  • No. The steam api should not have anything to do it.

    You could (and probably should) add a TURN server to your ICE servers list to facilitate better connectivity across the internet.

    TURN server services are normally not free, but I believe there are some limited use ones out there you can try for free to see if they resolve your connection issues.

  • A container might be useful as well to associate the player sprite with the helper sprite and assist with picking.

  • I'd use an invisible helper sprite, horizontally positioned relative to the current velocity of your player object times the time it takes to change lanes. Use this object to test for collisions at the destination.

    You would replace your player object with this helper object in function 1.

  • This is my first foray into utilizing a third party library - github.com/gorhill/Javascript-Voronoi/blob/master/rhill-voronoi-core.js

    The project file is here - dropbox.com/s/dr6abkphr8k4egd/Noise%20graph.c3p

    I have a Construct array of size n,2,1 where x and y coordinates are recorded at y=0 and y=1 respectively, while the x index is each set of coordinates.

    The script requires input in the following format - [{x:300,y:300}, {x:100,y:100}, {x:200,y:500}, {x:250,y:450}, {x:600,y:150}] - which I believe is a JSON array of objects (I'm also not particularly familiar with JSON).

    I've got another possibly unrelated issue where in the project the contents of the Construct array can be utilized fine in the project and when viewed in the debug preview, but when setting text to Array.asJSON the output is empty of contents.

    How should I best proceed to format and pass the data in the Construct array to the script function? I'm not against storing the coordinates in a different manner if it would simplify interfacing with the script, I'm just most familiar with using Construct arrays.

  • This is default behavior on android. For usability reasons, the back button should always consistently get you back to the home screen eventually.

    I believe you can interrupt this flow, against Google design recommendations, by opening a dialogue when the back button/guesture is called asking if the user is sure they want to quit. If the back button is pressed while the dialogue is open, it simply closes the dialogue.

    Basically make a situation where the back button is handled by an event/action of your own choosing at all times. Iirc there were also JavaScript options to disable the back button completely, but that would be decidedly unfriendly to your end users.

  • Normally you would have two sets of graphics/textures for your assets that the game option determines which to use, rather than simply changing the rendering mode.

  • How are you placing or generating your box positions in the first place?

    It would be most straightforward in a 1d array. You can increment the index in a loop until you run into an empty cell, or 0. Subtract 1 from that index and you'll have the position of the last number in a given set, which you can then swap with whatever you started with. The same loop can continue iterating through the entire array to swap every set of numbers it finds.

  • Chowdren is a name that has come up before. They have experience porting construct projects that have made commercial releases.

  • I've updated the example to include populating and displaying an array with the cell node coordinates.

    Unfortunately, after researching various Delaunay triangulation algorithms, I've found them to be beyond my ability to implement.

    I did find a JS library of Fortune's algorithm, which should work nicely. github.com/gorhill/Javascript-Voronoi/blob/master/rhill-voronoi-core.js

    Now to learn how to utilize external libraries in C3...

    On back button

    Triggered when the user presses the device's 'Back' button. Note not all devices have this button (e.g. iOS devices only have a 'Home' button) and not all platforms support this trigger.

  • I meant I suspect the official advanced random plugin was developed by Nepeo, since he was the one that wrote the blog post for it when it came out. But I think he's not with Scirra anymore?

  • After connecting to the signalling server, you can use the request room list action.

    Subsequently, you'll be able to use the on room list trigger condition. In that event, the various listroom expressions can get you information like if a room exists or already has one connected user (host) or not. Use that as a condition before allowing a user to join a room.
