  • Im pretty sure its based on the hotspot, so mirroring would not change the angle.

    Of course if you place the hotspot anywhere off the center of the x axis it's going to wobble when changing.

  • Mirrored would suffice for the opposite direction.

    I don't recall it pointing up in the video.

    It did change a frame if a target was higher or lower than the player.

  • It's a behavior. Put the bad guys in a family, and the behavior on the player.

    Its pretty much all triggers, no expressions cept the range.

  • It may not matter for what you are doing but having diferent resolutions can be an issue for certain artwork.

    Plus it allows a bit of version control.

  • Yeah, los with about a 45 degree cone.

  • What's wrong with that?

    Sort Z order

    Sort the Z order of instances of a given object according to an instance variable. This effectively removes all instances from their Z order, sorts them, then inserts the sorted sequence back into the holes left behind. This means if the instances are spread across a range of layers, they will be sorted in the same Z order locations, maintaining the same order relative to other instances on those layers. Note this action is much faster than using an ordered For each with an action like Send to front/back, so this action should be the preferred way to sort the Z order of large numbers of instances.

    There should be a bit more information on how to implement it if you do a forum search.

  • A service that accepts payments via the web over a javascript api.

    Knowledge of javascript to implement said api using C2's plugin system.

    A secure host.

  • I think the usual rule of thumb for that type of service is you go looking for them, they don't go looking for you.

  • Most likely an updater.

    You might check the app manifest and see if there's anything relevant there.

  • Fabric.js does pretty much everything C2 already does, so basically you're putting a car in a car.

    Then there's the Webgl counterpart.....

  • I was going to say just download the file, but Overwatch Companion is some app for Overwatch the game, so I don't know wtf is going on.

  • Sure, but it can't have a massive amount of people in a single room.

    I kind of feel like an idiot for not knowing about this limitation before. I have just started a huge project, based off of an amazing idea for a game about the story of a guy that gets trapped in space that will take way more than 100 events to complete. But seriously Scirra, I can understand not handing out Families and unlimited Layers in the free version, but putting a limit on the amount of events one can use? That's a bit of a cheap move. Some of us just want to make a cool game or two without paying an insane amount of money for a platform. Thank you for making Construct 2, great program, but I'm kind of miffed about this event thing.

    Im sorry, could you define what "cheap move" means?

  • You should take a look at image points and how they work.
