  • You can try adding more points to collision polygons on the wall corners, to make them more rounded. And also to the player sprite to make it more circle shaped (ignore the warning about too many points).

    If this doesn't help, I would suggest switching to Physics. Set collision shape="Circle" for the player sprite and apply force in the direction you want it to move. It should go through corners much smoother.

  • You can add an array the same size as your tilemap and store the values for each tile there. If you only need 1 value (mining time remaining), you can use 2D array. For multiple values use 3D array.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

  • You can probably make something like this with multiplayer plugin. You'll need two applications - one running on the phone and one (NWJS) running on PC. NWJS app can launch programs and manage files, but it will not give you full remote access to the PC.

  • — You can resize the sprite in "On image URL loaded" event: 

    Sprite set size to circle.width, circle.width

    Or, if you want to keep aspect ratio: 

    set variable n to max(Sprite.width, Sprite.height)/circle.width
Sprite Set size to self.width/n, self.height/n

  • This is the standard Text plugin, that comes with Construct. I don't know why it's not recognized. Probably the file format has changed too much in 8 years.

    Try downloading release 82 here, maybe you'll be able to open the file.

  • I don't know how advanced these cheating tools are, maybe a simple obfuscation will do the trick. For example you can store the number as text with some random characters in between: "d9u5p"=95. Or replace numbers with letters: "V"=1, "X"=2, "B"=3 etc.

    And, a hash value will be not possible to find it in the Cheat Engine?

    Yeah, but Cheat Engine doesn't know that you are using hashing, so it will not be looking for it.

    See this demo:

    dropbox.com/s/y5oru3mfi1hwpco/HashDemo.capx

    It requires CBhash plugin.

  • Did you set animation speed to 0?

    Also, why webstorage?? This plugin was deprecated years ago! Use Local Storage instead.

    If something doesn't work, try debugging - run the project in debug mode, print the filename to a temporary text object, check browser console for errors etc.

  • If you need to temporary switch orientation to show something simple (like a splashcreen), you can fake it - rotate all graphics on the layout or the layout itself by 90 degrees.

  • I would probably make two separate variables:

    MusicVolume - a number from -100 to 0, changing with the slider.

    VolumeFade - a number from 0 to 1, changing with lerp or some other method.

    During the crossfade, set music volume to (MusicVolume/VolumeFade)

  • What photo? I don't see any photo.

  • One option that can help is protecting your sensitive variables with a hash. For example, every time you change Health variable, calculate a new hash for it. Every time you need to check if player has enough health, also check if the hash is correct. If the hash is wrong - you know that the player is trying to cheat.

    This, of course, will not make your game completely unhackable, but I believe people will not be able to cheat using automated software like Cheat Engine.

  • Don't know how to make 1 and 2, but #3 looks pretty straightforward.

    Simply add Platform behavior to the Japanese teenage schoolgirl sprite, Walrus behavior to Sgt. Tusk, Bird behavior to Clock-a-Doodle, and finally Physics behavior to the cat.

    Normally I wouldn't recommend mixing Physics with other behaviors as it can cause weird bugs, but I have a feeling this game will only benefit from it!

  • Did you purchase the plugin?

    It's pretty simple, you need to set the correct App Id and name in plugin properties. All essential events like "application launch" will be logged automatically.

    To log a custom event, add something like this when your level starts: 

    MobileFacebook Add Log Data Parameter "level", value: levelVar
MobileFacebook Add Log Data Parameter "lives", value: livesVar
MobileFacebook Log Event "level_start"

  • I did it before posting and it worked for me.

    Try again. If still doesn't work, share your project file.

  • Thanks! I was worried that in some rare circumstances it may not be shown at all.
