  • oh wow I've never seen those text expressions before! I guess I was expecting them under the text box object, but strings are generally used everywhere so it would make sense it's a system expression. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

  • I was wanting to see if someone would be willing to make a custom text box plugin that will be used in all future Varia Games titles.

    The main problem with the current one is lack of features that are critical for online interactions such as setting max characters, ensuring the use of a real email address (like forcing the requirement of certain characters, or the max amount of certain characters such as the symbol) and some kind of offensive language filtering. Not to mention there is no ability to change the visual look of the Text Box or even just remove the box and use your own graphic behind the text.

    I know a little bit of Java, but this would take me a lot of time as I'm still a noob Java programmer.

    If anyone wants to accept this challenge, I will forever be in your debt! (Your name in the game credits)

  • Ashley There should be some kind of error report option when an error occurs like most programs do. That way, people don't have to spend loads of time trying to recreate errors in new projects, which is sometimes impossible. I understand you're just two guys and I relate to that, so I commend you for the amazing amount of work you guys have done already. just something to think about (that you probably already knew)

  • Try Construct 3

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

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • How do I get the badge "found the princes"?

  • I'm now using r186. When I export and then load the same project file, I get a blank screen. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/530 ... screen.PNG

    I may try it on my laptop to see if it's a software issue on my desktop, although nothing has changed other than video driver updates.

  • I just fixed an error that took me all day to fix and I thought would share my mistake and ask people what they have encountered.

    So I was trying to use a loopindex expression in a "For Each x element" event. Not realizing (remembering) there is an Array specific expression which is ".curx"

    I spent all day trying to figure out why loopindex kept returning -1

    I'm almost surprised it didnt work, but I do realize its not really universal and is made for the system loops.

    Anyway, just thought I would share my lapse in intelligence.

    looking forward to some interesting stories!

  • Ashley I agree that it is comfortable enough to dig through events when they are properly grouped and distributed across sheets. (And lets not forget the awesome search tool and book marks!) The only thing that would amazing to have would be a hyper graph editor sheet that visually shows connections between triggers and events in real time like in Unreal engine 4, but that idea could be saved for Construct 3D

    Btw, a Suggestion section on the Forum would be really nice (for everyone's sake) you never know what kind of improvements these thousands of people using your program can come up with.

    rho Those are some good ideas. I guess I'm just used to working around these [shortcomings?], but anything can be improved upon. I can't wait to see what's in store for future C2 updates!

  • I have been unable to try any betas since I am registered through steam and have yet to figure out how to use beta in full version.

  • Wow. It's awesome to see the diversity in people's projects. I really wanna check out some of your projects, is there an easy way to play\see them?

  • I'm Just curious to see what the average project has.

    I guess I'll start by posting mine: ReVeN: XBridge 5980 events across 9 sheets

  • I submitted one today. It was a 1x1 pixel image causing the problem. As a work around I just increased its size to 4x4

  • Construct 2 doesn't like 1x1 pixel images anymore and causes the game to no longer load when exported. I submitted a bug report on this, so hopefully it will get fixed...

  • Yes I just started getting the Red loading bar of death on my project too since updating to r184. I only have 428 images after export. they are all of various sizes though, and unoptimized to use power of 2. Anyone know how to image loading error or what causes it?

  • I have figured out that an image is not loading properly, but the name of the image is just ".png" which doesnt help since there is no ".png" anywhere in the project.
