AFAIK, It's not a bug.. Downloading webfonts takes time, and obviously they can't be displayed before this time.. What can Scirra do about that?

Spritefonts are (almost?) always the better route to take.

in 2001 games only had 5 buttons? I think you're thinking of 1981..

tulamide is correct on all accounts.

"You are claiming Construct 2 supports all platforms like android, ios, windows, etc" I don't even see how that's relevant to your complaint. C2 claims that and it's true.

Tutorials are provided by the community, not so much Scirra (although, they've been nice enough to include some as well.)

Instead of getting on the forums (for your first post and our first impression of you as a C2 community member) and complaining, why not get on and ask for some help? Share with us what you've found and what you find to be lacking. You'd be amazed how helpful this community can be.. But you might want to approach it a bit differently...

I'm assuming you saw this: https://www.scirra.com/manual/173/iap and didn't find what you were looking for?

If the blur is permanent (not turning on and off), I would get rid of the effect altogether and make the glow built in to the sprite. Not using the effect will save on cpu.

Load it up in photoshop, duplicate the layer, gauss blur the bottom one. It'll look exactly the same.

read the manual. do tutorials. search the forum.

is that your layout or window size?

do you know the difference?

if not, find out. then come back and ask if you still don't get it.

and to answer your question: system--set layout scale.

If you don't know how to make a grid, I would really recommend trying something a bit simpler than a multiplayer sandbox... Try the tutorials...

I would like to know this, too... I have random thoughts on it which are based on nothing whatsoever, so I will keep them to myself.. heh.

5 events!?! R0J0hound you crazy!

crazy awesome!

I think a version of this will probably end up in the game I'm working on..

So thank you!

Well, I was more hoping just to get some more ideas on how to approach the situation. As usual, after a night of sleep, I've got a million more ways in my head to try out already, heh.

I'm not so worried about it falling slower (still looks a bit weird falling that slow and then filling up so fast with the spawns) or having a prettier graphic.. I'll get to tweaking all that stuff, eventually... Thanks, though!

when I run the capx (preview or exported) it doesn't look like the video..

EDIT: I guess you said the video exaggerates it, but I only get one moment of jerkiness (if at all) right on the initial load.

Not that I haven't experienced the jerkiness, I'm just not seeing it here.

are you changing the variable to "b" and not just the animation?

alternatively, you can check the animation itself instead of using a variable.

puntodamar those methods no longer work, both dropbox and drive have done away with their features that allowed you to host games.

EDIT: although, I think people with older dropbox accounts are kind of "grandfathered-in" and can still do it. I'm not positive though.

EDIT (again): it seems it's possible drive added that feature back. I haven't tried it yet, but instructions at the end of this thread:

use subevents to separate the ANDs and ORs

if x = true

OR

y = true

(subevent)--z = true | then your action

and the touch thing, yeah, just look at all the choices that come up when you choose touch..

there's tap, there's touch start, there's on object touched, etc... (the ones with green arrows are triggers, like the mouse click)
