  • Exported a project to my android device and noticed all the particles are flipped vertically,

    has anyone else experienced this or know why it's happening?

  • Pretty cool, I'm impressed by the solid frame rate considering the objects. The character doesn't really seem to need 8 walking directions, 4 direction sprites would look better given the narrowness of corridors, but I'm sure none of the art is final. Very cool and very curious about your procedural generation with rooms!

    As for A.I. I think clever spawning may serve you better than good path finding but if you are curious about A.I. google Tiny keep and what they are doing with it

  • Hey there, cool idea.

    Just wondering how you handled 800+ questions, was it in a separate file that you pulled in and parsed or is it all handled by events? Looking forward to a translation!

  • So am I correct in thinking this plugin basically just uses excel as an input area, then saves as a .csv for formatting, from which you copy and paste into Construct 2 in the LOAD table action? And from then on you no longer need excel to edit?

    How much data can be stored? How many rows, columns? What's the advantage?

    If I copy and paste a bunch eventually I can no longer click 'done'

    Suggestion: maybe adding a scroll bar to the Parameters for CSV: Load table

  • Is this still the best/only solution? I'd like to know before going through the motions

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • Validated today, yay!

  • No, I'm guessing that means i'm not entered in it then and that it's too late. I've been trying to fix it all day. Fixed most of the errors from the first try. Still not sure about the "[Defect]

    The author signature does not exist in the Package file." I created and attached it, and now it says that it had an error while installing on the device

  • Paradox Yes, all forms are filled in construct. This error came while building the project and was also a reason for not being validated.

    Maybe it's the 'ID' field in construct. I'm not sure what it wants there Does it have anything to do with creating a security certificate and is there a guide for that? It was an issue as well

  • "Both an author and a first distributor must be required. Please check your profile infomation."

    What am I doing wrong?

  • I may have been too late but I did it. <img src="http://i.imgur.com/Kfxcxui.png" border="0" />

  • thanks guys! Now to figure this mess out..

  • Is it possible to get the x,y coordinates of an instanced object's image point(s) on the layout?

    What I'm trying to do : In the game you can place rectangular objects (construction) and I want to save the coordinates of 4 positions within each newly placed object to be referenced later by storing them in an array.

    I thought about having a toggle for when the object is first placed, which spawns a new placeholder object on each image point and saving their coordinates before destroying them but it seemed inefficient.

    Hence the question, is there a way to get the coordinates of instanced image points?

    My apologies for confusion in the explanation, will clarify if needed

  • Thanks for the quick replies, late game would suffer for sure. I'm interested if Construct could even handle mid-game and so far I've got two votes of confidence

  • I am curious if Construct 2 can handle a game like Corporation Inc which

    seems to be made in flash.

    http://www.kongregate.com/games/ArmorGames/corporation-inc

    There would be quite a number of instances on screen at once and I feel like performance will suffer terribly.

    Although my initial instinct is "maybe" I want a second opinion just so I have a better idea of Construct's limitations

  • It seems to be that I need a 2 dimensional array, width set to be the number of frames in the animation and height at 1 which will increment the number of times a given frame is chosen. Now because the frame is chosen outside of the function I need to know how to pass this information back to function in a meaningful way so that it will exclude those frames who have reached the limit.    Just wanting to make sure i'm thinking of this in the right way

    The purpose of this project is to learn this stuff. I try to give specific background because there are many ways to do things and the more scope you have the easier it is to see the best method to go about it. I debated posting expecting this response but opted to because it doesn't hurt to ask. If you say I have everything I need to figure it out, great! Did not intend any disrespect and didn't want to bother you anymore
