  • You could set the volume to zero if you use a volume variable for all your sound events. Then turn it back on if you want.

    The sound events still fire then.

  • Any sprite you give the physics behavior to will do this, Apply a torque impulse with a high rotation resistance and it will spin and slow down.

  • If you can save one image you can save four. Can't you save 4 different images and load four? Like im01,im02,im03,im04?

  • I got onto the beta to make my own GPT. I thought I would start with a potion maker for D&D type games. It knows how to make the icon, the general image, all the stats and stick on a shelf for sale.

    I could make a dungeon crawl, with all the graphics (still frame obviously) the voice, the rooms and the fights and put the link to play out for anyone who has paid their 20 bucks for chatGPT. It is simply astounding.

  • In the pathfinding movement you can set it so it does not rotate to face the direction of motion.

  • Hello;

    The new GPT you can write using chatGPT-4 announced a few days back would be very interesting. I guess it would be kind of like copilot?

    I don't know how it would work, would it have to be written by people at Scirra or could just anyone write one? I suppose one for javascript scripts will probably be written for any general javascript programmer--but I am interested in how a GPt might be written for the event system in COnstruct 3.

    Since the GPT writer is still in beta and I can't get hold of it, is there anyone here who has access to it and can see if it makes sense to try to use it on construct event sheets? would we have to give it all the construct event sheet exanples and tutorial for it to "learn" how to do it?

  • You want to set the bullet angle of motion to guns.angle+random(-6,6) etc.

  • I built a vector2 set of functions. If I used them I ended up taking them apart for all the x,y calls all the time so in the end I am not sure how much code space it saved . If you are going to do it you may want sets of vectors for the parts of the moveto and pathfinder and collision outline type sets you end up working with.

    Find intersection point comes up a lot.

    I am not sure if you want a behavior or not, mine were just a bunch of stand alone functions.

    good luck in any case.

  • I couldn't figure out what start was. I clicked the mouse and hit some keys but nothing happened.

  • Assign the turret family a hit variable, call it turhits. when your turret gets hit, up turhits by 1. create a text object called showhits. It is a small square that holds a number from 0 to 3.

    Every tic delete all showhits. For each turret then create a showhits text object and put it on top of the turret (or close where you want the number of hits to show). write that turrets turhits variable into the showhits text object.

    This looks like it is a waste of computer time but it will work fine and you will never see it slow you down by even a single frame.

  • Are the child objects on a different layer? Does that layer exist in all your layouts?

    If you are creating objects with children on layers that don't exist is some layouts it could have effects like you are seeing.

    Just something else you might want to check.

  • Thanks for the example, its exactly how i want it to work! Can you share a project file or a screenshot of the pathfinding - moveto loop?

    yes I will send the loop to you. This was from a few years back so I will have to dig it up. The hard was getting the spot between moveto nodes where the movement points end. Thats where the path changes from green to yellow to red in the example. Also, it gets much more complicated if you have different movement rates over different terrains. I think I just assumed it was all the same rate. It may take me a while to find it.
