Why is it giving you trouble? I'd think that anything you do yourself to implement overlapping checks would be inferior to what C2 does internally.

nimos100 thanks for the thoughts. I'd say my PC is pretty stable in general, I don't really notice other apps freezing but then it's C2 I use the most. I have an SSD (few years old now) as my Windows drive, and C2 is installed on it, but I've no reason to think that's the issue. I'll keep note if other apps freeze.

Colludium that's a bit to ponder. I guess I do use a few 3rd party plugins.. I generally work on 2-3 apps that are a few months old, so hard to say if it happens with 'new' apps. The only new stuff I do is for examples on the forum and they are just minutes at a time (although from memory it has happened with those as well). On this particular app I have backups off at the moment but previously they would save to a NAS. No I don't save Word docs in the project folder.

One thing I didn't mention is that I work off caproj not capx, which I'm guessing is the norm.

Is anyone else having issues with C2 freezing up? I mean completely hang, where it needs to be killed.

Happens to me at least once a day, often 2-3 times, and just happened twice in the last half hour. It's happened across many versions (months), stable and beta alike, and naturally causes me to lose work and the hassle of recovering from autosave. I have auto save set at 20 min but apparently it didn't autosave at all this morning, so tough luck there (I checked, it is enabled).

I can't report this as a bug because I there's no capx to demonstrate it.

I just want to know if I'm the only one, then I can focus on my system.

PC is a desktop, i7 3770, 16Gb, GTX770, Win 8.1 Pro 64-bit, SSD drive

thanks

What tutorial would I have to reference? What is the capx?

If you choose File menu-> Save as single file it creates a single *.capx file of your project that people can easily download and examine.

Regarding tutorials, etc. you must check out the platformer sample(s) if you haven't already. You should get some hints about animations. Also search Tutorials and there should be plenty, I don't have a particular one in mind.

So does anyone have orientation successfully locked in their apps? It still does not work for me.

I tried cranberrygame's screenOrientation plugin but it breaks all touch events so I removed it.

I have full screen set in both XDK and C2.

I'm trying to lock my app in portrait.

Thanks.

I just has this exact problem, I'm going to try the net.yoik.cordova.plugins.screenorientation plugin

Never had this problem on Ejecta!

EDIT: OK, cranberry's screen orientation lock works fine. Nice.

See here:

The cranberrygame plugin seems broken now. It disables all touch events in my app on iOS. Is it still working for you?

Only play your running animation if the jumping animation is not running. Other than that, it's guesswork without the capx. You just have to get your states right. The tutorials should cover it.

No problem, if it helped in any way that's cool. I probably could've commented it more

Put them in a Family, add a Family instance variable ID, and for each Sprite type have a different ID (1, 2, etc), and check the pressed one's ID is the same as the displayed one. I think that will work.

edit: after doing this I thought you might just use the Nickname plugin..

2 families, a little more setup (2 lines per object) but scales better

All good here. Just seems a bit weird until you think about it.

Seems to say - If Chance is less than or equal to 1 and Chance is less than or equal to 10.

Nowhere does it imply that Chance can be less than 1.

I believe others have used the Paster plugin for this but I've not used it myself. There's a couple of recent threads I think I've seen.

Use LiteTween.

yep, or MoveTo, or do it yourself
