  Rad Racer was a third person Racing game on the original NES, here's a YouTube video that shows the kind of gameplay I'm interested in mimicking.

  This is more just a brainstorm post, but I'm wondering, how might everyone go about making a Rad Racer clone, any thoughts? I have a rough idea but it seems needlessly complicated and convoluted, so please forgive my crowd sourcing here lol

  Sorry if this is posted on the wrong place, but I'm seriously curious about what sort of Online Multiplayer capabilities Construct 2 has, if any.

  I'd like to make a browser application that allows people logged into the website to have an in-game avatar that can run around and will also show other people's avatars and what they're doing when they are logged in.

  The only interactivity I desire between players is basic chat stuff. Initially just dialogue balloons above the character that speaks. Is this possible using Construct 2 alone (along with any plugins that may exist)?

  Kyatric I did a bit of reading and it appears that the iFrame element isn't built to be able to scale its content, so the iFrame needs to the sized to what its displaying, as it can't be the other way around. Perhaps there is some more information I haven't come across yet, but that seems to be the info floating around out there about it :(

  first, let me apologize if this is a total noob question, but I haven't found anything so far...

  when I double tap the down arrow, my browser scrolls down. it does it when I double tap up, there must be some way to disable the keyboard affecting anything other than the game while the game is in focus... any ideas?

  Any chance there's a way to scale the page displayed within an iFrame? I'm actually using iFrame to load another application and I want to be able to scale the app to fit my iFrame, any ideas?

  I was trying that, but when I'd press update, the iframe would be removed, after reading on WordPress the forums said that this is for security reasons, and that's why the plugin needs to be installed. So I will try with the plugin next
