So I have this part where player collects a jetpack and an instance variable on the player sprite 'droid.power_jetpack' needs to toggle.

Default value = false.

Here's the event sheet.

First I couldn't figure out, then ran a debug panel and it looks like toggling the boolean is working at random.

I run layout like 3-5 times, then I see it works (goes to 1, when player collects the jetpack) and then run layout again and it doesnt work.

Been kinda frustrating for the last 3 hours.. about 4:00 am here <img src="smileys/smiley7.gif" border="0" align="middle">

Anyone knows why this is so!   <img src="smileys/smiley19.gif" border="0" align="middle">

Wow I was thinking on similar lines headbanging yesterday.

But looking at the touch count, it looked like touch starts counting from the first touch and I was wondering how I'd classify something as double touch.

Was thinking of having a variable that will record time between each touch and compare touch n and touch (n-1) .. although I still don't know if I can pull time in secs or unixtime into a variable.

Too complex eh :)

So the magic is "reset the variable to 0 every half second."

Thank you OddConfection

Btw, any use of why the touch gets counted and are we actually breaking something internally if we reset it? Ashley?

May be I should assign the value to another variable and use that.

Hi,

I am trying to implement jump behaviour for a platformer with touch.

Instead of having a HUD, I'd like the user to simply double tap on left half of the screen to jump left or right half to jump right.

Currently I have player left/right moving working the same way with user touching either left/right half of screen... but I dont see a event like "is double touching/multiple touching".

Anyone got around this?

Looking for pointers.

Thank you :)

Guess this is what happens if you blindly follow an example.

I am trying to get my player and objects to scale.

So wondering if the right way is to set player position to (currentXposition*scaleRatio, currentYposition*scaleRatio) and setting size to (currentXsize*scaleRatio, currentYsize*scaleRatio)

Anyone?

This should be sticky, I wish I'd seen it before..

Why are you setting this: "(LayoutHeight * scaleRatio - WindowHeight) / 2 / scaleRatio" technically the result would always be 0? Or am I missing something?

I tried to put it in my game prototype and used rex's debugpanel and I also get the values as 0

All my objects seem resized to same and centered on the screen.

Not sure what I'm missing. <img src="smileys/smiley18.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION HERE

The latest version has improvements made to my plugin by boolean that makes arrays display nicer.

Extracting it all I get is the runtime.js

and readme section in that file says copy playtomic folder into construct2installdir/whatever/plugins

Missing files?

Example capx looks good.. thank you :)

I'm trying to use this for a game layout of 2048, 1536.

1. Wondering of the "Every tick -> set position -> set size" done for menu_tile_bg in the example needs to be done for "every" object in my game?

Cos that'll be a lot of objects even for a single layout.

2. I dont see a on_click event for start_button, how is it working on browser when I click :)

Welcome to the Gang! <img src="smileys/smiley20.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

ok I thought I could get away without using the rectangular non-animated sprite <img src="smileys/smiley8.gif" border="0" align="middle">

Seems to fix couple of stuff. Thank you

Still player able to stand in thin air before landing from jumpthrough objects

Here's the new capx with rectangular nonanime sprite - Last Little Droid <img src="smileys/smiley17.gif" border="0" align="middle">

3 hrs! <img src="smileys/smiley32.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Good work dude :) ... you should see mine >10 hrs and still cant get sh*t together <img src="smileys/smiley13.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

Done.

Both via my personal account and business :)
