  • No, don't rebuy just yet, that's unfair. Go email Tom at to discuss your issue.

    I'm not sure if you can convert it to the website version & I doubt that it is possible but only think of rebuying after you have discussed your issue with Tom . He replies within 24-hours.

  • Cipriux - Ohh, yeah. I forgot about that. I don't use that so I didn't remember. Thanks

  • Problem Description

    Okay, first I made a general discussion before asking if anyone has experienced sudden change of active layers or objects changing z-orders / layers unexpectedly.

    Here: viewtopic.php?f=146&t=181112&hilit=+layer

    It happened to me unexpectedly for a long time, I believe more or less 6 months. I always encounter this bug and don't know the reason until now.

    This is actually annoying if you drag & drag objects from your projects bar in a fast pace which I do while I'm in a hurry.

    At first I thought it was a glitch that happens when C2 refreshes after a task but I was unsure & I now know that I was wrong, good thing I didn't make

    a bug report on that.

    Now, I'll explain the bug.

    1) The bug happens when you have a multiple docked document bars placed beneath each other.

    2) For example, A Layer Bar beneath a Project bar. (Remember to dock the Multiple Document Bars to the right, but regardless the bug is still produced. It is just for the higher chance of reproducing the bug since I have tested it already.)

    3) Make Sure the Project Bar is in front since it's pointless if the project bar is beneath since it doesn't have any obvious selecting features that reacts to the bug.

    4)Dock the Properties Bar to the Left Side to see the change of Layer.

    5)Add many layers, 12 will suffice. As long as the layer bar is filled with layers for higher chance of reproducing the bug.

    6) Now Select and Drag the Sprite to the Projects Bar but still hold the sprite.

    7)Move the Cursor up and down while holding the sprite.

    8)Now you will notice in the properties bar that the active layer is changing.

    Note: This also happens with the Z-Order, you can move an object to another layer with the bug

    Attach a Capx

    Description of Capx

    It's explained above.

    Steps to Reproduce Bug

    1) The bug happens when you have a multiple docked document bars placed beneath each other.

    2) For example, A Layer Bar beneath a Project bar. (Remember to dock the Multiple Document Bars to the right, but regardless the bug is still produced. It is just for the higher chance of reproducing the bug since I have tested it already.)

    3) Make Sure the Project Bar is in front since it's pointless if the project bar is beneath since it doesn't have any obvious selecting features that reacts to the bug.

    4)Dock the Properties Bar to the Left Side to see the change of Layer.

    5)Add many layers, 12 will suffice. As long as the layer bar is filled with layers for higher chance of reproducing the bug.

    6) Now Select and Drag the Sprite to the Projects Bar but still hold the sprite.

    7)Move the Cursor up and down while holding the sprite.

    8)Now you will notice in the properties bar that the active layer is changing.

    Observed Result

    A Document Bar behind another document bar is still selected when dragging an object on it.

    Expected Result

    A Document behind another document bar should be locked and the user shouldn't be able to select any content on the covered document bar.

    Affected Browsers

    • Chrome: Yes
    • FireFox: Yes
    • Internet Explorer: Yes
    • Nw.js: Yes

    Operating System and Service Pack

    Windows 8.1 64-bit

    Construct 2 Version ID

    Construct 2 r235 Beta Release

  • erickson400 - Get the website version! Steam has a lot of bloatware that sometimes interrupts Construct 2. Construct 2 also sometimes crash / lag there caused by Steam related problems, that's just what I heard from the others though.

    It is better to have your program in an independent state than having 2 programs run just to open 1.

  • I am not a fan of Cocoon.IO but have you tried compiling there? I heard IOS works there.

  • This is very great . But with this, I think there are advantages & disadvantages.

    Advantages:

    1)Easier to share .capx as you suggested.

    2)Faster replies like messenger, so we feel connected with the people we talk with.

    3)Better Community

    4)More Active Members since we can be notified or messaged.

    5)We can just ask instantly to online members.

    6) Good cause we find ways to innovate

    Disadvantages:

    1) There will be less people to ask in the How Do I category of the Scirra Forum. If that happens:

    2) The Forum might lose active members, and if that happens,

    3) There will be lesser new topics, and if that happens,

    4) There will be less solved topics in the forum. And there will be fewer guides for people who are still learning or have similar solved problems with other people but aren't shared

    since it is solved using a chat application. So the solutions for problems won't be indexed by Google and the content will be hard / impossible to find.

    5) As I said, fewer Google Searched Solved Topics linked from the Scirra Forum. Lesser documentations.

    Well this is just what I think. But good thing you though of this, though.

  • Wow (out of the topic). I was looking for that properties option before. I thought it was removed after disappearing from the properties bar on clicking sprites).... I did not know it can only be opened when creating object.

    (in the topic) I think there was a feature of that before. I think it was removed. I am not sure though because it was way back 2014 & I was just a noob back then and I have no idea how to use the interface at that time.

  • lucid -

    Hello, do you have documentations for these? I don't know what they mean or unit values they present. Can you give me a short detail for each? Thanks.

    1)Animation Length

    2)BlendRatio

    3)Key

    4)PlayTo

    5)PlayToTimeLeft (is it in ms?)

    6)secondAnimationName

    7)SoundPanning

    8)time (is it in ms?)

    9)timeRatio (Is it by "1.0 (normal)" , 2.0 (double-time)" ?)

    10)speedRatio (Is it by "1.0 (normal)" , 2.0 (double-time)" ?) (How does this relate with time ratio?)

    11)val

    Btw: The "Opacity" expression has it's duplicate.

  • You have placed in the wrong forum category.... It should be here:

    It's not that I disfavor your observation. It's just that the website's homepage has nothing to search to. The contents are fewer than you think.

    There is the Tutorial, Manual, Store, Arcade, Blog & Forum that is loaded with contents & has it's own google custom search engine, which is more convenient organized that way, for me.

    Btw, if you scroll down. You will see the various link of sites / site map that you'll need in exploring the website, including the Construct 2 download site & pricing.

    I hope that justifies that .

  • Have you even searched? :p

    I think he is referring to the visual part of the Line of Sight. The visual cone of view.

    dieblume86

    Here you can get your information here:

  • RobertoFreemano - There are many ways including using 3rd party C2 plugins. But the easiest way is if you are compiling/building your game using IntelXDK is to import the cordova plugin : "Insomia".

  • Guys, does an app stop (stop time) or pause automatically when an interstitial or reward video admob ad is shown?

    Or am I the one who stops the game time by event?

    Yeah, as others would say 'test it to find out' but it's easier to ask here.

    So does it?

    Thanks.
