  Object list will show everything in the project if you use an event sheet that isn't bound to a layout (just make a new event sheet and include it in the layout event sheet).

  Doesn't Windows XP download service packs automatically? Why would people use old ones? If they are they are using old versions they're probably not gamers anyway.

  I'm not sure about the issue, but I know that you shouldn't have the "else" events as sub-events just place them beneath the other events.

  I don't know why it doesn't work. I think I did the same thing and it worked for me.

  nstallation:

  Download the zip file and put the Plugin directory with the csx files into Construct's plugins directory.

  Quote from previous link.

  Unzip it and put the files into your plugins folder (which is in your construct folder).

  I usually just load/save to:

  apppath+"data\save"+str(variable)

  Which could end up being save1 or save5 etc.

  Pretty sure theres no event that lets you retrieve the name of an object. In the layout editor you could just give the object a string variable with the initial string being its name. Then compare the variable in the event sheet to do whatever.

  I tried doing the same thing for the .ico file is this correct?

  From the other thread:

  cur=windll.user32.LoadCursorFromFileA(r'C:\WINDOWS\Cursors\banana.ani')

  I tried:

  cur=windll.user32.LoadCursorFromFileA(System.AppPath + 'data\file.ico')

  I'm only using python to change the cursor in my game (based on python in this thread)

  I want to go to the "data" folder in my app directory.

  Currently I have:

  sys.path.append(System.AppPath)

  How do I rewrite that to go to apppath\data?

  The "input system" object might help.
