  • I would like to make a classic shooter, with ships that fight enemies and bosses together, they would be so great

  • I just played a game called snake crash last night on my android phone. It had a multiplayer button that immediately put you in a game against1 random opponent from somewhere in the world. It was really fun. I want to know if Construct 2 can do that? If so, how? I feel like if we had a couple more multiplayer tutorials (demo examples) made from Ashley, a lot more people would make multiplayer games.. Especially me...

  • Maybe Ashley could make an updated multiplayer example (using the shooter template) where an NPC spawns and you shoot it together like Ghost Busters, widdling down it's power until it dies. It would be cool if special effects also spawned when you shot the monster that both players could see.

    Also, maybe in the future, we could have a simplified version of multiplayer that's easier to program (with less options, just designate 'host' and 'peer' for certain objects, etc). But until then it would be awesome to have a multiplayer co-op example. Thanks!! )

  • Multiplayer is cool.

    Can someone please make a co-op multiplayer game, like contra, where the same enemy spawns and you each shoot it, knocking down it's power until it's dead.

    That would be awesome!!!!!!

  • TheRealDannyyy thanks man, fixed it.

  • For my future fellow travelers reading this report, and wondering how to get NW.js to work, here is the download link for the latest updated versions here:

  • zenox98 It works with the latest version, thanks for the help. Case closed! ))

  • I just saw the new version as well(updated 5 days ago) I will update as well..

  • Try Construct 3

  • zenox98 - also how does it not follow the bug report?

    I followed the provided outline exactly to create the report.

    Your provided answer shows you did not read it very thoroughly, you need to go back and read it again, slowly and thoroughly.....

  • Did you read the bug report?

    Try using Windows 10

  • Just thought I'd ask:

    I exported to NW.js on Windows, it runs fine (actually nice performance), but when I close it it leaves ghost processes running (3 nw.exe processes to be exact) which prevent me from reopening the program, unless I restart the entire computer or close'em manually..

    Is anyone else having this problem or found the solution?

    Thanks!

  • NW.js not opening after export!

    ____ Use latest version of C2 (r252). Export blank project to NW.js, kiosk mode (playing a game in windowed mode with the "x" looks quite unprofessional so kiosk is the only real option for distribution). ____

    https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JnNhgcLJs7MEbFvOczZvhEg-kfSmQPDt?usp=sharing

    ____ It's super easy to reproduce, and NW.js can take almost a Gigabyte from C2 AS A BLANK PROJECT so it took a while to upload.. ____

    Simply Open C2 and immediately export your blank project to NW.js.

    ____ Run the project. Close it. Look up your processes. There will be 3 leftover NW.js processes still running, preventing the app from ever opening again.____

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

    • Open freshly exported NW.js file.
    • Run the 64 bit version
    • Close it, then try to reopen it. Notice it doesn't open (I'm using Windows 10). And also notice there are 3 nw.js processes still running, if you manually close these (CTRL + ALT + DEL), it will run again. Otherwise it won't. Very unprofessional.

    Observed Result

    ____ Can only run NW.js exports once and they will never open again until you restart or shut down the processes manually ____

    Expected Result

    ____ Able to open and close the file freely and repeatedly for multiple user sessions... ____

    All

    • Chrome: (YES/NO)
    • FireFox: (YES/NO)
    • Internet Explorer: (YES/NO)

    Windows 10

    ____ Windows 10 Version 1709 / OS Build 16299.192 ____

    C2 version r252 ID

    ____ Exact version ID of Construct 2 you're using ____

    This Problem still persists 2 years later!!! it was never fixed. Looks like Ashley and Kyatric would rather ignore people than fix stuff. Sad to see Construct in the same state I left it, was hoping it would have reformed since way back then

    ^ This has happened multiple times with multiple different projects, Exporting using latest version of Construct 2.

    So, export a NW.js in kiosk mode + open it. Close it. Then try reopening it. It won't reopen. Anybody know Why?
