C3/Mobile.

I have the game taking screenshots, but is there any way to edit this so it only takes a screenshots of a specific area on the screen and not the entire screen.

Thank you.

I'm attempting to setup in-app purchases using C3's directions in the manual (link below)

I admit I have limited knowledge of this process and don't know where to learn more.

I think to understand the directions in the manual, I need a better understanding of in-app purchase and Construct 3 (at least I hope that's all I need.)

Does anyone know of a good tutorial, either video or written?

The YouTube videos that I'm finding aren't giving enough detail.

Thank you.

winstreak,

You Are My New Favorite Person!!

Thank you so much for making a video for me.

fedca, I've been wondering what 'systems expressions' where called - I will Google that - I've been calling it 'the Math' Thank you!!

Thank you. I'll watch it now.

I have a text object with a 5 letter word. The word is generated randomly out of a group of words.

When the player presses hint, I want to show the last letter of that randomly chosen word.

Is there away to do that?

The only way I can think of is to shorten and expand the text object, but that won't work because letters like W are wider than I. There has to be away to do a count and then pick the last letter out of the letter count.

Am I close?

Thank you.

fedca,

Thank you so much.

I can't believe you made that so simple.

Yes, I overcomplicate most things 🤣 🤣

Thanks again.

I know why it isn't working, but don't know how to get it to work.

When a key at the bottom is pressed, I want it to show up in the spaces above. 1 letter at a time, each in a different space.

The pink sprites are called 'btn_keys', there is a copy for each letter. 'btn_keys' has an instance called 'instTypedLetter' with a corresponding letter assigned to it. (The sprite covering Q is assigned Q and so forth)

Above the keys there are 30 copies of a sprite called 'space'. Space has 2 instances. The first is 'inst' and the second is 'letter'.

In 'inst' each sprite is assigned a number 1-30. And 'letter 'is a string and left blank.

When the player presses Q (for example) every square becomes a Q. Same thing happens if the player presses W or any other letter. Not what I'm looking for. If Q is the first letter pressed it should show up in the first box only. And if W is the next letter pressed it should show up in the second box online.

I have tried adding instances to the text. I've tried just 'adding 1' to the currentSpace variable without using the maxSpace variable. I've forgotten several of the things I've tried.

I know at some point I'm going to need a few arrays in this, but I don't think that will work with this.

Thank you for any suggestions.

Thank you for your reply.

I have this feeling I need to setup a 'for each' and store the UIDs somehow.

After trying several different things, I can make it work as long as the game doesn't close, but I can't seem to store which covers have been opened and which are still unavailable after the game is closed.

I know why this doesn’t work, but I know I'm close.

The player earns coins. With the coins the player can purchase different items.

When the item isn’t available it is covered by a semi-transparent sprite. The cover over the items has 2 animations, one is the cover, the other is a check mark after the item has been purchased.

It almost works. When I press the coin sprite, I add to the coins.

When I click on the cover, I am able to purchase the product, but when I leave and come back to the shop the program has purchased all the products. That’s not good. I only want to purchase one product at a time.

Any idea how to fix that?

This is a demo I made trying to figure it out:
