I haven't built an apk since trying this. I will do that though and follow up here if it works. I was able to post a score to the leaderboards though using the "run as admin" preview.

can you upload a .capx file so I can see first hand what is happening?

Yeah, if you are referring to the App ID, Client ID, and Client Secret. Also double and triple checked to make sure they are correct.

How I handle the performances on different devices is a settings menu where the player can set the animations to On/Off, also the background scrolling sky can stopped. Also have the clear background turned off because I have a background covering. That was the biggest improvement that I have done. Amazing differences in the fps since turning that one setting to off.

Also, play around with the "Compare two values" and have it compare the "fps" to a number, and if the number drops below your threshold that you set, have it then set the animation speeds, and such.

Also, you can mimick a resolution change by setting the canvas size to another resolution by touching/clicking a sprite/button. See image that I am posting. by clicking/touching the sprite8 on my layout, it would set my resolution to 100x200[attachment=0:2ipmrcvy][/attachment:2ipmrcvy] I hope this helps!

I have looked everywhere on the forums and cannot find anything up to date on the matter, but here is my issue. I have the new beta build of construct 2 (r185), and trying out the Google Play Leaderboards. This is something I have been trying to impliment for a span of days and keep getting stuck. I have finally got the scores to post! YAY!! But I cannot figure out how to view the leaderboards in game, atleast on the preview. I have my http that the game tests on added to my testing addresses, so that allowed the scores to post. I can't figure out how to make the leaderboards show up in game though.. here is some screenshots of my latest attempt. [attachment=0:1f8c38m0][/attachment:1f8c38m0]

This is the only thing that's holding me back from releasing my leaderboard update for my android app.

Thanks in advance!

Just a follow up to see if you have checked it out. I now have 11 downloads and 1 uninstall, though the uninstall was from me on my phone when I was doing some webstorage testing.

Hello awesome forum people! You rock, and honestly, between the forum posts and ArcadEd, this game WIP couldn't have been possible. I am in serious need of testers. I have tested the game on the HTC Evo running a JB rom, and a Galaxy Note, Note 2, Galaxy 4, and need to know if it is smooth on other phones. The game is a WIP and need ratings/comments/feedback on it. My Google account is saying it has only 2 installs, and those 2 installs have been me, lol. So, if you have the time and what-not please give this a go and leave me some feedback, either here or on the playstore! tinyurl.com/qt009

In closing, Thanks in advance and a quick shoutout to ArcadEd!

Hello! I am still fairly new to construct 2. I have been able to create a very advanced game. I am only having problems with a few things. I have it to where you can save the amount of coins and your own personal high score, though if you clear your cache on the browser or on your android phone, you will lose your coins and high score. Is there a way to use the Facebook plugin for that? I have read the Facebook tutorial, but I found it very confusing and hard to follow. Also, I want to have a leaderboard in my game, that compares everyone's high scores. For example, the most coins collected in a level : the top 10 richest people. I looked into the clay.io plugin and it looks like it forces you to sign in before you can post your score to the leaderboard.

So my [How do I...] is:

Create a leaderboard that is easy to view and post from the app without needing to sign into some 3rd party site.

Have a save game that will work in the browser and on mobile, so I can potentially add in-app purchases without fear of the buyer losing the purchase later on.

THANKS!

[EDIT] On the leaderboards, I am needing to know how to create more than one. I want a board for top coins, top speed, and one more that will compare another global variable. Thanks again.

How I did it in my flappy bird clone:

I add point to my score everytime I pass the bottom pipe

BottomPip: Compare X Less than or equal Broom.X (my x co-ordinate)

if this is unclear, I can upload my capx for the clone and you can see what's going on.

ijoin, do you have the Jetpack Joyride capx that you are willing to share with me? I have been looking forever and cannot seem to find it anywhere. Thanks!

Naxos84 THANK YOU!! Not only did you help me out with my current problem, you gave me some awesome tips for other things I want to impliment later down the road! Thanks again!

I am needing to save the "High Score" text to save on Chrome and an Android app, so when a player starts the game back up, he will still have his previous High Score.

I have tried numerous techniques with WebStorage, but just cannot seem to get it to work correctly.

I understand that I need to save the Global Variable "HighScore" locally, but I can't seem to figure it out.

I have read and watched all the tutorials I can find. Most of the WebStorage tutorials save different things, but not the high score, and the ones that do show the high score being saved, show it being done with a "top 10 high score" using an array and WebStorage. I am not needing to do that. PLEASE HELP!!! I am a noob at construct but I am loving the learning curve!

I am using three layouts: Start, Game, Game Over. I am only needing the high score to appear on the Game Over layout.

Here is my Global Variables for score and what-not:

Here is my Event Sheet for my Game Over Layout:

And here is a simple screenie of the Game Over layout being tested in my browser"

Thanks in advance, and if you have tips to offer me, please keep in mind that I am learning and don't understand too much.
