  • I didn't know that until now - thank you very much! I will definitely use it! I really appreciate your help ^__^

  • It is so amazing!

    But it creates perfect square cubes - what if I want to create a nicer background some sprite with rounded edges that looks better?

    For me to find out the size so that I can create a sprite that I will place in the background of the text

    Anyway this is great progress for me thank you very much!

    I just need to understand how I can know the information I need to put in the background of the text cubes background like in the examples I gave

    thanks again

  • hi hi!!

    I'm building a game that displays a lot of text boxes.

    How can I make it so that when I create the text boxes, the system detects how many characters are in the text box, changes the size of the text box according to the number of characters and lines there are, and creates a background for the box in a size that matches the created text box?

    I create a text cube and in it is written:

    "HELLO

    BOB"

    I want to create something that will check what is in a text box:

    1- How many lines are there? (2 In our case)

    2- What is the length of the line that has the most characters (in our case, line 1, which has 5 characters compared to line 2, which only has 3 characters)

    Now that I have this information I want the text cube to change its dimensions to the size of the row that has the most characters, and to the height that contains the number of rows.

    After that I want and creates a background for the box in a size that matches the new size of text box

    how do I do it?

    Here's an example of what I'm trying to achieve (pictures taken from a game called Lil' Guardsman)

    I thank you from the bottom of my heart

  • Hello Hello

    I need your help please.

    I'm writing a game that displays a lot of text boxes (which I write)

    And I want to check how many characters are in each text box. Then it will give me an output (for example that text box has 20 characters)

    Is it possible?

    Thank you very much this will help me a lot

  • Here is my version

    I can't believe you took what i wes able to produce in 23 lines of code and reduced it to three. This is amazing (I didn't know MAX existed at all)

    There is only one thing I have trouble with and that is the last line. which displays the name of the random variable. I can't understand the line.

    The part I didn't understand is: mid(list,random(len(list)),1)

    After we have created a list of all the variables that are equal to the largest number (MAXX)

    How does the random selection from the list happen here?

    My ultimate goal is that in the end the some STRING variable will receive one of the options:

    apples, pears, oranges, coconuts

    (Then of course I can play with it for my purposes)

    I would appreciate your help on this matter.

  • Thank you all for taking the time to give me answers.

  • Hello Hello!

    For the project I'm doing I need to compare four variables - apples, pears, oranges and coconuts.

    You enter a certain number of each fruit, and then when you press a button - the variable that you have the most of is saved as a new variable (we'll call it "biggest") and then you have a variable (biggest) that tells you what you have the most of (and then of course you can do whatever you want to display with it as text or image, etc., etc.)

    How do I create a comparison between four variables??

    Here comes the tweets - what if you have 2 or more fruits that are in a tie for the highest number? Let's say there are the most apples and oranges. How can I tall "biggest" to save it as variables and then say "show one of them at random"???

    Thank you. I'm trying to crack it and couldn't get to the answer!

  • Hi hi!

    Thanks to our great community here I've been able to build a few games and I'm planning to build a mobile game for the first time - an endless runner game.

    I would be very happy if you could share your rich experience with me about what basic things I need to know - and mainly:

    - How do I make my screen fit different devices? I read the guide at this address - construct.net/en/tutorials/supporting-multiple-screen-17 - but it's from 2017, is it still relevant? Are there new and better ways? This, I admit, is one of my main problems...

    Which aspect ratio is better to choose? 16:9?

    - How do I put my game on Google Play? There's a tutorial here https://www.construct.net/en/tutorials/publish-mobile-apps-26 but it's from 2018, it's super old...maybe there's something updated?

    It's the second things that mainly worry me at the moment, I'm sure I'll have some outstanding questions, but right now I want to research the issue in depth before I dive in and not find out that I worked and then I have to spend hours and hours to fix things....

    I thank you very much!! Thank you!

  • hi hi!

    I would like to play a video inside my game. I am having the issue of the video just being a white screen and not playing it.

    When I run PREVIEW it works great.

    But once I export it (windows) it does the problem of the white screen.

    At first I put it all as MP4. It did not work. After that I tried to split and did different versions (gov and wabv) and it also did not work.

    The videos do not weigh much (maximum size is 13MB)

    I have read the Video tutorial searched the forums but i couldn't find anything that actually solves the problem I did find one topic with the exact same problem as mine from 7 years ago and it didn't help.

    I'm enclosing my file here - maybe you can take a look maybe I did something wrong?

    I really appreciate your help! Thank you very much in advance!
