  If you take a look at the system expressions you will see both LayoutWidth and LayoutHeight as built in system expressions.

  So, when you are ready you can set the Width of the sprite to LayoutWidth and the height to LayoutHeight.

  Yeah, I would take out the mouse code for sure, that seems to be the issue. Might as well turn off WebGL as well. I'm not sure it mattered if it was on or off in C2, when I tested it.

  I apologized later in the thread and tried to better explain what I meant. When you just highlight that one sentence it looks pretty ugly :).

  What I meant in that sentence is; Don't expect to learn if you are asking for CODE for EVERY aspect of your game.

  I'll edit my post to make that clear.

  Does you app have or use the mouse object?

  Did you use the non WebGL version of the batch file? I'm not sure there is WebGL support yet.

  With MoveTo you can adjust the speed.

  Here is a screen shot of the event sheet and the properties for moveTo.

  What about something like this.

  http://www.scirra.com/forum/how-to-make-bullet-follow-the-line-just-drew_topic53718_page1.html

  Look at the example by Roj0hound. Maybe you could do something like this, but make the path invisible?

  What setting did you choose in the cloud compiler under Application Scale Mode?

  If this is planning on being a iOS only app. You might consider using Ejecta rather than CocoonJS.

  I was actually thinking of this a few weeks ago as well. Lots of sites have those game dev challenges where they throw out a topic and you make a game in a week or whatever.

  Would be really cool to do. Ashley, what do you think?

  Glad you got it.

  I am no PHP expert by any means. In fact it's been several years since I did any real PHP programming so I am glad others were able to help.

  Also weird that I never got notified that I was tagged in this post. Weird.

  I agree with you man, 100 percent. Like I said, I have no issues with any questions if something doesn't make sense. My original post was not meant for users like you. It's meant for the people that come in here and basically just want a hand me out of how to make a certain game. If you don't want to take the time to try and understand how C2 works, then you are just going to struggle when adding to your game or when someone doesn't have answer for you.

  Looking at the code I can't think of any reason it's not working either. I haven't played with AJAX very much, but this looks like a bug to me.

  So, the second time through it isn't pulling the data from the intro.txt file, correct?

  Would that info change? If not, would it be possible to load that info once and store it in a global variable for use later?

  Or is this just more of a, why isn't this working?

  Can you post up a CAPX for us to take a look at? (Save as Single File Project).

  Otherwise it's hard to tell what's going on. Have you tried using the Debugger to see if the variable is in fact not updating?
