  • getAllAnimations() is an array. Here are the names of the first 2 animations:

    runtime.objects.Cannon.getAllAnimations()[0].name

    runtime.objects.Cannon.getAllAnimations()[1].name

  • It's actually officially supported in the API now:

    runtime.objects.Sprite.getAllAnimations()

    construct.net/en/make-games/manuals/construct-3/scripting/scripting-reference/plugin-interfaces/sprite

  • I would then need to add logic that would somehow move the spell already in the active box back to the inventory.

    But you don't need to move it back, because the spell should not have been removed from the inventory in the first place!

    When you assign some scroll/potion to the active slot, the inventory should not change. The item stays where it is. Only the global variable changes, and an image of the scroll appears in the active slot - you can even use a different sprite to make it less confusing.

    .

    That youtube tutorial you found isn't very good.. Usually an inventory system is based on an array or JSON object. All collected items and their quantities are stored in the array. When "I" is pressed, the inventory screen is dynamically generated from the array data.

  • You can pay every year.

    But no, it will not be possible to permanently purchase it, because it's a subscription model.

  • Have you tried simply copying this line (Ctrl+C) and pasting it onto the event sheet (Ctrl+V)? 

    {"is-c3-clipboard-data":true,"type":"events","items":[{"eventType":"block","conditions":[{"id":"every-tick","objectClass":"System"},{"id":"evaluate-expression","objectClass":"System","parameters":{"value":"LayoutAngle<180"}}],"actions":[{"id":"set-layout-angle","objectClass":"System","parameters":{"angle":"min(layoutAngle+90*dt, 180)"}}]}]}

    It should add the event. Then you will be able to study it.

    Also I suggest starting with some tutorials, looks like you need to learn the basics of programming in C3.

  • "Every tick" is a System event, you add it on the event sheet.

    Try just copying+pasting this code to your event sheet: 

    {"is-c3-clipboard-data":true,"type":"events","items":[{"eventType":"block","conditions":[{"id":"every-tick","objectClass":"System"},{"id":"evaluate-expression","objectClass":"System","parameters":{"value":"LayoutAngle<180"}}],"actions":[{"id":"set-layout-angle","objectClass":"System","parameters":{"angle":"min(layoutAngle+90*dt, 180)"}}]}]}

    I don't need to rotate sprite.

    It will rotate the layout, not a sprite. I suggest trying the second method with Tween behavior.

  • I'm trying for days.

    You should've asked earlier!

    Two methods:

    1. 

    On every tick
LayoutAngle<180
 -> Set layout angle to min(layoutAngle+90*dt, 180)

    2. Add Tween behavior to any sprite. 

    On start of layout
 -> Sprite: Tween "ang" value from 0 to 180 in 2 seconds

Sprite: Is Tween "ang" playing
 -> System: Set layout angle to Sprite.Tween.Value("ang")

    With tween you can select cool easing effects.

  • If there's a tilemap, you can use Tilemap.snapX(player.x) and Tilemap.snapY(player.y) expressions.

    Or use these formulas:

    x = int(player.x/16)*16+8

    y = int(player.y/16)*16+8

  • Wow, you didn't make it easy.

    and replacing the current active scroll, moving that scroll back into the inventory.

    Where exactly is this code that should move the previous scroll back into the inventory? Perhaps it should work like this:

    1. Check if there's an item in the Active Slot. If true - re-add it to the inventory, then destroy the item in the Active Spell slot.

    2. Move the clicked item to the Active Spell slot.

    .

    But to be honest, I don't like that the item is essentially removed from the inventory when it goes to the active slot. What happens if you pick up another copy of the same scroll - should it go to the active spell slot, increasing its quantity, or to the main inventory? How do you swap items in the active slot when the inventory is full?

    It will be a lot easier if the item assigned to the active slot stayed in the inventory. Just use a global variable, say ActiveSpell="invisibility". On right-click find the invisibility spell in the inventory, reduce its quantity by 1. If none left, remove invisibility spell from the inventory, reset the ActiveSpell variable to "". This is how it's done in most rpg games.

  • Could you explain how to add different items to the inventory, how to open it, steps to reproduce the issue?

  • No errors when using dev tools and achievements not working in Steam, can't understand why :(

    There must be some messages in the console log. Double-check that the code that activates the achievement actually runs.

  • - What to do in case of error when using F12?

    Depends on the error.

    - How to import fonts in the project?

    Right-click on Fonts folder.

  • Yeah, there's a lot of code and without the project file it will be really difficult to help.

    I noticed that you assign a tag "Active spell" to the clicked spell. But do you clear the tag from the previously equipped spell?

  • Try Construct 3

  • In the exported game press F12 and check error messages in browser console. Make sure Steam client is running.

    If there is a problem with Steam integration, there will be an error immediately when you start the game. If something is wrong with the achievements, you should see an error message when you try to activate them.

    And another little thing: I’ve got two special fonts in my game that I’ve downloaded and installed on my windows and linux. How to automatically install them when someone download and install my game through steam without installing these fonts separately?

    You can't install fonts on user's PC for obvious reasons. You need to import the fonts into the project and then select these fonts for all text objects.
