    Thanks for your insight, your suggestions definitly sound like solid workarounds!

    still I wish disabling collisions for tilemaps would be available.

    I get that collisions work differently, as there are probably separate collision checks per tile or optimized tile-cluster.

    But from my naive point of view I would imagine this should still be fairly simple to add to construct 3.

  • Is there a reason you can't disable and enable collisons for the tilemap object?

    This would be useful for my case where I have a large generated world, each chunk is a separate tilemap object. I want to disable collision checks for far away chunks.

  • thank you alextro but wouldn't this just test if the corners are overlapping?

    some more information:

    I want to check if a sprite is overlapping with a tilemap object (even if there is no tile at the given position). With the tilemap object I can only set imagepoints and collison polygons per tile.

    (I guess the best way is to add an invisible spirte that is behind the whole tilemap objects for checking overlaps?)

  • I know how to check by comparing with bboxleft/right/top/bottom, But that seems to be so many conditions, epecially as I use this very frequently.

    Thank you!

  • I remember seeing this video a few weeks back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCGELH9kPJ4

    this might be a overly complicated version of what you want, but should get you there.

  • I tried it but the way it is implemented right now is unusable to me.

    Proper Music streaming, scrubbing and resuming in editor and game is a must for me.

    Hopefully the audio-timeline feature will be get some additonal love in the future as it would be a great tool in theory.

  • I don't think that's the case from my experiments, it seems like it reflects correctly as long as it less than 100px in each direction if it is larger (scale/image size doesn't matter) it stretches. Maybe in the effect you mistakingly used pixels instead of scale percentages?

    But I guess it's a while since you created the effect, So I understand it's hard to go back. So no worries If you don't know a fix, it's not that important to me!

    Thank you nonetheless

  • thanks for the answer!

    When you open your sample project https://www.construct.net/en/make-games/addons/82/reflecty/examples/1/reflectyexample.c3p and scale the sprite (sprite3) that has the reflecY effect in editor.

    Now if you press play the reflections are offset and stretched.

    So it seems that the sprite with reflectY only reflect correctly at very specific sizes. Maybe I am misundestanding something fundamentally about this effect.

  • Hey Mikal,

    I really love your effect.

    I only have one problem, if I scale the sprite with relfectY on it the reflection gets distorted (also happens in your sample project).

    I don't understand how to keep the reflection 1:1 and I tried alot of things for example: if the sprite hast to be at 100%, square etc. but it seems somewhat random?

    Is there something I am missing?

    or does anyone else know?

    thank you!

  • yea multiplayer/online stuff gets complicated fast.

    If you have a server you could also use the ajax plugin to send and receive data but still far from easy.

  • maybe this official tutorial helps, I'm not sure if it's exactly what you want, as I assume you want to have an external server and not peer to peer.

  • wdym,as far as I know the drawing editor was never meant to create final art in, mostly to do quick changes and prototype assets and it's perfect for that.

    I think you should create the final art assets in an external software and import.
