  • I looked for the most appropriate forum to put this in and figured this would be it, rather than replying to tutorial authors.

    I really respect and appreciate anyone who takes the time to post a tutorial, I've contributed a couple times myself, but in my opinion it's not good form to post tutorials with capx files that were created using Beta versions of Construct; I don't really mind if it's the latest stable release, though I guess I'm a little lazy in that regard too, but as far as Beta releases go there are legit reasons for why we don't want them on our computer in order to see a tutorial.

    If I'm shouted down on this that's cool, if my opinion is in the minority then definitely don't go with it; but I feel feel that the Tutorial section on this site should have a note added to it asking authors 'Please create your capx tutorial files only in Stable releases of Construct 2, unless there are specific features in a Beta release you're attempting to demonstrate'.

  • Might be better to post this somewhere else - the kind of requests here I believe are just meant for feedback on people's games.

  • MasterGeek - good stuff; vehicles look like they were created in an vector program originally.

  • I like your colour scheme (and I hugely apologize - I clicked on Report Post when I wanted to reply to it - sorry!)

    Great stuff.

  • I go to soundempire.com, load up a looping track, and if I can listen to one enough times repeatedly, it means I should consider it for inclusion as part of the game's soundtrack.

  • In my game I'm creating a waterfall using particle effects but I don't want it to run if it's not on-screen.

    What's a better use of system resources in your opinion:

    1. Comparing the player's x and y so that as they approach the area that should have the waterfall it then gets Triggered Once; then another Compare condition which destroys the waterfall once the player gets a certain distance away.

    2. Creating an invisible object that on collision is destroyed and starts the waterfall particles, and a second invisible object outside of the area that on collision destroys the waterfall and re-creates the initial invisible trigger.

    3. Some other method.

    The reason I'm not comfortable with the first way is that I want as few things running every tick as possible. Thoughts, opinions, feedback all appreciated!

  • This was very neat - you did a nice job and I could see getting students trying to learn typing into this (maybe as a break from Mavis Beacon).

  • Try Construct 3

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

  • Very nice touch to your work, Digitar.

  • Dave Hailwood Thanks for the info - it looks like I'll be doing lots of experimenting.

    stefanos Thanks and it's good to know this is a real possibility.

    mineet Thank you very much!

  • Hmm, the link worked right in the preview...

  • I'm considering using Construct 2 to animate the digital comic I've been working on (step 1 - finally must buy Construct 2). Very simple animations would be involved, but I'd include sound effects and music as well. I'm thinking about animated fog, smoke, clouds, fire, starlight - something to add ambience without distraction.

    I'd be interested in any feedback people may have to offer; you can see some of what I'm doing on my dA page.http://seothen.deviantart.com/art/Animating-a-Comic-380161135?ga_submit_new=10%253A1372022115
