Description of Capx

If Sprite4 (green sprite) collides with an enemy, it can fall behind until it goes off the screen. However, I want it to recover once no collisions are made, up until some point (e.g. run faster than the camera, thus positioning itself towards the center of the screen). Try standing on an enemy's head to fall behind.

Steps to Reproduce Bug

• Stand on enemy head to fall behind a bit.
• Jump off his head to gain speed.
• Issue is, it gains speed even when it's on the enemy's head, I want it to gain speed only when his not in collision with any enemies...

Observed Result

I can't invert the "On Collision with Sprite" to "On Not Collision with Sprite"

Expected Result

"On Not Collision with Sprite" should be available

Hey,

Is there a way of doing something like:

"On [condition] thisText.setText(return value from [condition]" ?

Or I must save the return value as an expression and use it later on?

Thanks

If I understand you correctly, that's what I do now. I use JSON.stringify on the object, passing it to construct, and use yann's JSON to get the data I need.

Alternatively, I have some properties that return a specific property from the JSON.

Hey all

I'm creating a plugin for smartfox server (online engine). Some events return JSON objects I want to transfer to C2, so I stringify it, and "hope" the client has Yann's JSON plugin or any other plugin that converts string to JSON.

Any way to force my plugin to check for a JSON dependency, or should I just leave it to the user's choice? If he tries to get "Smartfox.config" for example, he'll get a json string...

Thanks!

Thanks all, I'll think about creating a plugin for this

rex, so it works both ways? I can use it to call a function on my custom js file (just the I can do with the Browser plugin), and call to the eventsheet function using rex_fncallpkg?

When you say "rex_fncallpkg plugin", I assume you're talking about c2 plugin used inside c2. how do I use it in my custom js code?

rexrainbow, I have to say I couldn't exactly figure out what your extension does or how to use it really... Any chance to simplify it a bit? I'm kinda new to construct 2...

So, you recommend just creating a plugin that will create the instance of the smartfox client, and listen to all events, and trigger conditions when relevant?

It's a hell of a lot of work, it has like 10 or 15 events, about 20 methods I can think of I could use inside the game, not to mention properties...

Hey Ashley,

I want to work with a 3rd party websocket online engine (smartfoxserver) which has a javascript API, and will shoot events to my custom JS code, and in turn I want the game to act accordingly.

Function and Browser won't be able to achieve this behavior, right? :/

Hey all

I want to create a project which is heavily dependant in external javascript code.

Can I call an event sheet function from external js code?

What about vice versa, calling an external js function from construct and receiving return values, for example?

Thanks!

Anyone? please?

Hey there

I want to create a game with lots of custom js code, but when pressing "Run layout" I assume construct generates its code again, so I can't really edit/maintain custom JS file?

if I call a function from construct, I can only test it after exporting it to html5, and then adding my function in there...
