  • I like them so much I feel like giving them money every year or something.

  • As an example of a common use of the "on tag node changed" suppose I want the player to pick 12 apples--that is the quest.

    I make up a group, the appleQuest group and put a static applesSoFar variable in it. Any time the player reaches a node where my apple count is relevant (like someone says "keep picking" if applesSoFar is less than 6) I put in my appleCheck function. AppleCheck returns a string like, "only 4 more apples" or "one to go".

    However, in the Farmer Maggot dialogue (or the dialogues with his sons) I don't call appleCheck, I call appleUnhappy and they say, "You owe me for 8 apples." This is a separate quest from appleQuest, called maggotQuest.

    Is this the basic idea about how I track this appleQuest using functions?

  • Good work so far DiegoM, and interesting ideas from the rest of you.

  • 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.
