  • If this is one-dimensional array and you don't care about the order:

  • I'm proposing a spring time game jam to be "build a game using Dops tutorials only"

    Lol, please don't do this! These will be weird and crappy looking games :)

  • I'm guessing it's because the default letters are black, and you have black background.

    Press "Редактировать" on the left panel and change the color of the font there.

  • You need to wait for image loading to complete, before changing sprite size. Resize in "Sprite On image loaded" event.

  • FileChooser On Changed

    -> Sprite Load Image from URL: FileChooser.FileURLAt(0)

  • Are you able to add Cocoon Canvasplus object to a blank project? If not, you've installed the addon incorrectly.

  • You can use "Is between angles" System expression. Say, 

    if Player.Bullet.AngleOfMotion is between 315 and 45 degrees
 -> Player set animation "Right"

Else 
if Player.Bullet.AngleOfMotion is between 45 and 135 degrees
 -> Player set animation "Down"
...

  • This is a common problem, unfortunately there is no easy way to do this. You can prevent characters from overlapping to some extent, but it's very hard to make 100% working solution. Try searching the forum, there are lots of posts about this, google "pathfinding overlapping site:construct.net"

  • The only way to this I know is using a tilemap with 1px tiles:

  • vankiz I was replying to Mayfly.

    In your capx you are showing reflection angle for the white ball and it's not correct. In the real world billiard game the cue ball can only go backwards if you apply a strong back spin.

    You need to show reflection angle of the target (colored) ball. Once you get the angle calculated and shown (as on Mayfly's video), you can adjust physics velocity for the target ball to match that angle.

  • I finally did it! Posted all my example projects in one place:

    construct.net/en/forum/construct-3/general-discussion-7/collection-demo-projects-149701

    I would prefer to continue hosting the files on my Dropbox, this way I will be able to update them.

    If you still want to create demos for some of these projects - this would be cool! I will add your links to the post.

    Not all projects are worth making demos of course, you can pick the ones you like.
