  • XHXIAIEIN Thanks for at least SOME help, but I can't quite wrap my head around the touch thing. I was looking to use the mouse cursor, not touch, and the examples (both on c2 and c3) only show how to scale a layout, not the layer.

    If I need to test any of these, I would need a touchscreen monitor for these.

    Can you make a project, where you scale the LAYER with Ctrl+wheel and you drag with the continuous left-click, and send it to me?

  • As the title suggests, I'm trying to make it, so you can drag the layout using a mouse, with the exception of the fact that the main layer "occasionally" zooms in and out, while the background layer stays completely still (and so does the front one (usually UI)).

    First, I tried using the "drag n drop" object method, but it didn't work. I tried everything and then said "duck it, I'm gonna find some help"

    I found an official tutorial explaining I should use global variables instead. I even added the Y thing (like the tutorial mentioned) and it works flawlessly. However, when I zoom out, it's very slow, zoom in like 5 times -- too fast. I tried everything (changing up the parameters, placing some math symbols, wrapping variables in brackets) but nothing works like needed, it either teleports or flies away, never to be seen (ok that's dramatic).

    I even found a forum, having the same question and I thought the problem is solved, me happy, case closed... but no. The Google drive link has expired and I can't even download the file. Turns out it's from over 9 years ago, so it didn't help me at all.

    Now I'm here... How can I drag the layer without it suddenly being too slow or too fast, while the stuff in the background is completely still?

  • Sorry, I already figured it out. All I had to do is check if the path exists. If it doesn't, it creates the path, so I don't really have to show you.

    But I will anyway:

    If you think it's not efficient, tell me another way to do that

    Btw, I used CCleaner and now there is 3GB storage free

  • I'm kind of an experienced C2 user and decided to make a survival game, that would save your progress in it's Roaming folder (just like Minecraft).

    The only problem is, I can't get it to work and I don't know why. My only guess is that my main drive is almost full (2GB free), but the files I'm testing are just text files.

    If I try the folder dialog method, it works, however.

    It's such a shame, that it won't work. Because making it so you have to pick the folder seems sketchy.

    Any ideas or are there any walk-arounds?

    Lastly, is there a way to compress folders into ".*" files using the file system?
