Bughunt

I can't find a way to do this, is there any?

Also, after I playtest my game, when I save, a message comes up:

"Not enough memory" (translation)

Halp?

You can rename event sheets in the dialog where you add and remove them from the list. Single click a selected item to rename it, like renaming a file in windows explorer.

Can you send me your .cap that runs out of memory? I need to be able to reproduce it.

Hm, I'll try and send it later. In the meantime, I have another problem <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" />. How can I set for example the layer opacity to a variable? Sorry for bombarding you with questions <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" />.

Under the 'Layers' category in the System object for both actions and expressions, you'll find 'Set opacity' and 'Get opacity'.

Aaah, now I see what thats for! I really appreciate your help, I plan a large-scale project and your help is really great <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" />.

But when I use Global(variablehere) it says: variable here is not a recognised expression...

Variables go in single quotes, eg. Global('Myvar'). You should try the ghost shooter tutorial, it teaches you things like this <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" />

Ah! I tried quotes, but I didn't think of single quotes <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt=":D" title="Very Happy" />. Thanks!

Setting layer opacity doesnt seem to work for me.

+On Layout

: Set layeropacity of layer 4 to 10

Doesnt seem to work...

A bug. Should be fixed in next build.

It is. Thanks! <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" />

I found another bug. The function is ceil(0), right?

"( is not allowed after ceil"

How does the random function work?

Woops, 'ceil' is fixed for next build. In the mean time, a workaround is that floor(N + 0.5) is equivalent to ceil(N), so use that. Random works like so:

random(N) generates 0-N not including N, i.e. random(4) could give 0, 1, 2 or 3. random(1.0) generates a random floating point (decimal) value between 0 and 1, so you can also say 50 * random(1.0), which will give you literally any number between 0 and 50.

For random between two numbers just add to a random number:

50 + random(50) gives between 50-100 for example.

Many many thanks! I'm really starting to get comfortable working with Construct and I will try my best at helping you find bugs. <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" />

For some reason, subevents affect FPS very much.

If I have:

+On 1

+On a :

+On b :

it is alot slower than this:

+On 1

+On a :

+On 1

+On b :

That shouldn't be true. How are you measuring FPS (the built in one?), and what kind of difference do you get? Can you send me a .cap that demonstrates one being slower than the other to ashley@scirra.com? Thanks.

I sent an email.
