using pin. But with scene graph, the children can move like they do in the skeleton example.

EDIT 2: The scaling of sprites connected with scene graph is awesome!

Thanks!

Tom
