  • You can do this using Rex's date&time addons:

    There should be demo capx there as well.

  • You made a mistake adding those sprites into a family!

    They may be added to a container, but not to a family!

    These two features have completely different meaning, but many people confuse them..

    You should add objects to a container when they should be logically linked together (when they all combined make one big complex object). PlayerBox+PlayerSkin+PlayerAttackAnimation+PlayerWearable+PlayerHealthBar=make one Player

    All these sprites refer to one player, so you can add them to a container. This will make lots of things easier - picking, creating/deleting instances etc.

    Also, containers make sense when you have many instances of these objects. For example you add 4x instances of PlayerBox to the layout, and the system will create PlayerSkin+PlayerAttackAnimation+PlayerWearable+PlayerHealthBar for each of the 4 players automatically.

    If you only have one instance of each of these sprites, there is no point to add them to a container.

    .

    Families are different. You add objects that have similar features to a family. For example you can add all different monsters to one family Enemies. Or all different controls in your game into a family Buttons. This allows you to create universal events, for example: On Buttons tap -> Play "Click" sound

  • You often ask your questions as if you expect people to be very familiar with your game.. We are not. It's very hard to give you the answer without seeing your code.

    I'm guessing you should add your ships and fighters (and maybe other objects you want to show on the minimap) to one family. Move that ID from the ship sprite to the family level and update all related events.

    See this tutorial:

  • Tom, the thing is - without signatures and any info in profiles people on this forum kind of lost their identity and individuality.. Everybody look the same now (well, apart from the avatars). There is zero information about who everybody are, what they do, what country they are from, what games they make... If you ask me, this is not a good thing.

  • Tom, why do we have fields like "Occupation", "Email address", "About you", if they are not displayed in public profile? Could you make them visible?

  • Just set Unbounded scrolling=Yes in layout properties.

  • Could you explain why do you need to disable Solid for the floor under your character?

  • I don't understand what's going on in your code, and sprite names like "P1" and "G2" don't help..

    Have you seen this tutorial?

    gamedevelopment.tutsplus.com/series/make-a-match-3-game-in-construct-2--gamedev-12721

    It explains in great detail how to make a match 3 game.

  • This happens because the bullet can travel a different number of pixels on each tick.

    You need to change your code like this:

  • First of all, make a backup copy of this folder, just in case.

    Then check if there are any files ending with ".backup" or ".autosave"

    If you find such file, rename it (remove ".backup") and try to open.

    .

    Also, check this folder: C:\Users\YourName\Local Settings\Temp

    Sort by new, see if there are any recent folders with names like "CAP123456". Copy them to a safe place and check if any of them contain your project.

  • Are you sure the problem is in Construct2, and not in your PHP script or server or browser etc.?

    Have you tried requesting the same file directly from the browser address line?
