Construct uses the trig math method. There's no other reasonable way! If you thought the graphics card could do this, just sending the message from the CPU to the GPU instructing it to perform the calculation would take longer than just doing the sum anyway, so I think you're misleading yourself. It can't really be done any other way!

It's a limitation of the Box2D physics engine that we use (I'm not sure what units it uses). You can create a higher angular damping by applying an opposite proportional torque.

It's possible, but given that we're all volunteers working in our free time, we'd rather hit the big market. Someone else is free to make a Linux version since it's all open source, but I doubt anyone will.

Edit 24th November 2009: removed some bot uselessness.

Um, I don't really understand what you mean, but the GetImagePoint function factors in scaling and rotation for you. Image points aren't stored in VRAM, they're stored in system memory, so the function to retrieve it is fast.

Looks nice I think it'd be better to publish tutorials in PDF or HTML formats, because people will be more likely to be able to read them.

You guys are bad for my budget:) You have got me thinking more and more about the solid state drive.

How about a solid gold drive?

If you're spending that much money on a super badass computer like that, I wouldn't go with onboard sound, it tends to suck. You may as well get a dedicated sound card.

Also, they're expensive but have you thought about a 60gb or so solid state drive for running OS + programs from? I don't have one myself, but people with them sing about how fast their system boots, loads things, etc.

modal layout objects that are linked to a layout with effects glitch up when the resolution size is changed.

Did you report this as a bug? Manually changing the resolution would be the correct solution.
