  Cheers for your time guys! I agree, I think the second one is a good idea as you both recommended.

  So I have 3 timers all with the same tag & would like to know if it's at all possible to pick the one with the lowest duration left?

  I am using the timer behavior for clarification.

  Figured out a work around almost right after posting this, I just made the sprite I am using square & centred the long image I am using.

  Hi, I'm using an image for my particle emitter with an attached object but the aspect ratio is always set to square & therefore squishes the image. Is this just how particles work or am I missing something obvious?

  you can also create a css file and load it at the start of your project. Then you can use the exact css code from other sources. Although css code only works on form controls, not other construct objects like the text object.

  see the sample below for how I load css.

  Thanks for the replies everyone I went for this in the end, it works like a charm! 😊

  Hi there I am trying to change the selection color when the text in the textinput object is selected, I am using the code in this tutorial - not sure where I am going wrong though. w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_text_selection.asp

  I have input mine as follows -> TextInput: Set CSS style "selection" to "background:#7046B3"

  So I've spent the last couple of days putting together a little test project to see if I can get an inventory system working & I believe I am 99% of the way there.

  The issue I am having is that when the same item dropped on another of itself the excess value should be displayed on the item's text object when it's returned to it's previous position (it's in a container). I've tried various methods of picking the other but cannot seem to get it.

  I have it set up so you can change the value manually on the item (on item clicked) so I know it's value has been updated correctly, just not the text object itself.

  Here's the project file, I've bookmarked the issue & notated everything.

  Hmm I've tried this out & it doesn't appear to be giving the expected result. Perhaps I am implementing it wrong?

  So it says it mostly in the title, I am using the timer behaviour on my object (a button) & want to display the timer as a countdown with milliseconds, however my math isn't quite adding up.

  I have a test version here that I feel like I'm 90% of the way on. But after a poor night of sleep & long day at work I am too foggy brained to solve myself. If someone could be so kind as to nudge me the right direction that would be most excellent!

  Hi, I was wondering what the best practice would be for handling many sound effects overlapping each other. Without it becoming a horrible mess or becoming too loud.

  In for example a tower defence or shooter style game where many towers or enemies are shooting at the same time.

  Thanks.

  Ah ha! Works a treat, I'll have to study it somewhat to get a grasp on how the code functions but I think I have an idea from the quick skim I gave it.

  Thank you so much for your help, very kind!
