  Use the CanvasToLayer and LayerToCanvas expressions. When the player grabs an item, use the expression to translate the position from the regular layer to the UI layer. There's also a "Is on layer" condition for the object, which should be useful

  You don't need to try to lure anyone to the wonders of unpaid gigs, just say you're making a game as a hobby and you're looking for a hobbyist artist. Lay out your idea and what you're looking for and you'll find someone in no time

  I think it's closer than we think

  And remember C2 was released in beta stage and it was pretty limited for a while. It took some time for it to reach the same status as the original

  I've done something like that for Ludum Dare: http://ludumdare.com/compo/ludum-dare-2 ... w&uid=2958

  It's a little point and click where you need to open 2 windows. The windows interact using Local Storage and you can click and drag stuff between them. You can download the .capx and see how I did it

  [quote:3ptbapg2]You said your blocks weren't created, but your blocks are being created just fine

  As a reminder, you can press F5 to test your game in debug mode, and then you can see a list of objects. This way you would have been able to tell the blocks were being created and you could see in which layer they were

  Then start debugging! What happens if you set the spawn position to 0? This way you know if it's an error in the calculation or somewhere else

  Yeah it would be awesome if our functions were integrated into the project, being able to name parameters, etc. Maybe C3 will include that?

  Only the Physics behavior has object-to-object based collisions, which you can activate via events. So as far as I know if you're not using Physics for this, there's no way to do it

  You can email it to me then: -removed afterwards-

  Here's his link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/kqbcv7vzzm076 ... t.cap?dl=0

  Wait so this is Construct Classic, I don't remember CC having collision masks... Anyway, sorry, I didn't notice this was in the CC discussion area, so I can't really help

  They used to have a way to attach the .capx when posting but that option is gone for some reason. Try sending it to me via pm

  You should also take a look at the Timer behavior

  Or even better, Rexrainbow's Duration plugin. It allows you to have timers running in each object, it's one of the most useful plugins IMO

  Without knowing anything about how your game works I can only suggest that you use the random() expression

  Is the mask set for every frame of the sprite?

  You can bypass the url limitation by putting extra characters in it like http*://
